PaulCrewe Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Said he would like to redshirt. Very smart kid. Knows he can be 4 year starter if let's Cotton and Moudy graduate. Agreed. Says he will come in learn what he can and if the dominos fall in his favor this fall and he plays so be it, but really wants to master the playbook and technique Link to comment

He has the right mentality all together. Link to comment
Ed Helms Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 Everybody read this article from the OWH: http://www.omaha.com...140209140/1685# Tanner Farmer is Nebraska Football. His dad has the right attitude, and has the attitude I wish all parents with kids getting recruited to play D1 football had. Here's a quote from him: "Focus on what you can control, Brian said, which is effort, desire, and, yes, lifting. Tanner loves lifting enough to occasionally hit the weight room twice a day. Tanner didn't know just how good he could be, Brian said, until a few years ago. And it took those camp performances for the family to realize Tanner could have his pick of schools. Once Tanner committed to Nebraska, Brian fielded all mail and calls from opposing coaches. Tanner still doesn't know all the schools that coveted his services, but Brian said the list included Florida, Tennessee, Missouri and Mississippi State, “among 20 other schools.” “When you give somebody your word and tell them you'll do it, you better damn well do it,” Brian said." 5 Link to comment
NoLongerN Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 Great read ... he is my "gem of the class". Really excited to have this kid. Link to comment
Thanks_Tom RR Posted February 6, 2014 Author Share Posted February 6, 2014 Great read ... he is my "gem of the class". Really excited to have this kid. This had me laughing. After, the "warm feelings" scandal in Frison's thread, I would have thought you would be a little more conservative with how you describe your excitement for these recruits. But, you give us this "gem", and here we are again. Well, done HeyBakerMark. /By the way, this is all in fun. Not trying to mess with you too much. 1 Link to comment

Mavric Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 650: Pounds that Tanner Farmer, the Huskers’ strongest incoming recruit, can squat. He benches 440 pounds. OWH Link to comment
HuskerFowler Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 Although Newell said he squatted 705, and said he didn't want to go any higher cause he thought his knees were gonna blow out. Link to comment
Thanks_Tom RR Posted February 9, 2014 Author Share Posted February 9, 2014 Already posted this in the main football forum, but I thought it should be linked to Farmer's thread. Bo is about to get his world wrecked. @Sean_Callahan: Great pic of @TRFarmer73 and @BoPelini wrestling during Pelini's in-home visit. #Huskers http://t.co/2wCzhyEgZE Link to comment

IllinoisHuskerFan Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 Sate Wrestling tournament start back up today. Tanner wrestles later today. My prediction is that he steamrolls everyone just because he is stronger and quicker than everyone else. He qualified to get to state after he pinned his opponent in 1:15 sec. Hes 34-0 and lets be honest it would be a shock if he didnt win! Physically he is freak and hes down to 285 and is lightning fast. Anyway...Good Luck to you big man Go Huskers! Glad he is going to play for DONU! Link to comment
Mavric Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 Sounded like he is expected to make the finals easily but there is a one-loss guy on the other side of the bracket that might be a pretty good matchup. Link to comment
IllinoisHuskerFan Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 I watched him at the sectional at my old HS last week. When he grabs you hes got you and there is nothing you can do about it! He played football at about 300-310 all year and is down to 285 to wrestle. He is quick and strong as hell! I expect him to win but your right Mavric that Championship should be a good one. If it wasnt for plans I would be there in Champaign Saturday... Link to comment
