late season

Callahan: All the playeres we recruited late, watched the Alamo Bowl, and that got them excited. The way we finished against Colorado and Michigan helped us recruit those last few guys...they wanted to be apart of this"

 
Like a few people said the Alamo Bowl definately helped us out in the end with some recruits. I figured we would get a few guys with the way we finished at the end of the year!!! :thumbs

 
``Our reception was wonderful,'' Callahan said. ``The players that we recruited all watched the Alamo Bowl and they see the potential and they see the future. They're excited about the future of Nebraska football and want to be a part of it.''

 
and......we need to build on this during the coming season with some big wins and another bowl appearance/win to boost the recruiting.....we need a better class next year, fewer JUCO's and more 4*, 5* guys............to get to the next level

we dont need 5 star guys, how many 5 star guys did Dr Tom get?

Its all about wanting to play for Nebraska. 3 star or 4 star.

 
well, if we don't NEED 4 or 5 star guys why do we recruit them?? tell that to USC and Texas, "ah yall don't need any 4's or 5's......just send them on down to us"

why let 4 or 5 star guys sign with the other team without trying to get them on yours first? some pan out and some dont. lets hope the ones we get pan out.

Dr. Tom didn't need as many 4 or 5 stars as Bill C will need to keep the wco going year after year. It has to be much tougher to get the right players to fit this type of offense than the option offense. The option was all about over powering the other team. WCO seems more of a finesse type of offense to me. Does anyone else see it that way?

GBR!!!

 
:yeah absolutely, it requires a number of skill players at many positions to be successful, not only good players, but those that can understand and perform in a number of less than simple roles.....

Wasnt there a thread earlier about how the end of the season would affect recruiting, and there were a number of people who said it wouldnt mean anything??? Well, I guess they were wrong :)

 
I wasnt saying we shouldnt go after or get 5 star kids.

I was trying to say is would you want a 3 star kid that wants

to work his butt off and play. or a 4 or 5 star kid that it really

doesnt want to work at it. I applaud what coach C is doing.

I wouldn't say we really clobbered home at the end the year. We lost out on a couple key guys we were going after and got a few decent players. I think that would of happen no matter how we did.

 
Yeah, but instead of the ones we got who said they came here because of the way we finshined out the season, we get the guys that we turned away or had their visits cancelled. I would rather have the guys that we got, wouldnt you?
