AlaSker Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 Alright, I will be the one to say it.... If we miss on Jordan I'm going to be upset we didn't pursue this kid more. We should have pursued him more from the get go. The need for his skill set is high, more than one target would have been a good idea, Hindsight is 20/20 I guess.. 1 Quote Link to comment

Last I checked, 3 was greater than 1. 1 Quote Link to comment
AlaSker Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 You win. I didn't notice any pursuit of any other OLB. We certainly pushed as hard for those guys..... I'll give you that Parker is still a real possibility, but Asante and Jordan seem to offer a different athletic ability that him. Quote Link to comment

Agreed and would rather have them, but the staff must have had some reason for not going after the brother of a former Husker. Quote Link to comment

Apologies for my frustration... I just wish we had all of the info on some of these guys, Fonua was at best a band-aid. the rest of these kids could have provided something beyond that with their physical attributes. Parker looks like the real deal pass rushing wise but not the full package, if we get him, hopefully we can expand his abilities. Maybe he already has them, and most posters (including myself) don't have a clue what they are talking about. Quote Link to comment

Yeah, that's my problem with him. We need a pass rusher, but I feel like we need a guy who can contribute on day one. How well and how quickly can Parker learn coverage? Quote Link to comment

SUHperman Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 Per a poster on RSS the coaches are allegedly heading to Virginia and I would assume it’s to see Asante. Clouse mentioned in his update this morning the coaches may make one more run at him assuming Jordan went to TCU. Edit: Matya just spoke with him. He spoke with our coaches last night and said Nebraska is still very much in the mix. He is planning on visiting North Carolina this weekend and not sure about any other trips. We could try and get him out here for a mid week visit. Matya didn't say anything about our coaches being there tonight so that poster could have been wrong. We will see.... 2 2 1 Quote Link to comment

SouthLincoln Husker Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 Either Parker is a no-go or the staff is trying to get 2 more OLB in this class. Quote Link to comment

Who knows? Parker may fall in love with KU. But I cannot imagine KU having a wow factor like TCU. I could see how Jordan preferred the metropolitan area of Ft Worth versus Lincoln, and the winter weather is better. Some kids rather have that. Quote Link to comment
