Treand3 Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 People need to realize just because a recruit visited, liked the visit, or had us as the final 5 means nothing. We aren't the only team that thinks we have someone and loses them, it's part of recruiting. This is why it is exciting---if we knew where everyone was going then who would care? Agreed. I will say it is easy to get caught up in every whim of a recruits actions. Every recruit is different and has different wants/needs and responds to different pitches. Quote Link to comment
hskrpwr13 Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 It isnt that we are not pressing hard enough. Our staff works hard at what they do, unfortunately it is the work that the other staffs do while we are at play that gets us. Like Diggs, you want to go get a kid like that out of the south; you don't have to harass him, but you flat out have to have a presence all the time. What do you mean by "we are at play"? There is a false perception out there that our coaches don't recruit much in season which isn't true. We do whats allowed by NCAA bylaws. Can't find the words to really describe what I am trying to say. Cool. What da skers posted is about what I thought you might have meant. Quote Link to comment
The Dude Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 I'm not gonna try and take the dreams of anyone away, but does he really think he can run a pro style offense and get to the NFL? He's 6'0 and is a run first player. Unless they change the offense he was way better off at Arizona or Nebraska. I agree, UCLA makes no sense. Unless he's willing to play another position and is just going there for the weather and the Nigerian community. Quote Link to comment
ndobney Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 This was the only person that the Huskers didn't get that upset me. He fit in well here, and could have been a star. Instead he choose a place he will not be successful. I feel that Devin Fuller has thrown his football life away by a bad decision, at least as a QB. Quote Link to comment
irieboy8 Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 so long Devin... to you and your career at UCLA Quote Link to comment
Haspula Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 Fuller will be calling us to transfer in 2 years. Mark my words, this isn't over yet. Quote Link to comment
ronsss Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 well,,,he has family that lives in los angeles.....probably was the deciding factor.... Quote Link to comment
suigeneris Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 Apparently, UCLA's stellar facilities played a role in Devin's decision: I think it's great that their practice field isn't even regulation size. I won't have to run as far when we do sprints for conditioning. Quote Link to comment

I won't have to run as far when we do sprints for conditioning. So he wants to go to UCLA so he won't have to work as hard. Well, enjoy your losing seasons. Quote Link to comment
Ringer02 Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 Fuller will be calling us to transfer in 2 years. Mark my words, this isn't over yet. and Bo will say "no" as he should. Quote Link to comment
HuskerCarter Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 Fuller will be calling us to transfer in 2 years. Mark my words, this isn't over yet. Agreed, he will redshirt next year, play as a redshirt freshman, realize its a big mistake, transfer to San Franciso Community College for his sophomore year and then we will pick him up as a JUCO transfer. So 3 years. Quote Link to comment
krc1995 Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 Good luck Mr. Fuller. While I would love to have everyone we target, it just doesn't happen that way. Why would he come here to sit behind 2 years of TM, 2 years of Carnes, and then Armstrong -who is Mr. Husker BTW. I think he made a good choice. Quote Link to comment
NoLongerN Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 so long Devin... to you and your career at UCLA Instant classic! Quote Link to comment
huskered17 Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 Have to wish the kid good luck. Would have been a good fit here, or would have fit in perfect at Ariz, running Rich-Rods type offence. Never thought he was coming here. GBR!!! Quote Link to comment
MinnwiscowaSker Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 I'll be honest, it'd be nice to have him, but I'm really excited for TA to get on campus. it's not like we don't have a capable QB coming in. I'd be really worried if Fuller was the only shot we had at a QB. We'll get another one or two next year. Quote Link to comment
