secretasianman Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 Well, maybe Gates will kick it up a notch and do something in the NFL. I’d be surprised because because the only word that comes to mind when I think about Gates as a player is lazy. Quote Link to comment

BoSolich Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 either he'll stay and be forced to get in shape or leave early as one of our most inconsistent lineman. either way is fine with me. Quote Link to comment
Hans Gruber Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 He regressed each season. Comparing him to Vincent Valentine isn't a great comparison. There were times his last two seasons that Valentine impressed people with his play. If Gates doesn't want to be in Lincoln, then there's no point in him staying. College football is hard. I'd rather have three star offensive linemen that want to be there and work than four stars that don't care*. * assuming that rumors about his work ethic are true Quote Link to comment
Savage Husker Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 He gone https://twitter.com/nickgates77/status/948092807503273986 Quote Link to comment
admo Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 NFL can always use lineman. He'll be alright. He's a guard though. Could have a long career, wish him the best Quote Link to comment
The Dude Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 I think even if Valentine stayed another year he'd still be a backup in the NFL. Similarly I don't see much value for Gates to stick around another year. Quote Link to comment
huskered17 Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 Best of luck Nick. Thanks for becoming a Husker. GBR!!! Quote Link to comment
Saunders Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 Now that it's official, good luck to him... He's gonna need it. Quote Link to comment
BIG ERN Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 Frost told the team he needed them to come back after break and put in work. Not gonna be cake walk practices anymore. Gates leaves.....Not surprised Quote Link to comment
ScottyIce Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 Woah, another rumor comes true? I think that’s 2 straight! Best of luck to Gates! I thought he was going to be an AA. Not sure if that’s on him or coaching, but he has potential. Quote Link to comment
