Mavric Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 Quote The worst recruiting class in Nebraska football history signed in the first year of a new millennium: 2000. ... You can’t evaluate recruiting classes by results only. A recruiting class becomes great largely because of the instruction it receives. Clearly Nebraska’s player development machine had dipped in the early ‘00s. And clearly it didn’t help the class of 2000 when Bill Callahan overhauled the system before their redshirt senior seasons. But here’s the bottom line: Not one player from the class of 2000 earned first-team all-conference honors. That’s unprecedented in Husker history. Only T.J. Hollowell played in the NFL. OWH Rivals doesn't go back far enough to show the class. 247 has it but not really rankings. Quote Link to comment

Ulty Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 That recruiting class had more convicted murderers than it did first team conference selections. So we've got that going for us. 3 Quote Link to comment

Redux Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 Who could be bothered to put together a good recruiting class, there were more important issues like Y2K to deal with. 4 Quote Link to comment

There were a ton of "businesses" that would make your company "Y2K Compliant" and we were like, we are in the wrong line of work here, boys. Those folks made a lot of money off of suckers. 4 Quote Link to comment
Landlord Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 FWIW, PrepStar had the 2000 class ranked #12, and Wallace had it ranked #15. Quote Link to comment
