Mavric Posted January 25, 2015 Author Share Posted January 25, 2015 Josh Harvey @JoshHarveyScout 2m2 minutes ago #Nebraska has offered LS Grant Gluhaich a schollie - first D-1. Going back to Cali to think about it. Enjoyed visit. http://BigRedReport.com Quote Link to comment
Warrior10 Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 I am a little puzzled by this. We will now have 4 kickers/snappers on scholarship. But the coaches know 100x's more then I do. His first D-1 offer, you have to think he'll be N. Quote Link to comment

C N Red Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 I disagree with this. We will now have 4 kickers/snappers on scholarship. But the coaches know 100x's more then I do. His first D-1 offer, you have to think he'll be N. Guessing Miller will get a med hardship scholly and i dont believe those count towards 85. Quote Link to comment

Gabe is done with football and will go to med scholly after this year as the injury occurred this fall. Tough situation for the kid, happened while lifting. Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted January 25, 2015 Author Share Posted January 25, 2015 Miller is done but technically Warrior is correct - Bondi, Foltz and Brown right now and this would be #4. Guessing perhaps we missed out on a couple spots (QB, DE) so we thought it would be a good time to grab a specialist. Not that big of a deal but I thought Fulkenberry did a pretty good job perhaps we could have given the scholly to him. Quote Link to comment

Yup, I was counting Foltz, Brown, Bondi and this kid. Granted I have not looked at other team's scholly distribution, maybe it is in the norm to have 4 guys on scholly. Quote Link to comment
Hedley Lamarr Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Heck I didn't even realize Foltz was on scholarship Quote Link to comment
ADS Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 He has to go think about it? Dude it's your first offer and it's this late in the game to a big name school. 1 Quote Link to comment
Thanks_Tom RR Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Pass. This is a bad offer. LS is a position that the walk-on program could easily fill, Josh Faulkenberry is a good example. Faulkenberry did well this year (I can't remember if he made a mistake), and he will be a sophomore. Gluhaich is way too small, both short and about 60 lbs light. I was good with Gabe Miller because at the time we were in need of a LS, and he was college ready both in technique and body type. I know Riley is working with a short cycle, but they can do better. We are basically out of options for a second DE in this class, and they are wasting time and potentially a scholly on LS? They need to go full court press on some committed DE or JUCOs that have not signed LOI and forget about the LS. 2 Quote Link to comment

Omaha-Husker Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Riley employs a full time special teams coach because he puts a high value on that part of the game. Quote Link to comment

Hopefully, that value he puts on ST becomes tangible at Nebraska, which was ranked #2 in the some index this year. And the coaching staff thought it was important too, they had a LS on scholarship. Investing in the best most reliable players at these positions pays off. I am all for having a rock solid long snapper for the next 4 season. Quote Link to comment
