Bigred_inSD Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 Yeah, that same periscope said that Mosley lost his scholarship which is why he left, so I wouldn't take those words to the bank.Maybe he didn't but the writing was on the wall. He might not have lost it but was "encouraged" to move on.KJJ will be N. As for Gebbia, Ole Miss bothers me.

I worry if Tommy struggles and POB takes the starting job and succeeds somewhat then that may scare off Gebbia. He could see the writing on the wall of sitting for 3 years. POB would need a killer season to be enough to scare Gebbia off, I think. Besides, if O'Brien can come in and play well right away, that means that we're pretty well set at QB, and Gebbia could redshirt and (if he's not good enough to unseat POB as the starter) still have 2 seasons of eligibility after O'Brien graduates. If POB is playing that well, does it really matter if we land Gebbia? It would be nice, but certainly not a position of need at that point. Yes, it takes one hit. Would you rather have another 4 star back up or a walk on because we are set at having a starter 1 Quote Link to comment

Redux Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 He is the lynchpin. Getting his team mate this year has to help our chances though in landing him and maybe his buddies. Quote Link to comment
RedDenver Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 If POB is playing that well, does it really matter if we land Gebbia? It would be nice, but certainly not a position of need at that point. Yes it matters. We need quality back ups to push our starter and we need to have people developing at all times. Absolutely it's important. If POB is playing that well, does it really matter if we land Gebbia? It would be nice, but certainly not a position of need at that point. Yes, it takes one hit. Would you rather have another 4 star back up or a walk on because we are set at having a starter Let me pose a question instead: Would you rather have POB play well enough to start this season, or Gebbia sign with the Huskers next spring?

zoogs Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 I'd rather have POB be a superstar, but that has no bearing on wanting to secure top QBs every class if we can. If POB doesn't redshirt this year -- definitely a possibility so that he gets his feet wet and we have Jr/Sr + So as competitors next year, then a '17 recruit who redshirts has plenty of distance between him and either of the other guys. As far as eligibility goes. I'd rather get all the best QBs they can find on campus, and let the competition sort itself out. Quote Link to comment

Both. I mean, why not? You should recruit the best talent every year, at every position, no matter what kind of depth you might think you have on the roster. Some seem to think that Gebbia might not look at NU because of POB. A lot of these guys that are extremely talented, are also extremely confident. They believe they can walk on campus and win the job day one. A perfect, recent example of this was POB committing even with the Wilson kid for Oklahoma already on board. It's a great mindset to have, and one that we should want the guys on the team to have. Quote Link to comment

It's a great mindset to have, and one that we should want the guys on the team to have. Completely agree. IMO it is important to bring in at least 1 quality QB prospect each year. You just never know how each player will turn out and what injuries will need to be accounted for. Need to have quality depth. Good prospects commit to schools with lots of talent on the roster at their position all the time; just because you think you have a potential home run on the roster now, it shouldn't preclude you from trying to bring in another potential home run in right behind him.

BigRedBuster Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 Every program that we will compete for Gebbia with will have studs already on the roster at QB. He will not be scared away because of POB. Quote Link to comment

In the Deed the Glory Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 Exciting and scary to think that this commitment could be the keystone to building our beloved program back to the top of the CFB world. Quote Link to comment

huskerfan13 Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 Slightly depressing tweet. Not sure if it means much. Probably doesn't. Still not something you wanna see Quote Link to comment

Still not something you wanna see Are we really doing this again... I can just as easily say, psychologically, that that means Keyshawn has made up his mind and is leaving the state of California to go to school (putting us even more as the frontrunner than we are now). Hell, I'm from Denver and live in Nebraska now. Every time I go back to visit family, worst part of the trip is watching the mountains in the rear view as I drive home. Quote Link to comment
