I will believe it when I see it. Think people are making way to much out of this. 2 Quote Link to comment

I tend to agree with that thought process when people start making this type of speculation about why certain prospects lose interest in us. Quote Link to comment

And I bet it works a lot of the time and then some of those kids get back home and not being in his office and pressured probably helps them to sort of re-think things. It seems like he has had a decent amount of kids that have decommitted. 7 Quote Link to comment

Lots of facts here in our favor. 1. He loves that we got Fidone 2. It seems we cooled on Howse or at the very least left him a spot open 3. we finally have the home team advantage during Covid add in the possibility of he& fleck losing touch and I’d say it’s a done deal. 1 1 Quote Link to comment
BigRedBuster Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 I wonder what drew him to Minnesota in the first place and is that draw still there. Quote Link to comment

Fullyhusked, it would be great if these were "facts". If so, why in #2 do you state, "it seems we have cooled". Can you state the source to this if it is a fact? Why did you state a "fact" as a "feeling" or "appearance". I would have imagined #1 as being true and it would make "common sense" for #3 to have some merit ... so, personally, I think you are stating an opinion that many could make on a forum ... but it is not a "fact". Would this be "bloviating"? :-) I sure hope your opinion or facts are true regardless. Welcome to the board. 1 Quote Link to comment

Minny wasn't in his top 3 when he posted in December. Coming in as an outsider maybe lends credence to Fleck's overbearing style. I imagine that he can be tough to say no to. Quote Link to comment
BIG ERN Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 I'll welcome him if he truly wants to play for Nebraska...tired of having kids not show from Florida Quote Link to comment

Never saw the stat on that but that had to drop us out of the Top 30 for that class pretty quickly. 1 Quote Link to comment

Fisher mentioned that in his interview this week. It's not that they don't want to play for NU, it's all of the other circumstances going on right now. Challenging times right now. 2 Quote Link to comment

The first recruiting class was going to have misses due to the short amount of time the coaches had to develop relationships. I haven't gone back and checked, but I think the 2019 class was pretty good with lack of transfers (so far). Then with the 2020 class, there are the high profile guys from Florida who had their lives thrown upside down with COVID. They weren't having a good college experience, and they were hundreds/thousands of miles from home. Quote Link to comment

Watt and Canty didn't qualify. So, yes, there's more to the story. Quote Link to comment
