He said he didn't want to come to Nebraska because it was too cold. He liked it a lot but the weather is what lost this one for us. Same reason we didn't get Nathan Smith.
I guess these guys aren't planning on playing in the NFL ever where 1/2 the teams live in cold climates....
Ya, because choosing ASU over DONU because of whether means he chooses warm weather over playing in the NFL. Believe it or not, living in cold climates prior to exhausting eligibility is not a requirement to being drafted...
I hate it that this is a deciding factor in a kids decision but it is what it is. Its up to the coaches to sell the things Nebraska has to offer and gets kids to come despite the weather.
Agreed, but I think when it comes to NE weather versus wherever, it seems NE weather isn't too bad during the season. For instance, how many truly cold games were there this year? Minnesota and Iowa? It gets pretty cold in Northern CA, OR, and WA too. He will have to play on the road in some of these locations yearly. I guess if one is strictly comparing off-season winter temps, I supposed Phx wins out.
