Iceman Prediction Time


Recommended Posts

Well boys, the AA Game has come and gone and boy did those predictions blow! I mean, what the hell was I thinking? Shoot, it took me a couple weeks to recover fully, but I'm back with another round of predictions.

 

I think we're going to round out our 2017 class with 7 more commits.

 

✅Jamire Calvin- yes, he broke my heart, but it's obvious it wasn't fully his call. He will be N.

 

Elijah Blades- It seemed crazy at first, but Bartow hopped on, now Schaefer. Then redux. Now the iceman. You boys can consider this a lock at this point.

 

Michael Onyenaiobi- Another talented guy DWill is going to reel in. Not the star rankings, but gotta believe he has some serious talent.

 

Greg Johnson- This might be the jewel of the class... Oh and of course, it'll be mostly thanks to DW. Lock it up. Throw the Commit Tag on him.

 

Damion Daniels- The big sexy will report to Lincoln come June. Book that sh#t. Reliable, strapping, young man hit me up with that piece of knowledge recently.

 

✅Kurt Rafdal- I'm not sure he is the stud TE we need, but he is the TE we deserve with how little we have used them. Chalk this one up to TT, earns TT a FT job this spring.

 

Jody Lewis- You thought we'd let him slip through the damn cracks? Think again Huskerboard. Jody been N for a loooong time. He's just been waiting for the Iceman to let the good people of HB know what up. SC will be reeling forever after this one slips out da yard.

 

Final Class Ranking : 13th.

You'll get Blades, Onyemaobi, and Daniels from your list I think. I'll say Verdell will be our surprise of the day. Disappointing in comparison to the other three that would be a surprise (Johnson, Lewis, Lenoir) but would still be a great late flip.

 

I think if you would have told most Husker fans after the Army All-American game that we'd snag a star in Lindsey, an up and coming local product in Walker, red zone target in Rafdal, have Blades be there for the taking, and Calvin would come around we'd have a pretty excited fan base. The other three I think we'll get from your list and the post AAA game crew create a very exciting class. May not be heavy on stars (although there are quite a few) but it hits many of our biggest needs. Future bodes well.

 

One brick at a time.

 

Disclaimer: If Blades for whatever reason does not come, that will put a big damper on the excitement for the class by not landing a big fish on signing day. Even then though, I think this class still sets us up very well. Don't see Blades not coming here in the end though.

Mostly agree. Strangely optimistic about Lenoir and pessimistic abot Verdell. But for sure, solid class overall imo. Sad about Jody Lewis, thought we had him for a long time. Crazy to think of how down this board would be without Tyjon coming over.

Oh my. If we didn't have Lindsey on board I'm sure this place would be a war zone.

OK....Here is the prediction I made 5 days ago. My changes are in red. This is what I expect on Wednesday. This will give us 23 recruits in the class and rank us roughly 21 or 22 based on the last 3 years.

 

Lewis USC

Calvin N :bigredn:

Thompson ??? If we miss out on one of the other 5, he is next man up and would be N

Robinson Memphis

Rafdal N :bigredn:

Daniels N

Lenoir Oregon

Johnson N USC

Blades N

Onyemaobi TCU N

Verdell N (I'm actually 50/50 on him but I'll put my rose colored glasses on for this one)

If Lewis or Lenoir want in, we will find a spot.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Now...if we land Lenoir, it puts us at 24 recruits and ranked 18 to 19.

I'm thinking Guy Thomas is pretty much toast for us so that's one less and puts us back around the 22-23 they were thinking. Hopeful he stays, just sounds like he's looking for a reason to bolt.

I'll take Verdell to Oregon, and Lenoir to Nebraska (On a sneaky hunch).

So if we barely crack the Top 25 in recruiting, some of you are actually arguing that it's unfair to compare that to Bo's overall recruiting results, which averaged #26, and that we're just "bashing" HCMR? Sorry, but that's just plain baloney. I'm calling a spade a spade, and barely top 25 is barely top 25, no matter the coach. I don't care who the recruiters are; I just want results.

 

On the topic of Rafdal, if he goes to Baton Rouge on an OV, Orgeron will snag him, I have no doubt. Heck, he flipped a commit from Oklahoma this morning. Orgeron is elite, something we don't have. Makes me wonder how things would be different now, if Riley would've hired Coach O instead of Banker.

 

I am very excited about the possibility of Blades being N...

Had Riley hired Orgeron instead of Banker, we would have been filling the D-coordinator spot last year after O would've left for greener pastures.

 

Sorry, he does not fit with the ethics & morals that is expected at UNL. This is why Bo was shown the door.

 

Not really. Orgeron has been angling for an HC job for years now. He just got his dream job.

My predicted signing day results:

Calvin - WSU

Onyemaobi - UNL

Daniels - UNL

G. Thomas - UNL

Blades - UNL

Lenoir - Oregon

Thompson - Utah

Lewis - USC

Johnson - USC

 

Hopefully we have another receiver somewhere, because I think we need at least 4 and I think Calvin is WSU

 

Edit. I don't think we need 4. Taking 3 does a better job of evening out the classes. Just need all 3 to be able to contribute

Jamire Calvin - I honestly have no idea what to think. I guess I'll still go N.

Elijah Blades - I'm going to say N but USC scares me.

Michael Onyenaiobi - N

Greg Johnson- USC

Damion Daniels - N

Kurt Rafdal - I felt a lot better 10 days ago but I'll say we can beat out Iowa

Jody Lewis - USC

Bryan Thompson - N

 

Final Class Ranking : Those six added to our class on 247 give us a score of 229.8. That would have put us 21st & 23rd the last two years so I'll say #22.

Yeah, sounding like Thompson is Utah so I'm changing my mind.

 

Josh Harvey not painting a very rosy picture. He says we finish with Blades, Rafdal, Daniels, Wallace and Onyemaobi and lose Thomas to Pittsburgh. None of the others listed nor Hawkins, Lenoir or Verdell.

 

Harvey looking pretty spot-on at the moment......
