To get him out of Nebraska?
What the hell did we do to TG & CC?
As far as commits switching MU was in on every one of those kids and in nearly every case was in the final 2 or 3. If you were a kid that picked one over the other and the one you pick turns out to sucks, fires nearly every assitant coach and appears to be ready to go through a coaching change next year (Ill.) or if you picked one that appears to have totally switched their offense from a balanced throwing attack to one that runs 3/4th of the time and only throws when they have to now. I would bet that you would reconsider your decision. Truth is it only seems funny to you because your team is losing more recruits than they should. If that is due to a change in styles or a lack of good recruiters i cant say for sure. But you NEVER stop going after kids until they tell you to. Chase Rome was commited to OSU, I dont see anybody here thinking up elaborate schemes that have SUH calling Rome to get him and others on board. Its just silly. IF your kids were HARD on for NU they would have said no thank you to ANY coach that called.Personally, I highly doubt Pinkel would be behind something like this but i don't see anyway to prove that. And i honestly have a hard time being very critical of people who do think this way. On two separate occasions now former NU committs have switched to MU and then proceeded to contact remaining NU committs to sway them away. McDonald makes the 6th member of MU's class to have decommitted from a previous school. There's begining to be a history of this staff getting into the ears of other schools commits. I tend to think trying to get others to decommit just for spite, as described here, is a bit of a stretch but at some point one has to wonder if MU's staff is really as squeaky clean as you like to think.Talk about a stretch. Really???? You want people to believe that a coach had 2 players, only one of which is going to his program, call another player, that he has NO interest in, and have the 2 players tell that player to leave the school he is going to? I have heard some wacked out things from Husker fans over the past weeks, but this takes the cake. Forget that Pinkel sits on NCAA rules and ethics commitees. Forget that no matter what you or NE fans think about him, he is highly respected among his peers in the college coaching ranks. Forget about the fact that there is no proof or foundation for your story. But just repeat it to yourself and see how much sense it makes...I know that Quincy was contacted by these two and talked to. Whether or not it was Pinkle that orchestraited it we will probably never know for sure.I don't believe Pinkle would do such a thing and actually let that getout into the public. Sounds like another rumor over the net, but who knows. If in fact either of these kids actually did this on their own it's pretty slimey as well, and i'd definitely never put it past that douchebag Gabbert Jr.EZ-E said:Back to the topic.
The word on other boards is that Pinkle told Gabbert and CC to contact Quincy and sway him away from NU. There is another reason to hate MU.

If Carter did contact Quincy, did you ever think that he did that on his own. That he is obviously upset at NE and the way things went. He is mad about something. That would explain his decommitment and trash talk after the fact. There is not a puppet master behind these kids.
I'm still a little perplexed by MU taking Tyler since they already have a very good QB prospect in this class. There's a good chance Tyler will be nothing more than a bench warmer behind Franklin and his brother, so why take him? It almost seems like it was just to screw over NU.
On that same note, players ALWAYS call other players. If you think Rome wasnt calling the other top kids in MO your crazy. You guys always talk about "maybe he will bring in a friend/teammate/cousin". Its pretty hypocritical to get upset or act like 'something' is up when it happens to your team.
As far as Gabbert goes. If you are MU you want as much talent as you can get. Somebody is not going to play. maybe its him, maybe not. But given the facts that you all state about him, he must really have rather gone to MU than NE if he still commited given those obsticles.
And by the way, If it was to screw over NU, he would have waited till signing day. Its NOT a screw job. If you want to blame somebody blame your coaches for either bringing in a lack of talent of the Offensive side of the ball or not being good enough to coach them up. That is what cost you your spread QB and spread WR. The fact that your offense is so putrid that you had to resort to a style that is so basic that it appeals to barely any talented offensive players. And after switching you still are awful. Blame them, becuase that is the only reason you are not in a BSC bowl or possibly even playing for a NC. They are the reason you cant get playmakers to commit or stay commited. Blame those guys instead of trying to make up stories and blame other conference coachs who you think spend all their time conspiring against you.
Its this simple, with an offense that isnt just god awful, Nebraska is probably a big 12 champ and playing for a NC. Without your amazing D you are a 4 win team. Take Bo's advice on your leaving players. "the thumb always points back to you"
Fro, I would agree that, ultimately, we should look inward when it comes to our recruiting problems.As far as commits switching MU was in on every one of those kids and in nearly every case was in the final 2 or 3.

