I dont know that he is, but others are saying UCLA and Wisconsin are in the mix, and that at one point UVA was also showing interest. So, to me, it just seems odd. Quote Link to comment

So, to me, it just seems odd. Maybe. To me it just seems like he's a kid that is an academic risk, which has been known for well over a year, that hasn't done what needed to be done to be academically eligible at Neb. Therefore, Neb has moved on and other schools who are interested in his talents, but likely not as aware of his academic details, are looking into if he'll qualify at their school. Likely these other programs will find out what Neb has and move on. The staff visited York within the last 30 days to get a detailed update on his academic standing, there was interest there.

So, to me, it just seems odd. It seemed odd to me as well. Is it possible that Frost and Co. have other reservations? He was a Riley recruit. Maybe he doesn't fit in some capacity? Don't want to start rumors, just thinking with a keyboard. I guess we'll know soon enough. Another thought, aren't academic problems from a small school district like York kind of weird? When I think of academic concerns I think of inner city kids that have do not have a lot of exposure and get swallowed up in a large school with high student to teacher populations? And I think he either lives in McCool and is hardshipped to York or just outright moved to York for the football program. Quote Link to comment
Mary Pats BOB Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 (edited) Maybe he’s just not good at football. We can’t just take kids from Nebraska just because they “look” like big mean football players. 2 sacks and 3 TFL in a career per maxpreps is not exactly a dominant player imo.

Not saying you’re wrong, but getting facts from MaxPreps is like trusting Nate Clouse to tell you where a prospect is going. 3 Quote Link to comment
Huskers93-97 Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 Probably fair to say there is a lot we don't know. But I am comfortable with frosts recognition of talent and finding kids that have the ability but also the mental toughness to succeed. Maybe mapieu doesn't fit one or both of those things Quote Link to comment

I certainly did not want to misrepresent numbers personally, I only watched the title game he played in. Not slamming the kid because I think he really wants to be good and I wish him the best. Maybe it just won’t be at NU Quote Link to comment

Especially if he thinks he can land better talent at Nebraska. Its not out of the question his standards would be raised by coming to Nebraska. 1 Quote Link to comment

Yea don't think so when UCLA, Wisconsin and UVA are sniffing around. Can we quit with the "he isn't good enough"? He is plain and simple. Its a grades thing. Quote Link to comment
