girlknowsfootball Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 I think a majority of the time, a kid's offer list says a lot about him. Now not all the time. But when you're looking at a kid like Brown who mostly has offers from poor football schools (SMU, Colorado, San Jose st). Why do we go for this guy who barely has any major DI offers when we have kids with 20 offers including schools like Bama, OU, Auburn, etc. with continued strong interest in us? I mean I understand we find some under the radar guys, but I'd they're good then usually other schools come in after us and ride our wake and offer too. I just think we have too many guys on the board to take brown right now... Especially when we need guys big enough and ready enough to play as true freshmen. Quote Link to comment
BIG ERN Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 He said he's only going to visit 2 schools before signing day. That definitely helps our chances. Quote Link to comment
teachercd Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 Brian Nance is at the floor of his ability. This kid is going to be AMAZING. Quote Link to comment
Omaha-Husker Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 Nance and his teammate Polo Manukainiu will be visiting Nebraska Dec 16th. Do we have any shot at Polo? I know he was a verbal to OU earlier in the year, but OU dropped their offer. Quote Link to comment

I know he was a verbal to OU earlier in the year, but OU dropped their offer. He also visited Utah, I dont know if we have a shot with him. OU has a shot at some big name DE's so that might be pushing Polo away. I'm not exactly sure though. Quote Link to comment

I really think that's what is going on with Brown. Quote Link to comment
Omaha-Husker Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 Nance is going to pick during the Army All-American game. Quote Link to comment
Treand3 Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 Nance is going to pick during the Army All-American game. I don't know why but I am hearing the Tribute To Troy song playing in my head. I could be wrong tho. Quote Link to comment

BIG ERN Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 Says Baylor and Arky are his favorites. Big visit tomorrow though for us Quote Link to comment

NoLongerN Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 Does Baylor have a defense? Quote Link to comment

However true that probably is, Art Briles has actually turned that program for the better. I think the fact of the proximity of Baylor(ala it's in Texas) is playing a large role as well. Laugh as you may but I can see Baylor playing at a strong level post RGIII(not like National Title stuff, but TV relevent). Quote Link to comment

But if they're pulling in recruits like this you may be on to something Quote Link to comment
