Judoka Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 So tired of logic being brought in to these recruiting arguments. Link to comment
why not Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 I would love to see at least one safety recruit from this class graduate in Dec. and be here for spring ball. With Stafford, P.J., and Osborne all leaving after this year, and aftern striking out on safties last year, we will need all the help we can get com 2013 at this position. Link to comment

Also, when I posted, I'd forgotten that Washington was switched to safety. Still, I'd like to see another solid prospect or two in the mix. Link to comment

I'm optimistic about Jackson too, but Cooper I'm not so sure about. I'm still having a hard time understanding why they would try to move him to corner. From what I saw he doesn't have the hips to play corner. I think he probably lost some valuable time in safety learning when that happened. I hope I'm wrong though. I was jacked when he committed to us. Link to comment
HuskerFowler Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 I really only think they switched him for the Wyoming game, then he went back i believe. It had more to do with our lack of depth. I too am excited to see what he can bring to the table Link to comment
MinnwiscowaSker Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 According to the article linked above, Bo says we've got two good senior safeties and one good junior, not two. Here's a quotation from Gerry's dad: “He told Nate, ‘Our plan for you is to play you early,” said Brian Gerry, head athletic trainer at Augustana. “He said they had two seniors who were safeties and a junior who’s a good player, but after that they were looking for Nate to be part of the future of their defensive backfield.

It's possible Gerry's dad is mis-quoting Bo. Seems he is already since both cooper and jackson will be sophmores this year if one of those two are the junior he's refering to. Or it is possible that cooper did make the switch to LB as has been rumored since the season ended. Link to comment

Has Bo given up on that? Is he saying on CC or Harvey are good, but not both? Or, yeah a misquote. Just don't know for sure at this point. The last depth chart was released befor the bowl game.

The Dude Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Thought I heard last season that Cooper is moving to linebacker. Link to comment

My thoughts/hopes are that CC is a stud and coaches want to get him on the field asap, hence the corner experiment last year. The switch to lb, if it has actually occured, would be because of the opportunity there to get some snaps instead of being stuck behind 3 seniors this year. Then again, if he's the stud Im hoping he is, you'd think he'd be able to be the starting safety opposite stafford.... I hate the offseason. Link to comment
HuskerFowler Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Nah hes still at saftey in the two deep behind the seniors with harvey Link to comment
da skers Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Thought I heard last season that Cooper is moving to linebacker. He's taking reps at both spots. I would guess he'll be used at LB in obvious pass situations. Link to comment
