HuskerNMO Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Hopefully the NCAA Clearinghouse doesn't F us over like they've done in the past What or who are you referring to here? Robert Sallie comes to my mind, but I cant remember any football recruits. Roburt Sallie wasn't a clearinghouse issue really. He signed with Washington out of high school, then failed to qualify, while the NCAA Clearinghouse did have questions about his transcript from his prep school, it was Nebraska's own admissions office that screwed up and enrolled him when he hadn't been cleared. It was then a Big 12 rule that kept him from coming to NU after he graduated from his junior college, not the NCAA. Quote Link to comment
n.e.husker Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Glad to hear this, finally. We have some fast/young talent in the backfield. Quote Link to comment
suh_fan93 Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Just reported on USC, apparently someone from Huskers Illustrated is questioning whether Braylon actually made the grade. He should be on later. So now he possibly didn't make it??? Quote Link to comment
PaulCrewe Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 Glad Braylon made his score. But until I see him walking around campus and enrolled for classes I will look at this more as a "glass half full" situation. We were all teased by Heard getting "the score he needed" and then not being eligible. Congrats, tongue in cheek, but someone a little higher up on the admissions side of things needs to confirm this for me to be fully happy. Quote Link to comment
RedNLeader Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 Glad to hear that the kid got his stuff together and cant wait for him to do big things this fall! Quote Link to comment
okaive Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 WR: Kinnie WR: Bell Slot: Turner TE: Reed RB: Burkhead RB: Green QB: Martinez That is one hell of a starting lineup at the skill positions. Every single one is a bonafide playmaker in his own right and can take it to the house. You've got tons of speed too. There are mismatches all over the place. The D would have to account for all of them. And note that both Burkhead and Turner would be legitimate threats to throw the ball, giving all sorts of trick play options. This offense is going to rock. Now only if Martinez can throw the ball the the WRs, we will be set. 1 Quote Link to comment

carlfense Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 Sounds like Brian Munson agrees with my guess that Heard will be the best of our three new running backs. Worth a listen. 1620 the Zone Quote Link to comment

sdhusker82 Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 He hasn't played football for a year, should we be concerned? Quote Link to comment
gratefullred Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 He hasn't played football for a year, should we be concerned? I really don't think so. It's not like a 19 year old will become out of shape quickly. Spring ball would have really helped Heard out. Hopefully he can take part in the summer conditioning. Quote Link to comment

He should be on later. So now he possibly didn't make it??? Because of the last flirtation with his grades, Bryon Munson said that he will wait until Braylon is actually on campus before he counts him in, fwiw. Quote Link to comment
