I'm basing my original prediction on Nick being able to play in the spring and Duval doing what he does best and add some good weight. 6'4" 215 (or whatever he is now) plus 15 lbs of good muscle will take care of that. I do agree that Hannah looks pretty darn good too. The future at linebacker is bright in Huskerland. Dedrick Young is 6-1, 245, with 5 years inside of a college strength and conditioning program (if one could call it that under Riley, lulz). There's a huge difference between that and a 6'4, 200 high schooler coming off a leg injury. Henrich is going to need at least 30 lbs to be able to be an effective 3 down LB in Big Ten play. 2 1 Quote Link to comment

I just don't see the point of starting a player when we have a capable talent ahead of him. No matter what, Nick will be a special player at Nebraska. 1 1 Quote Link to comment

If they both meet their potential, we could see Henrich and Hannah starting at ILB for 3 years together. Quote Link to comment

I don't either...I think redshirts are all but done except for maybe lineman and maybe a few specialists here and there. If a kid needs to redshirt you probably recruited the wrong kid and that is not a slight on anyone it is just about roster management. Quote Link to comment

Alabama, Clemson, and all the top teams still have rosters littered with redshirt players of all positions. 1 Quote Link to comment
Snowbird Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 I think you will always have red shirts. Way to beneficial to get those guys for 5 years in a program. Ecspecially walk ons. Which Nebraska will have 20 every year. Quote Link to comment

Kids will transfer more/faster than ever because they can play 4 games and because transfer rules (right now especially in basketball) are becoming very player friendly. 4 minutes ago, Snowbird said: I think you will always have red shirts.

Basketball is way different with the one and done rule though so upperclassmen in general are harder to come by. Quote Link to comment

I think that will start to happen with FB...but again...most of my life choices have been incorrect so this is probably wrong as well. Quote Link to comment

He would have started alongside Mo this season IMO. Super excited to see this kid play for the huskers!! Ahhh there it is, the obligatory “This recruit will start from day 1!” post. It just isn’t a legit offseason without irrational over hyping of HS kids who have yet to step foot on campus. 3 1 Quote Link to comment

Nice equivocation, but it would be better if you owned your assertion. Unless you want to go down the road of forecasting which game Nick becomes the starter..... Quote Link to comment
