SkerMin8r Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 Some interesting comments at the end of this article. Makes you wonder what BC was saying to recruits on his way out the door. At any rate...I can't fault Gabbert for his decision. I say good luck to him...except for...well...you know... Quote Link to comment
mattbri17 Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 That doesn't surprise me. If they knew they were gone why would you try to help retain anyone. Who knows if Gabbert would even fit with the schemes that Bo/Watson wants to use anyway. I think that the current coaching staff has done a fantastic job of damage control with this recruiting class. Good riddins. Quote Link to comment
Spartness Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 I have no issue with Gabbert. I wish him the best. Quote Link to comment
Blackshirtsguru Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 It kind of makes ya think BC told Gabbert to RUN and look for another school. Oh well, what's done is done. I think Mr Spano will fit in very well here at Nebraska! Quote Link to comment

Like I said, I wish him well, my point wasn't so much him as was what he seems to be implying the previous staff was saying to him. In particular, "...they told me if they needed to call any place for me, they would...". Just seems a little "crooked", for lack of a better term. Quote Link to comment

Not that I want this to turn in to a soap opera like WVU, but I wonder with comments like that if it's possible to get some of that bonus back from callyclown. Until you are gone, you don't recruit for other schools. Quote Link to comment

This is just hearsay from an 18 year old kid. it would never stand up in a court of law and you know BC ain't about to say..."Uh...Yeah...Husker Fan...I was tellin' recruits of our foot ball team to start lookin' elsewhere. You know...it's probably just to technical for you."... Quote Link to comment
Apathy Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 I predict that Blaine Gabbert will be another Josh Freeman........he'll go 0-2 against Nebraska going into his junior year This ones for you Blaine Quote Link to comment
T_O_Bull Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 I wish the former staff well. I wish all the de=comits well. Its time to see the light and look to the future. What is in the past is just that past. Pitchers and catchers are about to report to camp. Fertilizer and lawn mowers have made an appearence on sales floors. A week from Thursday J-Dog and The Captain are heading to Palm Beach, FL. Spring is just around the corner and that's where I'm looking. Spring, JUST BRING IT. >>>>>>T_O_B Quote Link to comment

BigWillie Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 I hope this crap doesn't start up again so that the Callahan recruited against us rumors don't come back. Callahan and none of the staff recruited against us. If they did, they would have been fired on the spot, compensation (the money he got paid for being fired) would be gone, plus he would have outed himself from any future coaching circle. The crap just did not happen -- period. The point of it was, Gabbert hit the road before he even knew BC was getting the axe. He didn't bother to stick around while BC had a legitimate shot at saving his job down the stretch. As he said, he had Mizzou in the back of his head. Kid is a 5 star talent, but he has way too many doubts about any decision he makes, even the one he currently has. Quote Link to comment

You're gonna need all the help you can get recruiting in the St Louis area in 09. Illinois and Coach Zook are going to have a MONSTER year and you can mark that down. Don't kid yourself about Bo next year as well. He has already shown in just a short amount of time that he can "steal" Missouri's best LB! Quote Link to comment

I like it... Josh Gabbert it is. I would like to say that I wish him the best as well, but in my mind that would mean playing for the Huskers. For Missouri I hope that the kid plays like he did in HS. I don't know how he'll stay healthy against the Big 12 if he couldn't do it in HS. Quote Link to comment
