husker rob Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 i think that he is going to be the back up plan if TR goes to ND Link to comment
Hunter94 Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 i think he should come on board, regardless what Trevor decides. Link to comment
Overland Park Husker Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 i think he should come on board, regardless what Trevor decides. No one should have to be a backup plan, but I'd like to have this kid cause I don't think Henry is going to make it Link to comment
MadcatNU Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 I thought we running out of scholarships. Can we aford to take both without under-recruiting another position? Link to comment
husker rob Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 FYI Brandon will be visiting NU this weekend on an official visit, and has NU as one of his favorites. anyone want to bet that if he likes his visit, NU gets a commitment this weekend from either him or TR Link to comment
no_name_needed_2001 Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 Aren't we running out of schollys? Link to comment
BigRedfxtoy Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 If TR is going to sit on the fence like this then maybe this kid is a better option anyway. I would love to have TR be N but, I think the staff has enough to worry about. If TR commits just because another recruit wants to, then, who's to say we really have a commitment at all. TR needs to convicingly commit or we need to move on. If we need another linemen lets fill the spot with the best "commitment" and try to move on. I know its never a done deal until sighning day. If TR feels that he has to commit because of something like this then I for one believe his commitment isn't worth the phone call made. JMO Link to comment
Hunter94 Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 agree, time for the games to be over. Link to comment
BIGREDIOWAN Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 I agree if TR isn't going to commit or commit before he's ready let's get someone else then. Link to comment
gamecocks Posted September 28, 2007 Share Posted September 28, 2007 I don't think anything TR says or does is going to make me believe that he is 100% N until he signs the dotted line. However, I don't want to let TR go because someone else is ready to commit unless he is of equal value to TR. If that makes sense. Link to comment
husker rob Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 FYI, Brandon loved the visit. Rated it at least a 9 if not a 10. Said that he is going to take an unofficial to Purdue this weekend and then make his decision. I think that the decision is already made and he just wants to take a look at Purdue to say that he checked out another school. He will commit to NU by wednesday of next week (IMO) Link to comment
HuskerKing130 Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 If this guy commits, will NU still accept a commit from Trevor Robinson, cuz i really want TR Link to comment
HuskerMan Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 I don't know but I think it would be stupid to pass on someone in your own state as good as TR even if Brandon committed. Link to comment
