nebraskafaninwi Posted March 5, 2013 Author Share Posted March 5, 2013 Congrats to Luke. Not many people get to live a childhood dream like this. I wish you the very best, Luke! Work hard and you can achieve greatness. Link to comment
Thanks_Tom RR Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Yeah. He'll commit early. However, this means he is going to get overlooked by most schools and end up underrated by most recruiting sites as a result. Still, got to love the in-state talent this year. Link to comment

Is Luke the type of leader that can help recruit other prospects? I don't know Luke so I have to ask to know. Link to comment

Ever seen this kid play? Opinions? Link to comment
Haspula Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Do you guys think he deserved it based on his film? Link to comment
Atbone95 Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Do you guys think he deserved it based on his film? Reminds me a little (maybe a lot) of our own Mr. Gerry. Look at his highlights starting at about the 30 second mark. I like the speed and straight up brutality. Link to comment

Ever seen this kid play? Opinions? Outside of Foster, he's probably the second best prospect in the state. Like him better than Phillips, worthy of an offer for sure. I wouldn't mind seeing him at WR, and maybe getting him up around 210-215 Link to comment

I don't see us offering more than one other in-state prospect for a while for this recruiting cycle. Why? We need a QB, a RB, some OL, some DL, ILB, OLB, 3-4 CBs, TE, 2 Ss. That right there is more than a full class. So not much room right now to offer the other in-state guys outside of the DE. Link to comment

If we have talent worthy of an offer in state we need to offer and get them to stay here period. Snubbing instate talent or especially within the 500 mile radius would be a huge mistake, and yes I do realize we need to concentrate on areas of need, but we can not afford to lose out on local talent.

We can if they truly aren't D1 talent. You don't just take local talent b/c they are local. That's just not smart. I'm all for taking local kids if they are good enough, but if they are just going to take up a schollie and sit on the bench then what's the use?? Link to comment
