He gone.

 

That's kind of what I thought.

He'll be pretty much their lowest rated recruit. Looks like two below him. Barely.

The fact that Brown is essentially a throw away prospect for them speaks to how absolutely flipping loaded OSU's class is this year.  I get that having Babb there will help but dang you can't tell me that Brown hasn't watched some of the UCF games from this year and thought, "Man, that looks like a ton of fun".

If we would have retained KW we would have kept Brown, Moore and would have gotten Crocker as well. Now that he is gone, we won't be getting them (unless Brown is not given the go-ahead to commit.) Scott trusted his guys and brought them along, which is what I wanted him to do. We still salvaged some of the class, but not all of it. This guy would be fantastic to have in Scott's offense, but best of luck to him wherever he ends up.

Kind of interesting that he hasn't announced anything.  But his Twitter is totally devoid of anything Huskers (not sure what was there previously) so it's not looking good.

I don't think Brown is a throw away for OSU.  It looks like they take about 3 WR a year.  This year only Babb has committed.  I would say he is wanted by them.

Your point is well taken StP.  It looks like OSU took 5 WRs last year so it might not be as high of a need in years past.  OSU has 13 WRs on their roster right now with only one of those being a Sr.  They might have a couple guys go pro early (Hill is a RSSo and Campbell is a Jr) but no one on their roster really had huge receiving years so those guys are probably coming back.  I'm a little hard pressed to see how Brown sees the field for the first couple years whereas at Nebraska there is a decent chance he gets some run as a true Fr.  In retrospect using the term 'throwaway' was too harsh.

Honestly half their roster is a 5 star or borderline 5 star and next year and the year after will be more rolling in. I dont see how he ever sees the field.

Brown will see the field next year as a true freshman if he proves he is better than other players.  Urb doesn't hold back players if he thinks they are good enough to contribute

With coach smith at osu no receiver there will reach their potential. Terrible coach, good recruiter 

[mnhusker]

I hope we can keep Brown but I think life will move along just fine.   With this kind of staff turn over I think this is to be expected and I'm fairly sure the next staff will do a good job filling up a quality receiving group.

Hi, I’m the (position) coach for THE OSU.”

 

We’d all be good recruiters, too. Lol

Will kind of be a dick move if he doesn’t decommit before signing with osu. Like porcher’s Dad wanted to do.

Did Calvin decommit last year or did he just say WSU on the signing day? 

I could care less either way. Everyone knows it's coming. If he for whatever reason signs with us it's just a pleasant surprise.

Ya Calvin did it too. But at that point I was glad he wasn’t coming here. I’d still be happy if we got brown.
