AlaSker Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 Nebraska QB ‘really impressed’ Streeter with strong Swinney Camp showing | The Clemson Insider Quote “He said he was definitely really impressed with the way I threw,” Kaelin said. “His bottom line was basically that I definitely moved up a lot on their board from where I was after he got to see me throw. Quote Kaelin named Rutgers, Minnesota, Michigan State, Vanderbilt, Missouri and Duke as the schools standing out most to him right now, as far as the ones he’s been communicating with the most. So are we just no longer going after him? We struck out with Raiola, we aren't even keeping him in the loop? Quote Link to comment

We struck out with Raiola, we aren't even keeping him in the loop? The Athletic had an article about in state QBs in May and it had already been a few months since he'd heard from us. Dunno what the deal is, but yeah sure seems like he's just not on our board. Maybe he's not enough of a jerk for Whipple, who knows. Plenty of fans aren't going to like it, but QB is the one position where I don't think you can take an in state kid just because he's decent - you have to get your guy. That would just be easier to stomach if there was a clear guy for 2024 over Kaelin (do we even have any other QB offers out), and if the recruiting rankings agreed with Whipple on Watson over Flores in 2023. I expect Watson to get a bump, but we might be takng lower rated out of state QBs 2 years in a row without even trying for the in state kid. Time will tell whether those were the right calls I guess. 3 Quote Link to comment

Our QB room this year is Thompson Jr Purdy RS Fr Smothers Soph Haarberg RS Fr Torres Tr Fr Next year without attrition you have. Now if 1 leaves say Smothers for Example because he wants to play you still have 5 scholarship QBs. Thompson Sr Purdy Soph Smothers Jr Haarberg Soph Torres RS Fr Watson Tr Fr Now when this young man would get to campus we would have Purdy Jr Smothers Sr Haarberg Jr Torres Soph Watson RS Fr. We have plenty of time to find a QB to put in the 2024 class or find a transfer like Purdy who would be a RS Fr when he first arrived. 3 1 Quote Link to comment
RichardHangslow Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 Kind of mind boggling to me the Smothers is not closer to the top. Quote Link to comment

TonyStalloni Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 We have since Callahan seen our coaches ignore Nebraska kids and take lower rated out of state kids from California, Florida or Texas who last a year or two and transfer out. And it's not that they ever explain themselves, they just ignore Nebraska kids by not making contact. Harrison Phillips and Noah Fant come to mind. 1 1 Quote Link to comment

Red Five Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 On3 saying this is basically Flores 2.0. Was being recruiting by prior offensive staff, but new offensive staff has shown no interest. Quote Link to comment

Phillips wanted to go Stanford for the collegiate degree it offered. Fant didn't like Husker coaching staff. Now if you threw out Drew Ott and Nathan Bazata you might be right. Nothing but preferred walk-ons for Nebraska ended up being stars for Iowa. Nothing was worse than watching Bazata throw the bones in Memorial Stadium against the Huskers. Quote Link to comment
