Throw Dem Bones Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 Frost in his interview said the focus will be an OLB/ pass rusher, WR depth (my guess Njoku or D. Houston), CB (Pola- Gates or Starks as plan B) He did dasay he would take young talent no matter the position but did specifically say DL (Pola-Mao I’d assume) Any thoughts on OLB/ pass rush prospects? Chester Graves? Excited to see the staff get on the 2020 class too! Quote Link to comment
Young Grand Island Husker Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 8 minutes ago, Mavric said: 25 commits right now. 25 open spots plus however many over-signs. Word is we are taking 30 - though a couple might be grad transfers. I think it will be a couple less than that. Maybe a spot or two for walk-ons as well. Current Scholarships/Commits QB - 1 - LUKE McCAFFREY RB - 3 - RAHMIR JOHNSON, RONALD THOMPKINS, JUCO DEDRICK MILLS, John Bivens WR - 3-4 - JAMIE NANCE, DARIEN CHASE, WANDALE ROBINSON TE - 1 - CHRIS HICKMAN OT - 3 - MATTHEW ANDERSON, BRYCE BENHART, JIMMY FRITZSCHE OG/C - 1-2 - JUCO DESMOND BLAND, MICHAEL LYNN NT - 0-1 - DE - 4 - ETHAN PIPER, MOSAI NEWSOM, BRANT BANKS, TY ROBINSON ILB - 3 - JACKSON HANNAH, NICK HENRICH, GARRETT SNODGRASS OLB - 2-3 - GARRETT NELSON, JAMIN GRAHAM CB - 2-3 - QUINTON NEWSOME, JAVIN WRIGHT, Tavian Mayo, Jamel Starks, Nehemiah Pritchett S - 2 - MYLES FARMER, Noa Pola-Gates Early Enrollees: McCaffrey, Mills, WRobinson, Nance, Hickman, Bland, Banks, Henrich, Nelson Bland is a may graduate now and I think mills is too. Nehemiah Pritchett signed with auburn. I think it might be time to add Charles Njoku and Matthew Pola-Mao Quote Link to comment
SouthLincoln Husker Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 I listened to an interview with frost at the end of the day and he talked about a couple more signees. Any guesses? Quote Link to comment

Do you think Pola- Gates and Pola-Mao actually signed today but told the media that they weren't signing until February just to keep it a secret as long as possible.. Then they can announce they signed with Nebraska at the Poly Bowl? Quote Link to comment

I'm waiting to add the other two until there is a confirmed visit. Quote Link to comment

Probably more trouble than it’s worth and it would surely get out somehow. Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted December 20, 2018 Author Share Posted December 20, 2018 We are at 82 scholarship guys right now. We have two JUCO commits who haven't signed yet and a report of a DT transfer from Oklahoma State. That would be 85. So for anyone else we take either one of those last three isn't going to show up or someone else currently on the team is leaving. Not that that's particularly shocking. Just something interesting to watch. Quote Link to comment

No worries, we still have a few players from '17 class. 1 4 Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted December 20, 2018 Author Share Posted December 20, 2018 Random nugget via HOL: 11 players in this class are listed at 6-4 or taller There are only 17 other players currently on the roster that fit that description 1 Quote Link to comment
Huskers93-97 Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 I just listened to the part of the Frost interview again where he is talking about more signees. He said he is expecting a few more signees this week. Then he says he is expecting to sign 30 for this class- then says so that will give us 4 more spots to fill. So that sounds like he is expecting 3 more to put us at 26 signed for the early signing. I think we all expect mills to be one of those 3. So that leaves 2 mystery signees. Quote Link to comment
