illnino Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 Well, i asked on the Florida Gators Rivals Board about this guy, and i got a few responses, with one poster saying that he thought McBurse was the 2nd best player in central florida behind Andre DeBose. That's quite a compliment. Quote Link to comment
Spartness Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 He sure looks real fast for someone who is not supposed to be that fast. I like how shifty he is. Take him. Quote Link to comment
Husker_N_TX Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 If you look closely, he is averaging about 2 1/2 yards per step at full stride. Five yards in 2 - 2 1/2 steps is moving.. Quote Link to comment
BIGREDIOWAN Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 Bryan Munson was just on 1620 and thought that Terek was the most likely out of that group from this weekend to become a Husker. Let's hope so, I'd love for us to get this guy. Quote Link to comment

HuskerRob Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 this kid is an absolute stud. he looks great in the open field, and has good breakaway speed, playing ball in florida and never gettin caught from behind speaks volumes. this team needs more speed, on both sides of the ball, in order to get back atop of the big 12 and to compete for national championships year in, year out. I really think this kid will be a star if he signs with us. Quote Link to comment
DeathCultArmaggedon Posted November 19, 2008 Author Share Posted November 19, 2008 I honestly think that the recruiting services are playing catch up with a lot of recruits, in the sense that they haven't updated their rankings to reflect these guy's senior seasons. This is why Al-Terek is still flying under the radar, and why Cody Green is still a Rivals 4-star, despite having much, much better numbers than Russel Shepard. I think there is some serious "value", for lack of a better term, on our recruiting board right now. A lot of these guys should be ranked much higher. Quote Link to comment
macroboy Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 I haven't really followed recruiting until last year. Do they update the star ratings on a regular basis? Do people ever move down for having bad senior seasons? Quote Link to comment
chamrocck Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 Minnesota is jumping into the mix but I like our chances with this kid. Quote Link to comment
gmoney88 Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 Saw this on Rivals Football Recruiting Home Page (Free): Can Nebraska land running back Al-Terek McBurse? -- Mike from Omaha, Neb. ----- Bo Pelini is looking to land a back from the Sunshine State. This one is interesting because Al-Terek McBurse had a big senior season. McBurse, from Winter Springs (Fla.) High, averaged 12 yards per carry and rushed for more than 2,300 yards and 23 touchdowns in 10 games. In the season finale, McBurse rushed for 241 yards and three scores against Casselberry (Fla.) Lake Howell to break the Seminole County single-season rushing record, formerly held by Marquette Smith. McBurse's productive season makes him one of the hottest running backs in the Sunshine State in a year loaded with some big-time running backs. Heading into the season, McBurse had just a few offers. But as the season progressed, the offers really started to come in. He has made one official visit, to Nebraska earlier this month. McBurse is scheduled to visit Purdue this weekend and Kansas the first weekend in December. Although McBurse won't name a leader, he was impressed by his visit to Nebraska. He loved the offensive scheme, how they utilize the running backs and the coaching staff, especially coach Bo Pelini. If there is one team to keep an eye on, it's Georgia Tech. McBurse always has liked the Yellow Jackets. Another possibility is USF. But right now it's safe to say Nebraska has a great chance to pull McBurse out of Florida. The Huskers also are in the mix another Florida running back, Tampa Gaither's Jarvis Giles. He had been a Tennessee commitment, but Phil Fulmer's dismissal caused Giles to decommit. His commitment may come down to South Carolina, where he has had an official visit, and Nebraska. Quote Link to comment
HuskerRob Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 I absolutely love how we are in the mix for 2 of Florida's best RB's this year! Quote Link to comment
