Carnie is coming off shoulder surgery & is gonna need to beef up a little before being on the field. Fidone while needing to put on weight is too much of a mismatch to not play at least a little right away.

Understand.  Fidone is more likely to contribute soon.

Rafdal never really got going here. Hopefully he lands somewhere that can utilize his talents right away.

"We just need Omar to be there every day"

 

Yeah, that part does tend to help with a player's development and readiness...

If Frost finally has all his pieces, maybe this is the year we see the actual potential in a Frost team at NU.

Physically, Hickman sure doesn't look like a player cross training at Y, not that there's anything wrong w/that...

 

And, I'm sorry, but Rafdal entering the portal after 2 days of spring practice is pathetic and short sighted.  Even if you're being completely selfish, you went through winter conditioning, you started spring camp, get the reps, and focus on individual improvement before moving on.  Who mentors, advises, parents these kids?  From a fan perspective however, glad to see him move on now, more focus on the development of Fidone.

Hickman has been a player without a position for a while now. It'll be interesting to see where he ends up (and TBH it wouldn't surprise me if it's not at Nebraska).

Not gaining enough weight. Hard for me to think he’s fast enough for WR & is gonna be able to gain enough weight to be a TE. Gonna get passed up by this years TE class.

Hickman looked like a stick out there last year.  I was surprised at how tall and skinny he looked compared to everyone else.
