Mavric Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 (edited) Didn't make the Elite 11. Shea Patterson (Ole Miss commit) won. Interesting that Buechele (Texas commit) led most of the way but finished 5th. Peters finished 7th. Edited July 11, 2015 by Mavric Sorry. That isn't the official list. That is 247's version.

admo Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 No disrespect for not making the 11. In fact, when he gets to Lincoln he'll have study, work hard, and compete like all other players. Could even be a small blessing in disguise. Quote Link to comment
zoogs Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 Yeah, it's too bad -- would have been awesome to see him make it. However, it's probably not a big surprise given where he is in his development and that he was one of the last call-ups. And as we know, it's about how he competes in the years coming that will define him. Quote Link to comment
DrunkOffPunch Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 Still a huge accomplishment to get where he is now. Quote Link to comment
Red Five Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 Coming into The Opening and Elite 11, Nebraska quarterback commitment Patrick O'Brien generated a lot of headlines and some observers believed his stock was on the rise. However, following the event in Oregon several recruiters were left with more questions than answers. "I really wanted to learn more about him since we could face him someday," a Big Ten coach said. "I read all the stories and watched all the clips online and on TV. I'm still trying to figure out what the big deal is. He's not nearly as good as the other quarterback they got out of Oklahoma (Terry Wilson)." A Pac-12 coach agreed with that assessment. "He's not (bad), but I can name others that were way better," he said. http://insider.espn.go.com/college-sports/recruiting/football/insider/story/_/id/13261254/coach-confidential-breakdown-opening Quote Link to comment

He didn't finish 18th out of 18. Another persons comments regarding the elite 11 Myerberg added this: "He's got a smooth delivery, throws a great ball and has the frame to really be molded into a multiple-year starter for the Cornhuskers.

zoogs Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 There's a reason POB has been such an unknown until well, Nebraska offered. He's got a ways to go, and wasn't going to be turned into a polished 5-star QB recruit overnight. He's clearly really on the rise -- but as with any QB, even a more polished one, he has to continue working to get there. Wilson is a really good one, too. We're very fortunate at present. 2 Quote Link to comment

ScottyIce Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 Hmm. I don't even feel like it's hard to guess which B10 Coach made that comment. Quote Link to comment
Savage Husker Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 Let them make these comments, more axe to grind when he straps it on. Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 Not sure POB was born before Berringer died... Quote Link to comment
