BaytownHusker Posted December 31, 2014 Author Share Posted December 31, 2014 I know this thread was started kind of as a joke...but seriously how hard is it to grab the concept that you want to get the very best guys all the time. I do not believe these rankings are perfect and blah blah...but here is what I know...if LSU wants a guy...so do I...if Bama wants him...me too..if FSU offers him...I like the idea of an offer... So if it is the schools that offer that make the recruit get ranked higher, fine...if it is the other way around...fine...just get the best freaking kids you can. I really believe that for MOST positions the coaches should look at a kid and ask two things: 1. Could he compete for playing time now 2. Could he help us win now And I do believe that is the difference between Neb and the top schools. USC, FSU, Bama, OSU, Oregon, Texas, Texas A&M. They all recruit players that can come in and play day 1. We had 1 guy that did that this year. USC basically beat us with 3 true freshman in the bowl game. Quote Link to comment
Hedley Lamarr Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 Last national champion without a 5 star recruit on roster? Based off Rivals, 2001 MiamiDJ Williams LB was #7 prospect in countryWillis McGahee RB was #16 prospect in country for class of 2000 2002 was Rivals' first year rating players, at least according to their website. So Miami in 2001 would have been the first team without a five star on rivals, because they didn't have any players rated. Do you get the joke now? I understood it the first time Quote Link to comment
