Took a dip in his 247 rating today. 3 star .87

Damn.  I really thought he had all the makings of a good player.

 

Oh well.  Move on, and best of luck to him.

His stats took a dip this year so not sure if that played a factor or not

Production dip, lack of attending camps, and some of the bigger programs cooled. I think all three played a part. 

 

Still very glad to have him.

How can you measure other programs cooled. Could it be he committed to the home town school so they said f#&% it and save the resources he is all N?

He's playing for the huskers, that's all we need!

Imo, they cooled even prior to his commitment.

 

You are right that them believing he was headed N could attribute to that. They could of been more interested in other prospects. Or, likely, both.... imo. 

 

The Ole Miss, Texas, LSU noise was a lot louder last fall/spring.

They have been blowing teams out this year. The second stringers and JV have seen a lot of playing time this year.

I wonder if Chris will get a look at WR with his altheticism and physicality.   I also could see him as a good OLB or rush end if he puts on a lot of good weight.  Ignore the rankings. I’m just glad he’s N!

I like your idea of moving kids with athleticism around to find good spots. He might be a good fit at LB, like how the coaches saw potential for Jurgens at C.  They didn't just stick with what he had done in the past.

 

Need all the athletes we can get on D.

Wiffed on a sack. Doesn't have the same motor to get to the ball like Henrich for sure so far. 

 

Nice 25 yard snag though.
