Lack of coach costs Nebraska five-stars

Nebraska: Gain one. Nebraska: Lose one. It is fortunate that the Nebraska will be getting the commitment from a running back possibly before the announcement of a new coach, but the delay has cost them with the recruitment of a five-star offensive lineman. Taitusi 'Duece' Lutui is not only the top junior college lineman in the country, but Rivals.com has him ranked as the No. 1 junior college player in the nation.

 

"Yeah, I did on Sunday afternoon," the 6-foot-5, 370-pound Lutui said about the report of his verbal commitment to USC. "It just felt right."

 

"The Nebraska coaches - I just didn't feel I wanted to gamble on the coaches (at Nebraska)," he said. "I love Nebraska and the coaching staff (there now). I just think USC is for me."

I am going to start calling this board the "Go out and find articles and stuff

other people wrote and post it".

 

I would just post a link, then comment on the article myself. Start at least some kind

of discussion instead of just posting everything you find.

 

Just an observation

 

 

Anyway, it would have been nice to get this kid but I don't see it as being

detrimental. As every other year, some players will decide elsewhere for various

reasons. They have another reason this year. We have a month left to get some

more commitments, I think we have a little under half of the class left and I think

the class will be decent.

This is probably the first big time recruit NU has lost. I really think he was leaning hard toward the Huskers. This guy was a mammoth.

 

New coach on Sunday

recruits are fickle. maybe when he hears about the new coach he will re-committ. nothing is official until spring signing day.
