HuskerBruin Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 I know you make room anyway you can to get a guy like this but how will we do that. Not much room in the 2010 class for him. Easy. Someone with a scholarship gets pushed out. That Cotton scholarship sure would come in handy now, huh? Quote Link to comment
MadcatNU Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 I believe the JUCOs arriving in January may also be counted towards last year’s class. Quote Link to comment
EZ-E Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 Its a safe bet to anticipate there being some turnover and kids that are currently on scholarship opting out at the end of the semester. I dont expect Collins Okafor to be a husker next year. Quote Link to comment

I see him staying around, although I thought that at his size and speed the staff should've moved him to LB Quote Link to comment

He is behind two true freshman that basically walked in this summer and were better than him from day one. I see him leaving and finding a program that he can actually find the field in.

I would guess they will switch him to defense like Cody Glenn / Prince. Quote Link to comment

Eric Martin? Sean Fisher? Will Compton? Lavonte David? He would be 6 deep at that position as well. Quote Link to comment

Husker4lif3 Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 whats the real chance that we get this kid? Somewhere in the 2-3% range because pulling him away from Penn St., Ohio State or even Florida is tough when kids are from the NE. Quote Link to comment
MKO Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 I've heard the rumor about him contacting NU, but you'd think NU would eventually show up in his lists of interested schools on Rivals or Scout. So far, no NU. So color me skeptical, but that would be incredible. Quote Link to comment
RedDenver Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 I believe the JUCOs arriving in January may also be counted towards last year’s class. Yep. How many schollies do we have available from last year? Quote Link to comment
caveman99 Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 I believe the JUCOs arriving in January may also be counted towards last year’s class. Yep. How many schollies do we have available from last year? That isn't the issue, the overall 85 limit is. A school can take 25 players EACH year, NU will not come close to 25 this year so they have no annual scholarship crunch. The issue is that they don't have a lot of room against the overall team limit of 85, doesn't matter if it counts for last year or this year the issue is that they all count towards the 85.
