D Line Recruits

[husker98]

Collin Miller got an offer. Get him.

Kid exploded skill wise and measurably his senior year. Really would like him at DE. Same school as RG4 and his interest in us is legit.

I like the look of this kid a lot. Good size and frame and athleticism.

I still think we need a DT though. Or is that a position Ivy can cover?

McMullen and Maurice along with the freshmen

No. Ivy is a pure DE.

I heard an offer for undersized DE Bobby Boucher Jr may be in the works. He hasnt been evaluated by the recruiting sites.

The Gators want him.

Reports are we had decided not to recruit any DTs for this class but may be doing some last-minute looking now that Collins and Valentine are gone.

You should never go a class w/o getting at least 1 DT. They are too damn important to skip.

 

[Haspula]

Wow how did they not expect both of them to leave after this year?

 

[fwhuskerfan]

Is there any chance that Nebraska tries to get back in with some of the local guys?

Damon Benning keeps hoping for an offer for Elijah Wilson from Central:

And I think Sam McKewon was impressed with David Englehaupt:

Both seem like developmental type prospects, could put on some weight and be strongside end/3-tech options.

I didn't expect both to leave... I guess we aren't all braniacs like you Haspula!

 

[teachercd]

I think that you look at the situation...

Collins: Probably a high draft pick

VV: Graduated...been hurt before a few times.

I think when you look at the facts you have to assume there is a good chance that both would leave but one for sure. I think if you lose one you need to bring one in. If you lose two you better bring two in.

I don't get this logic at all. Regardless if those 2 decided to leave or not, you recruit DT's for the future not for the next year. After this year there are only 4, would be awfully nice to have a RFr. Be ready to add depth in 2017 as the 5th DT.

I'm sure the staff sees a bigger depth issue then DT and might be happy to save a couple scholarships for the 17 cycle. Us fans don't see any upperclassmen with experience after this year - so we as fans seem concerned. The staff knows what they have in the young guys and it must be GOOD!!!

We have 22 seniors plus any other attrition.

There's no need to save any spots.

The concept of "saving spots" by leaving scholarships empty is not, nor has it ever been, even a concept college football staffs use. No coach is going to willingly mess with their roster distribution to "save spots" - doing it one year messes your roster up for the next four. No.
