BelieveN Posted July 29, 2005 Author Share Posted July 29, 2005 does this mean herian is back?? Quote Link to comment
Eric the Red Posted July 29, 2005 Share Posted July 29, 2005 Apparently he's moving to DE. Quote Link to comment
DaveH Posted July 29, 2005 Share Posted July 29, 2005 He played DE, I don't see what the big deal would be. What are our options at TE then? Quote Link to comment
Huskerfan66 Posted July 29, 2005 Share Posted July 29, 2005 I wouldnt expect Herian back for the fall...I dont see why Tomerlin isnt at TE, with Herian down, we have almost nothing. I believe JB Phillips is our "top" threat right now. Quote Link to comment

Pedro Guerrero Posted July 29, 2005 Share Posted July 29, 2005 Tomerlin said that if he and the coaches didn't feel like he was going to be one of the 5-10 best TE in the nation he would play DE. Maybe when he finally got to campus they looked it over and figured he should play DE. COuld Harvey be in the mix for some playing time at TE? Quote Link to comment
NamelessHusker Posted July 29, 2005 Share Posted July 29, 2005 He was recruited to play tight end and possibly some DE, so this shouldn't come as a suprise Quote Link to comment
skersfan Posted July 29, 2005 Share Posted July 29, 2005 I have been hearing Phillips is doing great things in the 7 on 7 practice. This could be the reason. Just a little info I have heard. Don't know if it is true or not. Quote Link to comment
Hunter94 Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 doesn't make any sense, we don't have depth anywhere and TE is really short.... go figure......things are not making much sense at this point, better be a damn good reason for the switch and it better show during the season too! hunter Quote Link to comment
husker in soonerland Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 Two words one name: Zach Potter will be a TE next yr. Quote Link to comment
Huskerfan66 Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 I have only heard DE for Potter as well...Even if these guys are a better fit at DE, I would rather see them giving it their all and contributing at TE, where we need them the most. Quote Link to comment
Steve Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 J.B. Phillips seems to be the top TE at the moment. A little shorter than Matt but weighs a bit more. TE is definately a concern at this point. Quote Link to comment
oviedol55 Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 It's a good move. Tomerlin hasn't played TE since high school. Meanwhile, he's a huge pass-rushing threat at open end. Either we could put him at TE where he possibly wouldn't start (Phillips is doing a great job stepping up into the starting role) or we could use him at DE where he would be in the regular rotation and could make some plays for us. Our D-Line is gonna be great this year. DE - Carriker and Moore Muhammed and Tomerlin Potter and Turner Blankenship and Steinkuhler DT - Smith and Adams Dagunduro and Cryer Suh and Helming We're gonna be very deep and will definitely get a good pass rush going with these 14 guys who will all see time. At TE, we're gonna be alright. TE - J.B. Phillips Josh Mueller Clayton Sievers David Harvey Sean Hill with a very outside chance of Herian returning this year. Still though, I think Phillips and Sievers will step up big time at TE, and Mueller might even live up to the hype he drew coming in. We'll be alright. Quote Link to comment
DaveH Posted July 31, 2005 Share Posted July 31, 2005 doesn't make any sense, we don't have depth anywhere and TE is really short....go figure......things are not making much sense at this point, better be a damn good reason for the switch and it better show during the season too! hunter It doesn't really matter does it? I mean if whoever ends up playing drops one pass it will be the WORST MOVE EVER OMG!!11!! We have kids to play tight end. I'm not to concerned at this point. I would love to get Herian back, but I think a redshirt would be best for him and the team. It might do some damage to his NFL status, but I don't really keep up on that. Quote Link to comment
