I don't think this probably has anything to do with those guys - other than maybe a little insurance against Thompkins' injury. We were probably taking a third RB in this class anyway. And that was before Bryant got hurt. We lose Ozigbo and Wilbon after this year so just re-stocking. 1 Quote Link to comment
Chadhusker Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 Thanks I have high hopes for Thompkins and Johnson. Hope we keep both of them Quote Link to comment
Huskers93-97 Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 I wonder if a kid like this if he had disciplinary issues before. If he will be ok coming in and splitting time with 3 other guys. Say Bell stays next year. You got Bell, Washington and Miles Jones to split time with. Thats assuming he comes in and beats out the other new RB's. Thompkins will redshirt. Johnson might be tough to beat out. But guessing if this kid is legit he becomes the 4th next year and thompkins and johnson redshirt to spread out the roster eligibility years. So they would be redshirt freshman when Maurice is a junior. 1 Quote Link to comment

Georgia Tech 1 year JUCO 2 years Nebraska 1 year It looks like he broke his collarbone after 2 games in his first year at JUCO, so he probably got a medical redshirt for that season. I think he will have 2 years of eligibility left. 4 Quote Link to comment

Hope we can get Robinson. That would be huge. Yes depth at RB is really good. Wandale fits more of the Duck-R position where Dedrick is just an RB. We have a fantastic recruiter in Ryan Held and he is so awesome to have on staff. A man that has everything you want in a coach and he is an even better person. Excited to see what Dedrick brings to the table as I believe he will basically replace the reps Tre Bryant would have gotten in 2019. 1 Quote Link to comment

GBRFAN Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 Seems like this may be a perfect replacement for TB - Not all three stars are created equal and SF and company seem to find some that are very intriguing (time will tell !!!!) Quote Link to comment
Dogs In A Pile Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 I've read he will be eligible to enroll in Dec. and will have 2 years of eligibility left. Quote Link to comment
