SIGNED - FB Ben Miles

[ScottyIce]

Picked up a crystal ball today from a LSU insider.

i assume you mean a CB for NU

yep

Ohhhh that can only mean Les Miles is out at LSU!!!!! Right?

And he's talking over for Riley in 2017!

No... Someone already said he is our new ST Coordinator. Takes over for Riley in 2024 after 3 straight Natty's.

Not everyone wants to play for their dad, necessarily. Kind of a savvy offer on Riley's part here. I think he kind of fell in love with the fullback position with Jano.

Would love to get him.

Take your reasonable nature out of here, that isn't how this board works. We need more unsubstantiated rumors in here!

 

[Treand3]

None Les' children attend LSU fwiw.

 

[Stumpy1]

Was listening to Mike Schaefer (247) on the radio and he said that the staff absolutely loves this kid and Mike said that he wouldn't be surprised if the kid started from day 1 if he committed here.

A 3* FB? Yeah. That would be pretty neat, let's make that happen.

Meanwhile back to Ben Miles. We can always use a tough smart fullback.

Completely agree. If you are looking for your absent posts, they have been moved to the Woodshed. You can continue your discussion there.

Anyone see reports or write-ups on his visit to the spring game?

If there's any indication on how it went he picked up a crystal ball for Nebraska from a LSU writer.

 

[TITANIC VS LUSITANIA]

Guys, I really want this guy. I like his film of him smashing players, none of that oh I'm just the bigger tailback fullbackness...gimme that lead blocker gona kick the MLB out of the running lane kinda dude!

Beep beep here comes the bus!

 

[NoLongerN]

Certainly a player we want. Hope he would get utilized to his full potential. With all the new pass emphasis it genuinely makes me wonder.

I would think that if they offer a scholarship to a FB, it means they plan to utilize him. Otherwise they would just continue the tradition of using walk on local players.

Based on some of the quotes from Riley this spring, it seems that Jano's success at FB last season, has drawn their attention to the value the FB and H-back positions could have in this offense. There were also reports from spring regarding installation of specific packages incorportating the H-back, reinforcing this notion. With that said, it only makes sense that this staff is looking to get a commitment from the #1 FB in the country.
