carlfense Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 Pretty impressive work by the recruiting services really. I would think that is better than average. A 5 star has about a 1 in 5 chance of going in the first round. A 2 star has about a 1 in 400 chance of going in the first round. Thanks for putting this together. Quote Link to comment
HuskerBruin Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 Sean Weatherspoon and Jerry Hughes really jump out at me on that list. Quote Link to comment
NUance Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 Sean Weatherspoon and Jerry Hughes really jump out at me on that list. Me too. Especially Weatherspoon. Hard to believe Weatherspoon was unranked coming out of HS. He is a freak of nature. At combine had 34 BP reps, a 40’ vertical leap, and one of top 10 LBs in 40 yd dash. Also one of the most productive LBs in the nation over the last three years. Stars matter. But recruiting is an art, not a science. Quote Link to comment
NoKoolAidForME Posted April 24, 2010 Share Posted April 24, 2010 The stars are important but the coaches still make the offer based on the needs of the program. Besides one guy they first round picks were from notable programs. Quote Link to comment
Husker Richard Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 Interesting that we offered Gerald McCoy. Could you even imagine him and Suh on the same d-line under the tutelage of the brothers Pelini? Oh my lord. Quote Link to comment
EZ-E Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 I believe Weatherspoon had grade issues. Not 100% sure about it, but I believe that was the case. I hate to say it but Weatherspoon was good at MU... Quote Link to comment
husker B-rent Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 this looks to be quite impressive to me. shows that the recruiting services actually do do a very good job... Quote Link to comment
Husker_x Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 I believe Weatherspoon had grade issues. Not 100% sure about it, but I believe that was the case. I hate to say it but Weatherspoon was good at MU... Yes he was. And thankfully football is still a team sport, else it might have mattered more. Quote Link to comment
suh_fan93 Posted May 9, 2010 Share Posted May 9, 2010 Sean Weatherspoon was great at MU and I really like the guy. I think he's going to do great at the next level. Quote Link to comment
