RJ started out 5th on the depth chart. I would argue he got where he was by hard work and misses by our RB staff on the other guy(Held) Cam-finally starting to play well, but poor penalties. But is not a Remington finalist.... 1 Quote Link to comment

Attrition/transfers/guys just leaving really seem to have hurt the offensive side much more than the defense 100%. Lots of heads should roll on the offensive side of the ball if Frost stays. It's kind of a Cally-Cosgrove situation at this point and will be telling of whether he'll succeed here or not. But for this class in particular we should be OK with Stenger type guys since they seem more likely to succeed in spite of the staff and will be less likely to just bail immediately. 1 Quote Link to comment

Some people need to put on their big boy pants and quit whining about every possible thing from every possible angle. Or maybe I just need to go away for awhile. 1 1 Quote Link to comment

They are going to focus on recruiting kids from the portal that are more ready to play next year than a high school kid who could take 3 or 4 years to mature and grow into the system. They are also looking for junior college kids with experience. One problem with this is that it pretty much guarantees that next year's recruiting class will be poor as well with so much uncertainty. 2 years of bad recruiting will hurt future years even if they manage to get to 6 or 7 wins with the weaker schedule next season.

HANC Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 Probably pointed out, but this will be a VERY small class, which impact rankings. When you are going to be as limited as we are going to be, you just can’t take anyone. Losing sure doesn’t help, but this class and ranking will be a numbers crunch casualty Quote Link to comment

In addition to “star rankings “, class size also factors into team recruiting rankings. Quote Link to comment
HANC Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 I wouldn’t be surprised if we only take 13-14. To get worked up about this class, especially after SF last few classes is kind of reaching for more to bit@h about. Our class is already half full, and will rank a lot lower than his other because of pure numbers alone. 2 Quote Link to comment
huskerfan74 Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 I feel that Frost and his coaches are relying on the transfer portal to snag some good players. It is hard to recruit quality classes when you are sitting 3-5 with a chance to finish 3-9 or 4-8 in year 4. Quote Link to comment

One way to fix having a very small class is recruiting from the portal or junior college. You eventually add more numbers to your small class 4 years from now by adding kids who don't graduate in the 4 year cycle. Quote Link to comment
