Oh, I'm pretty sure they did, but Wandale so badly didn't want to go to UK he said f#&% it and gave it back and apologized to everyone who wasn't going to be getting their $$$$ come his NLI day.

ColoradoHusk Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 One trend that spread offenses are turning to is running fade/deep routes with slot receivers. Robinson could be lethal in this role, as he gets match-ups on nickel backs and safeties from the slot. 1 Quote Link to comment

cheekygeek Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Wandale has the potential to grow into an "Emmitt Smith" type back for Nebraska. Emmitt Smith had 106 TDs in his high school career. Wandale had 87 in his Junior and Senior seasons alone (counting "other" TDs). Emmitt Smith averaged 8 yds/carry as a Senior. Wandale averaged 9.5 yds/carry and that was down from the 13 yds/carry he had as a Junior. He's probably way more of a receiving threat than Emmitt was also (in high school). Quote Link to comment

Wandale reminds me of Lesean Mccoy/Barry Sanders. Once Zach Duval starts molding him, look out. Quote Link to comment
Popular Post BigRedBuster Posted December 5, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted December 5, 2018 Over the years, I have grown to not get that excited when a player like this commits to Nebraska. That's mainly from the fact that we have had so many highly rated players like this never get to campus, not develop, transfer after a year or two.....etc...that I've just grown unemotional about it. However, this staff's ability to develop these types of players and bring them in with the right attitude...etc. has me starting to allow excitement again to sneak in. 10 Quote Link to comment

Nebraska fans have PTSD from the previous administration/coaching staffs. That doesn't go away overnight. Quote Link to comment

That doesn't go away overnight. Agreed. It's a bigger problem for me when I'm watching games. I always assume ever flag is on Nebraska, every opponent's deep pass will go to a wide open receiver, every Nebraska deep pass will be intercepted and that every time an opponent has 3rd and long it will be converted for a 1st down. Maybe I'm just pessimistic while I watch games, but the last 15-20 years has colored my negative thoughts. Weirdly though, I'm usually pretty positive during the week. 2 Quote Link to comment

Hopefully most of these kids stay for the long haul and trust Frost's system of development/coaching. We could be really dangerous on O hopefully as early as next year. Quote Link to comment
cheekygeek Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Not to be a downer, with such great news, but does anybody think this causes any of the following to reconsider their commitments? Quote The Huskers have three commits at the position with junior college runner Dedrick Mills in the fold along with prep players Ronald Thompkins and Rahmir Johnson. Quote Link to comment
