Was Zac Taylor a goat??

Ok so I know I will get some stuff for this, but think about it. We have now landed 2 studs from Butler who probably wouldnt have even considered NU if it werent for Zac. So could brining him in all have been a big strategie to get these other guys, or as someone else said this pipeline? Wassup!!

I doubt that was the reason he was recruited. I don't doubt that it helped the other guys come to NU, although they won't admit it.

 

I think it that were true, we would have seen these other kids come on the map a lot sooner than they did.

If he was, why did NU wait so long to recruit Tomerlin?

Interesting....interesting. Possible. Schools have done things like this in the past. They have given a scholarship to an older brother because their was a younger one on the way.....Grixby??

They wanted to let it happn naturally to seem more real. Notice Zac was the 1st one to apporach JT about coming. Now how important was Beck telling the coaches they could recruit another QB!!!!

No, no I like this....what else do you base this on? Why Taylor first? Easiest to lure to Lincoln

[bigredtoad]

Sure it only makes sense. He ws the least recruited. And it wsnt very uncommon knowleged thta him and JT were roomies and good friends.

Interesting thread, but I think your giving the coaching staff too much credit there.

Thats crap. Deante grixby was awesome and the real deal. I remember watching him in the shrine game and thinking wow! Then injuries set in.

I remember when I was a senior in high school, I worked with several guys that played football for Omaha Central and Omaha Benson and they would go back and forth every day about Deante Grixby and Randy Stella. Both were awesome, Grixby had injuries that set him back and never let him reach potential and Stella was just a moron. The strategy of offering for Deante in hopes of getting Cortney is ridiculous because Cortney was 11 or 12 when Deante was being recruited.

There is speculation going on at the college that I go to that we recruit older brothers in hopes that their younger brothers will follow in their foot steps. but I don't think That a program like Nebraska could afford to just give a scholarship to someone in hopes that he could bring in a relative or teammate for that matter.

Maybe in the past, when we had a hard time filling out classes some years. But definitely not now.

I would like to think they recruited taylor first to set u p these other guys, but that would mean taylor was not their first choice as a QB and I am expecting Taylor to start the season next year. I hope taylor is that good and just bringing his buddies along who are also very good.
