dubsker Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Apparently he did two points better overall than last time and it's one more point than he thought he needed. (73) thank you good sir! No problem! The funniest part of all of this was reading that Heard's favorite HI comment was that he "must be dumb as box of rocks." Quote Link to comment
ADS Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Any chance Heard switches to defense? I thought in his recruiting thread he said he doesn't care what position he plays just as long as he's playing. I believe Bo also played a larger role recruiting the kid, compared to other recruits. Likely, because they both went to the same highschool but it could be possible Bo intends to put an athlete like braylon in the secondary. No way, he was recruited as a RB. We need to add some depth at the RB position, and fast. Quote Link to comment

He is really going to be needed to fill out RB depth. I see what you're saying but does the staff think that? They didn't seem to go after AA until after news braylon wasn't going to make it. Which may indicate they only wanted 2 backs and now they have 3. I guess well see. Quote Link to comment

Which may indicate they only wanted 2 backs and now they have 3. I guess well see. I of course, offer only my opinion based off the information available to me, but I don't think the staff ever counted out Heard making it to Lincoln. Also, he was a very electric runner from Bo's hometown school who was recruited at a time when an RB was seriously needed. I don't think they recruited another RB in his class in case heard couldn't make it, so the plan was always that he would. Anyway, disagreements welcome. I would put my money on RB all the way. Also, Braylon's year off allowed extra time for him to mature physically. Ameer is still fresh off the boat. EDIT: I don't know that he's put on weight, just that the older you get (to a point) it's a little easier to add strength and endurance. Watch Heard and Ameer be the same age and me be so, so wrong.

dubsker Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 So who's redshirting? I thought Ameer and Green had said they weren't but that was before Heard qualified. Quote Link to comment

mitch7 Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 If any of the 3 switch to Db it would be Abdullah. I think some schools recruited him as Db and that is what he played in his All-Star game where he had 2 INT's in his first ever appearance as a Db. Quote Link to comment
