admo Posted June 30, 2016 Share Posted June 30, 2016 Great addition to the Husker family. Welcome, young man! Quote Link to comment
Warrior10 Posted June 30, 2016 Share Posted June 30, 2016 His potential has mostly to do with his body. You can tell that he has some baby fat on him and that he has so much potential in muscle development. Trade some fat for muscle and his twitch will get faster and so will his foot speed. The guy has a tremendous ceiling. Good point. Anyone have an update on how tall he really is? Seeing mostly 6'2 with some 6'3. Don't know why but for a DE 6'2 vs 6'3 seems to be that measurable of concerned vs legit. Quote Link to comment

Husker from Kansas Posted June 30, 2016 Share Posted June 30, 2016 Yes!! I'm excited about this one. His dad is one of my all time favorite lions (after barry, Herman Moore, Chris spielman and Bennie blades). No Corey Schlesinger? 1 Quote Link to comment

Spielman, moore, porcher, blades were beasts! Quote Link to comment
cm husker Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 Offers from USC Michigan Va Tech Miss St Mizzou Louisville Arizona Arizona St And a dozen other power 5 lower level schools.... Our lowest ranked recruit Offer lists are sort of meaningless because a recruit, and not the coach, provides the list, or it's made up. I have buddies who coach at the D1 level who just laugh at a lot of this stuff because rivals will report an offer to a kid who they haven't even heard of. anyway, I'm happy any time a kid commits to sacrifice for the Husker program. I hope he has a long, healthy and productive career here. Quote Link to comment
Stumpy1 Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 I have seen many times that a coach has said that his player received an offer from one school or another. Offer lists are a good indication of how good the kid is or could be. Quote Link to comment
cm husker Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 Coaches are no more knowledgeable than players a lot of time. They don't understand (or ignore) that a letter of interest or "non commitable offer" isn't really an offer. Quote Link to comment
Stumpy1 Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 I'm going to call BS on that. I can understand a newer coach that hasn't been apart of recruiting having those issues but having a coach that sends multiple players to D1 a year has a pretty good grasp on what recruiting is about. He knows what the difference of a "non-committable" and a "committable" offer. 1 Quote Link to comment

I would imagine he held offers from those schools considering we offered him as well Quote Link to comment

I would imagine he held offers from those schools considering we offered him as well I'm sure he has other offers. But I have a hard time believing he has the list of offers attributed to him based on what I saw. It's immaterial though. He chose the Huskers and now he has a chance to add to an amazing legacy at that black shirt position. Quote Link to comment

And honestly - what university, or for that matter, ex pro football playing dad doesn't make a correction to something that flagrant that's published. Nothing good comes of the mis information. I'm going to trust the folks that know told the truth. Quote Link to comment

And no staff or other professional would waste the time it would take to run around correcting this stuff for a whole host of reasons. Quote Link to comment

Perhaps, but I'd still trust recruiting news sources and his coaches that have to think broader and more long term than just one recruit just this one year rather than your conspiracy theory. A lie like that, to that extreme only gets a kid in trouble (as well as his coaches helping in the process) and certainly any school recruiting him would steer clear if there was any validity.
