ScottyIce Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 Liked his visit. Not planning on any other visits right now. Loves the fan support - thinks he fits new scheme better than old. Facilities are amazing. 2 Quote Link to comment
Thanks_Tom RR Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 OUTLOOK: Bledsoe is another prospect that hasn't begun to narrow down his offer list quite yet. The hometown Kansas Jayhawks have hosted him on several visits, but he did attend the spring game in Lincoln, a strong sign for the Huskers. There's a lot left to play out, but Nebraska remains in contention along with Kansas, Missouri, Oregon, and Oklahoma. Link Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted June 9, 2015 Author Share Posted June 9, 2015 "I haven't narrowed my list down, yet," Bledsoe said. "Nobody has really stood out. That's what I'll be doing this summer. I won't be taking any visits. I want to have a relaxed summer. All I will do is stay in contact with schools and figure out the few official visits I will take. I want to make a decision sometime during my season." Bledsoe is taking a very slow and methodical approach to his recruitment, and he knows exactly what he's looking for. "I'm just looking for a place that feels like home," he shared. "I want to go somewhere that I'm very comfortable. The relationships with the coaching staff are important. I want to be close to everyone at the program, and I want to play for a great defensive line coach. I just want to feel like I'm a perfect fit for the school." Scout Quote Link to comment
Treand3 Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 Definitely good for us he visited. Gotta out duel OU and ucla. Proximity could be in favor hopefully for once. Quote Link to comment
Warrior10 Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 Got a bad feeling about OU here. Quote Link to comment
Treand3 Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 Got a bad feeling about OU here. If they have another mediocre season then it will help. It hurt them when they lost Montgomery to the NFL so that help as well. I would say Oklahoma is the bigger threat. Doesn't mean Riley and Co can't. Quote Link to comment

Dude did serious work for them. Got them DeBerry, made them appealing to Neal and was Bledsoe's lead recruiter. On top of all that, OU is stale right now with little forward momentum. Stoops stayed there too long imo. Any recruit that is looking at Oklahoma can't fully believe they're walking into a stable situation. Quote Link to comment

I agree on the momentum as do some OU fans I know, however they recruited strong last year IIRC. Quote Link to comment

Stoops' days are numbered imo....maybe on his own volition. 1 Quote Link to comment
girlknowsfootball Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 He's been on campus, what 2 times, 3 times now? He visited summer after his junior year with the old coaching staff. Then he visited for the spring game under the new coaches. He had planned to make it back up this summer but may not get to. As far as I know the only other school he has visited twice is Kansas because they are in his backyard. I've been following his recruitment closely and I really think we have a better chance with this kid than people think. Based on my research, he has visited Kansas, KState, Missouri, Nebraska, UCLA, Oklahoma State and Oklahoma. He's not taking any visits this summer and is taking his time with this process. He has a single mom and research shows that most kids don't go more than 6-7 hrs from home. I think we have a good shot at him. He really likes our new coaches and he knows we need depth at DE. 2 Quote Link to comment
Warrior10 Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 I don't think it's that people don't think we have a chance, it's more the fact he's been so tight lipped on the matter and hasn't tipped his hand much. Weary is how I'd describe my thoughts. Quote Link to comment
Treand3 Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 Amani is noted to be a little impressionable, so the staff will have work things like proximity, academics, staff stability and playing time/style. Nebraska has everything he needs just convincing him. Quote Link to comment
