Warrior10 Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 IF we land Newby (and maybe Claiborne) would you say we have the best LB class in the nation? Top 3? Top 5? Top 10? Quote Link to comment
Decked Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 If not the top one of the top. They would all be 4* guys. And would make the best complete position class since Pelini has been here. Talent wise. Quote Link to comment
CMT1525 Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 well alabams would be #1. as 247 says they have 2 5 star LB's already. but we are up there no doubt if we were to land those guys. Reuben Foster is a monster of a LB Quote Link to comment

Danny Bateman Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 Could you imagine landing those two guys, keeping Love and Banderas, and then adding all of them to the mix with the guys we picked up last year. We'd be sitting on some really athletic nasty backers. Quote Link to comment
HuskerFowler Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 I would say top 3 to 5 for sure, but like said above well know in a few years. Afalava, Rose, Santos, Banderas, Newby, Love.....wow. We get a couple top Dline to go along with the last few classes and our front 7 should be damn good. Our LB depth is a little scary this year, but after that it will become the strength of the D, right along with our secondary. Just need a good disruptive DT.....hear that Vanderdoes? Although i think Rome is going to be great. Quote Link to comment

Although i think Rome is going to be great. Rome, Peat, and Williams would seem to have bright futures based on what we have seen and heard thus far. Need Randle and/or Guy to pick it up this year. Need to keep adding 1-2 good DT's each class though. It is like O-Line, depth is everything fo long term success. Quote Link to comment
NoLongerN Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Question ... I guess with Newby on board ... #113 rated LB ... our highest in the rankings from what I understand (posted info on Newby's thread) ... how is this class shaping up to be a Top 5 class? Tell me what gives someone like me the basic Husker fan that kind of enthusiasm. I'm just curious as to why we rate these recruits so high verses how others rank them. This is a geniune question.

Would love to see us bring in the big uglies this year. Sure gotta love the LBs though...whew! Quote Link to comment
JoeHuskers! Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 I keep hearing that Banderas is gonna pick up another star to be a 5star, has anyone else heard this? Quote Link to comment

Tell me what gives someone like me the basic Husker fan that kind of enthusiasm. I'm just curious as to why we rate these recruits so high verses how others rank them. This is a geniune question. According to the ranking on Rivals our current LB's on board are solid prospects. The two we missed out on that we thought on this board we would possible get, Cox and and Ramirez both committed to Arizona St. and Mizzou and both are rated higher then any of our commits. As I look at the Newby commit, the #113 has to be wrong. He's ranked alot higher it seems on Rivals but they rank according to inside and outside. Looks to me like we will have a solid core of LB's ... but it to me we drinking some red koolaid to put it in the Top 5 realm. Love Banderas of course. I'll look forward to reading some other comments on this one for sure. Quote Link to comment
