huskers1 Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 To me if he is here for spring ball it's really not that big of a deal. He would have been a nice addition for some speed on the field, but if Helu, Burkhead and Tray stay healthy I doubt he would have seen the field a ton anyway. Now with Helu graduating he'll be a huge addition for the spring and fall of 2011. Link to comment
T-Husker Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 Especially with him and Aaron duking it out for that backup RB spot with Trey. Link to comment
cornhuskerfan1988 Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 So would all this basically just make him a gray shirt *that doesn't get to enroll for the fall semester at his own expense*? Additionally, anyone know if he is on NCAA 2011? I will find out tonight, but I gotta believe they put him on there so we would have a freshman running back. EDIT: Added the stuff inbetween the ** Link to comment
MadcatNU Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 Braylon isnt going to make it. The word is that he will be here for Winter 2011 conditioning. How is it he can't be here in August but can be here this January? I thought once you went JUCO you had to finish your degree? Link to comment

I was told that it will be a situation kind of like Antonio Bell was in 2008. I am not sure what all the details were with that situation, so I cant really comment further. Link to comment

I suppose I forgot that Bell took a round about way getting here. That makes sense though. Link to comment
MadcatNU Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 Guess it wouldn't be that big a deal if he got here in Jan, as he was likely to red shirt anyway. Link to comment

lilred Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 I, too, think he would have gotten carries this fall. Even as a freshman I think he could have brought something to the table. Link to comment
mitch7 Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 Okay so let me get this straight....Heard will be, but not until January of 2011? And what are the chances of him actually making it to campus then? Link to comment

It might be something like since he didn't qualify, he'll have to take high school level classes at the university. And since he is taking high school level courses, he isn't eligible to participate in sports. I'm not saying that this is what the case is gonna be, just a possibility. Link to comment

Wait... they offer high school level courses at the university? SIGN ME UP!!! Link to comment
