Apathy Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 Don't know if this is true but its being discussed on the Husker rivals page and seems like everybody is liking this move. Someone talked to Braylon and he told this poster that he was moved to corner. Thoughts? Quote Link to comment
HuskerShark Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 Sounds like a good move. Hopefully he can be a contributor to the defense soon. Quote Link to comment
True2tRA Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 I know the guy didn't get to touch the ball much this year, but with the depth needs at running back behind Rex Burkhead, I would say this is a bad move. Not only that, but the few times he did carry the ball, I thought he looked pretty electrifying. He should stay at back and get the ball more this year. Quote Link to comment

HuskerShark Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 Plus Marrow for the next 2 years. We are fine at RB right now. CB and S is where we need more talent. Quote Link to comment

True2tRA Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 Cross Green Abdullah Burkhead Good Move. Abdullah - 42 carries Heard - 25 carries Green - 24 carries Cross - Not even signed - 0 carries Marrow - Incoming transfer - 0 carries Take Heard and his 25 carries away from that group and you have two true freshman that had a total of 66 carries between the two of them all season. If anything happens to Burkhead next year, the last thing we want to do is to waste Heards off season learning CB just to move him back to IB for more depth. By my count we have 16 DB's on the roster, and 8 safeties. Looks pretty clear to me that we have plenty of bodies in the defensive backfield. 24 guys not counting incoming players that will be on the roster competing for defensive back and safety positions. 4 guys with any carries for Nebraska returning next year. 1 Quote Link to comment

95huskers Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 it only makes sense. Quote Link to comment
Redmusky Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 He may be looking at more playing time if he moves to DB instead of 50 carries per year Quote Link to comment
panhandle husker Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 Even back when we were good, injuries happen and several times we had to go 4 or 5 deep, not a good move in my opinion, but IF Braylon is OK with it, let it roll Quote Link to comment

Marf Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 Cross Green Abdullah Burkhead Good Move.

Or take those 25 carries give them to Abdullah and Green and BOOM, they have 91 carries. Or take those 25 carries, give them to Burkhead. Thenn take Abdullah's and Green's carries (66), and give them to Burkhead! So we have 66+25+285 (Burkhead's original carries this season)= 376 carries for Burkhead! AND WE AREN'T STOPPING THERE! Let's bench Martinez too, nobody seems to like him anyways. We'll just put Burkhead at QB/RB/C/WR/DT. 376 carries for Burkhead+188 of Tmart's carries = 564 carries for Burkhead this season! AHHH! Now that we have our carry number, lets find some averages! We'll use the 564 carries, and multiply that by his season average for carries in 2011, which was 4.8 yard per carry. 564 x 4.8 yards = 2707.2 yards?!?!?!?! Oh boy. Now Burkhead rushed the ball 285 times this season, and scored 15 touchdowns. So we'll do the math, and find out that Burkhead scores once about every 19 rushes. So we'll divide his total of 564 carries by 19 to = 29 touchdowns! 2700 yards and 29 touchdowns?!?! BURKHEAD FOR HEISMAN!!! 3 Quote Link to comment
