nebr_bob Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 Eric the Red - Whats up with this guy - saw it over on rivals R Jackson Sounds to good to be true Quote Link to comment
Eric the Red Posted July 9, 2005 Share Posted July 9, 2005 Player: Richard Jackson Hometown: Clermont, FL Position: WR Height: 6’2” Weight: 195 40 time: 4.78 Visit Date: Scholarships offered: Over 20 including: Clemson, Florida State, Georgia Tech, Miami (Fl), Nebraska, Notre Dame, South Favorites: Miami, Florida St., South Carolina Rankings/Stars: Rivals: #9/ Bid Red Report:NR/ Assessing the talent: Great size and upside as a WR who had 72 receptions for 1,272 yards with 11 touchdowns last season. His size allows him to get the jump balls and his stride helps him break away from DB’s. Tremendous ability to go up and get the ball. Most of his catches, on film anyway, were fly patterns and the QB just throws it up. Good power with a bench and squat over 250. He does play defense but won’t in college, but if he had to, he’s a very physical player. Odds of becoming a Cornhusker: 15% I think he’s really got his mind and heart set on attending one of the Florida school. Jordan is recruiting him and although he enjoys speaking with him, I just don’t see it happening for NU. He’s visited several southern schools already. Quote Link to comment

BigRedJake Posted July 25, 2005 Share Posted July 25, 2005 Love the big possession guys. Here's to 'im! Quote Link to comment
Lucky3000 Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 Coming from someone who follows Florida recruiting very closely, Jackson has bust written all over him. He has no breakaway speed, and the FL schools are quickly turning away from him. I wouldnt be shocked to see him take a out of the air school like NU because he didnt get the local offers he wanted.

Could you compare him to someone we have or anyone we would know? Quote Link to comment
Eric the Red Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 All of a sudden he is no longer visiting Nebraska because the West Coast offense,"didn't do so good," last year. Sounds like some negative recruiting going on here by other programs. Quote Link to comment
nebr_bob Posted August 19, 2005 Author Share Posted August 19, 2005 could it be the almighty Notre Dame? Quote Link to comment
NamelessHusker Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 could it be the almighty Notre Dame? No it wasn't Notre Dame, that's for sure. It was Jeff Bowden, FSU's offensive coordinator. He is known to use tactics like this against other programs. This is why i hate FSU with a passion and i hope Miami annihilates them Quote Link to comment
HSKRNOKC Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 This makes me wonder how much negative recruiting we will encounter this year. I guess that until we prove we can run the offense with some success, we will have to endure people like Bowden. Quote Link to comment
Husker19941995 Posted August 24, 2005 Share Posted August 24, 2005 He didn't know that Nebraska didn't do so well last year in the WCO... Yet he has ND has one of his top teams... Go figure. I say the staff should pull his offer if they haven't already done it.. Quote Link to comment
