They've had more recent success than we have by a long shot. That's all it comes down to. Give it time with Frost Didn't you hear meyer sent a snow storm to his town to delay his decision long enough to have a bagman bribe him into attending ohio state. Quote Link to comment

Huskers93-97 Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 I think the whole deal about going pro if you choose a certain school is over played. Either your good enough to go pro or your not. Most of the kids ohio state recruits are top notch players. Bosa did not go pro because ohio state made it happen. That dude was a stud and was going pro anywhere he went. 3 Quote Link to comment

You play at a school with 100 students in BFE but are an absolute beast, they will find you. Quote Link to comment

That dude was a stud and was going pro anywhere he went. This was in McKewon's article: Quote "Ohio State has something special going on," Jean-Baptiste said when asked why he picked the Buckeyes. He added that the return of defensive coordinator Greg Schiano — who had been rumored to be headed to the New England Patriots — was "one of the main deciding factors" in his pick, as was OSU's penchant for developing NFL pass rushers. "I want to play at the next level," Jean-Baptiste said. "Ohio State has a good group of coaches." Take it for what it's worth, but this seems to have been a big part of his decision... 1 Quote Link to comment
HuskerNBigD Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 18 minutes ago, SUHperman said: Did anyone see Frost on ESPN 2? Mike Matya over on RSS said Frost seemed pissed and was dropping hints about dirty recruiting. Just wondering if anyone saw the interview? I saw it. It was a great interview. Guy asked Scott if he thought he'd bring in a lot of recruits on officials for the spring game, especially with it being sold out, and he said he would but still needs to be careful on which kids come, because if recruiting has shown anything, it is that you could be surprised on the last day. 1 Quote Link to comment
HS_Coach_C Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 ...and for what it's worth, I think Nebraska is as good of a place as any to be recognized and make it to the NFL, I just don't think some recruits will see it that way until FROST & CO. get rolling Quote Link to comment

Then flipped to OSU after Schiano was confirmed to stay per Sean C. Ouch. Would explain why Frost was pissed. Also makes me feel a lot better we don't have him now. You don't want that kind of poison on the team. Move on. We lost the recruiting batte ... and now can build a team with those that are here. Quote Link to comment
Huskers93-97 Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 Had choice to play for a man with integrity and one without. The prick Meyer ruined his announcement and made it public on tv like 30 minutes before the kid was set to do his commitment ceremony. 2 Quote Link to comment
C N Red Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 (edited) My Brother in Law is a tOSU fan. He absolutely hates Urban and says many tOSU fans don't like him b/c he is not a good football coach or good in game coach which has been evident more than a few times in his history. I actually agree. He is a good snake oil salesman, but not a great coach. He is able to get in the Jimmy and Joes, and luckily has good assistant coaches to coach them up. I think tOSU should actually be much better than they are with the players they have and recruit. I think its actually a good thing Urban is at tOSU in the coaching sense.

Living in Ohio I hear the same things. I think he has underperformed his talent. Urb is a jerk. And he really doesn't care what anybody thinks. Quote Link to comment

He has some snake tendencies but saying he isn't a good coach is pretty silly to say the least 4 Quote Link to comment

Even Riley could have won with that talent. I would say he's a great recruiter, but I've thought for years he is only an average coach. I've seen him make horrible in game calls that have lost his teams games. I know most would say he is a good coach, but I think he's highly, highly overrated.

Bowling Green, Utah, Florida, Ohio State. He's had some GREAT players, but I don't think that should diminish much.

Red Five Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 I don't get the rampant hate for Urb I see over and over on here. Dude is a great recruiter and a great coach. 2 Quote Link to comment
