seaofred92 Posted December 16, 2019 Author Share Posted December 16, 2019 given that he will be on scholarship this fall and is part of the 2020 class- I’m making a profile for Isaac. 2 Quote Link to comment

Part of this class but basically a walk on for this spring and then will get scholarship fall 2020. It's a lovely sneaky loophole to oversign the 26 we can technically take Quote Link to comment
NUance Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 This makes me feel like the staff has all available slots accounted for. (Hoping anyway.) I'd assume Gifford will get a scholie this fall from the inevitable attrition that always occurs over spring and summer. Quote Link to comment
seaofred92 Posted December 16, 2019 Author Share Posted December 16, 2019 Enrolling early. Blueshirting so will pay for spring semester and have a scholarship in the fall. We told him he will be a hybrid Safety/Linebacker for us. 1 Quote Link to comment

We told him he will be a hybrid Safety/Linebacker for us. Sweet. I am sure his NFL brother can cover the spring tuition. 5 Quote Link to comment
Husker in WI Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 I'm glad we got something figured out here. Feels like the kind of kid who could blow up at a smaller school, then embarrass us further by getting drafted higher than our DBs. But at the same time, you can't not take someone like Francois if he's coming - just gotta work the numbers to get both. Quote Link to comment
commando Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 i had to look up what a blue shirt is. had never heard that term before but really don't follow this recruiting stuff. i also didn't know that Nebraska started the red shirt tradition. The term comes from a Nebraska player in the 1940s who chose to only practice, not play, as a sophomore, in order to catch up physically. He wore a red jersey with no numbers on it ... a red shirt. He's the oldest example of a player intentionally held out of a season for this reason. The names of these other 'shirt terms spring from redshirting. 2 1 Quote Link to comment
