He was told we want him to play ILB or bulk up to DE, that eliminated Huskers. We won’t make his top 4. DE? Has he bulk up a lot? Isn't he listed at like 200 pounds? Quote Link to comment

Mavric Posted February 4, 2021 Author Share Posted February 4, 2021 If I had to guess I'd say one factor is he's shorter than most of the guys we're recruiting to play OLB. Quote Link to comment

In it system he’s either a MLB or a field OLB. Do you think he compares to Weaver or Buckey , who we just signed for DE? They’re 6-7 and 6-8 respectively. Just now, Huskadeez said: DE?

I dont want slow guys on the field just because they are 6-7. If Jackson will make more plays I would rather have him. Quote Link to comment

uberism Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 I think some need a better understanding of what fits in this defense regardless of being emotional about where a kid lives. 2 Quote Link to comment

I’m merely stating that he’s looking to play outside. Rather than in the state. If either of these guys don’t fit our defense, then are we recruiting them only because they live in Nebraska? Or is it because they have talent that we want? Quote Link to comment

That makes sense...not fitting the culture. So then it would be same to assume then we would be recruiting him hard because he’s a Nebraska guy and we still want to keep the in-state talent, in state. Quote Link to comment
J-MAGIC Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 Can someone with more scheme knowledge explain to me why we wouldn't be recruiting him as an OLB? He seems like a rich man's version of Caleb Tannor. Quote Link to comment

No, it doesn't have to have anything to do with culture. We might see him as an inside linebacker. He might rather play outside linebacker. We can still be recruiting him because he would help us but he might not want to help us at the position we think he fits best. Quote Link to comment

The longer wingspan helps fill the gaps better Quote Link to comment
Decked Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 Top 5 coming soon. I wouldn’t be shocked at all if we didn’t make it. Quote Link to comment
