BigWillie Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 Not for sure if Will reads this board, but he regularly visits one Husker board as does his parents. Link to comment
zoogs Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 I don't think we should sugarcoat for the sake of recruits. I mean, honestly, that's just fake...shoot straight and say what you want to say. That said, I would like to echo sentiments expressed by others that the comment above was way uncalled for and (I hope) doesn't represent other Husker fans' views. Come on...parents ALWAYS have influence in their kid's lives, and rightfully so. And you weren't really arguing for Compton to be an individual, because all you wanted was for Compton to come to Nebraska. These are not just potential Husker football players; they are young men who need to choose the path in life that's best for them, wherever it is. Treat them as such. Link to comment
TrumanBD Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 A lot of MU people are still holding out for him, but some recent stuff I have heard says he is leaning towards Nebraska. Apparently he wants his younger brother who is a stud wrestler to go to the same school as him. Mizzou has an awesome wrestling team, but rumor is the NE wrestling coach is coming hard at the younger brother. Link to comment
Huskerballz Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 Well I'm pretty sure it's happening right now, so we probably won't know anything till late Sunday to Monday. Link to comment
KCMOHUSKER Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 We could sure use him, I assume that he is at Sandy's having an Elk Creek right now! Link to comment

While I know you're joking, I hope he's not cause the last thing we need is for a high school senior to get busted with an MIP while on a recruiting trip to Nebraska. Link to comment
HSKRNOKC Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 Mizzous rivals site was close to putting him as a commit. I also heard the expression courtesy visit used. I hope his visit is a great experience. We need the help. Link to comment
lapaesl Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 THis guy is a future all-big 12 or big 10 guy depending on where he goes. we need him more than anyone else in this class. Link to comment
husker rob Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 Will really enjoyed his visit, was impressed with the direction that BO wants to get NU headed. Bo, who is Catholic, actually took Will's mom to church today no time frame when he is going to decide on which school he goes to, but it looks like it will be between NU, MU, and Illinois because they are recruiting Will to play LB, and ND is on the outside and may not even get a visit Link to comment

BigWillie Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 I don't think Illinois is really in this race. However, if Compton is only waiting for in-homes, it is damm good news because it would seem he isn't taking an unofficial back to Mizzou. Link to comment
HuskerHank Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 Anyone know what weight class Cody is projected for in college? I'm guessing 157 to replace Chris Oliver who is a senior next year. BTW, Nebraska is so fricken tough in wrestling recently.1 senior on the team this year is heavyweight jon May.He'll be replaced next year by redshirt Tucker Lane who is like 22-2 in open tournaments this year. After next year, we lose 125 Paul Donahoe,157 Chris Oliver, 174 Brandon Browne, and 184 Vince Jones to graduation, but there are guys waiting in the wings to replace them. NCAA's are in St. Loius for two years, then in 2010 when the guys like Kenny Jordan, Rowe, Burroughs,Dwyer, and my favorite Husker Craig Brester are seniors, the Huskers are hosting NCAA's at the quest center in Omaha.We'll be better next year, as we will be a year older, and some of the tough weighclasses will clear out due to graduation,but 2010 in Omaha might just be the year the Huskers really challenge for a national title. I hope Cody is a part of it. Link to comment