I didnt know you and CC where so tight??!! Did he tell you that MU told him if he wanted a spot he had to take it before they filled? DId he tell you that they wouldnt save a spot for him? Did he tell you that MU turned away another player from this class that is better than me and they would take them before me if there was an opening. And what in the world do you think people say when they call trying to swing other players. "Um...hello other OSU recruits. I know your school is great, but NE has an equally great school."

There is a difference between calling players and talking about schools and calling players and spewing trash and lies because you are hurt and mad. Get it figured out, you have to be smarter then that, right? You want to know what CC is saying about Mizzo right now, PM me, I will let you know.
Look, I know its hard rooting for a second or third tier team, we had to do it when BC was here. I know what you are going through, you have a QB that is going to the NFL but that isnt a winner, you know it and you know that he can't ever win over 9 games in a season. It is not Pinkles fault, its Gabberts fault, some kids are winners, some kids arent.
you are going to have to put up with gaudy stats next year and 5 losses. It is a terrible feeling but some guys just arent winners. Right now, you are thinking of QB's in college that put up great stats and dont win, the list is very long isnt? Add one more to it.

What lies are you talking about??? You seem to know what these kids were talking about. You must really be 'in the know' Because if they were talking trash on the offense, sorry but you have to be smarter than that to believe that is a lie.
I guess you guys have that 'winner' green. YOU are the type of fan that makes other teams fans think that Husker fans are freaking crazy. You were probably leading the gabbert slobber parade when he committed and now he sucks. But your QB who cant learn more than 20 or 30 plays and still cant execute those plays any better than you or i could is going to be the greatest thing ever. He didnt run or throw on anybody that wants in the freaking sunbelt. What makes you think he will do ANYTHING?? Oh, because you are blindly faithful to what you feel is the greatest team ever and even if EVERYTHING i said in the previous post was ABSOLUTELY true, you would have to come with some random attack of my team because your so damn insecure about your team that you cant hear any criticisms without freaking out. Only you would smack talk a 9 nine season when you praise your team for the same. I would like to hear why you think NE will be so great when they return the worse offense in the conference and lose the best D player that college football has seen in probably 20+ years, the only good LB you have, and both of your safeties. But thats probably that blind faith thing. IF there is something i have learned from being the fan of a "second or third tier team" it is that I am a realist.
I hope to GOD your not really a teacher. :facepalm:

I didnt say that Lee was a winner.
I am a teacher and I have coached for a very long time and I know lots of coaches and we talk a lot about recruiting and our players. We are at camps together and dinners together and S&C conferences together.
I dont think NU will be a all that good next year, I think they will be kind of how they were this year, i think they will struggle in almost every game especially in conference.. You seem to really want to infer a lot from my post, thats fine. But you are wrong. I never praised "my team" for this 9 win season, check my posts if you want.
You want so bad to discredit what I said but you cant, you are trying to discredit things I didnt say though, you are doing a good job with that. Again, I dont mean to sound like I am attacking you, but you if you want info, please PM me.
Teacher,turned away another player from this class that is better than me and they would take them before me if there was an opening. And what in the world do you think people say when they call trying to swing other players. "Um...hello other OSU recruits. I know your school is great, but NE has an equally great school." "Hello fellow highly rated MO HS football players, I know that MU is wonderful, but NE is pretty neat too" :facepalm:As far as commits switching MU was in on every one of those kids and in nearly every case was in the final 2 or 3. If you were a kid that picked one over the other and the one you pick turns out to sucks, fires nearly every assitant coach and appears to be ready to go through a coaching change next year (Ill.) or if you picked one that appears to have totally switched their offense from a balanced throwing attack to one that runs 3/4th of the time and only throws when they have to now. I would bet that you would reconsider your decision. Truth is it only seems funny to you because your team is losing more recruits than they should. If that is due to a change in styles or a lack of good recruiters i cant say for sure. But you NEVER stop going after kids until they tell you to. Chase Rome was commited to OSU, I dont see anybody here thinking up elaborate schemes that have SUH calling Rome to get him and others on board. Its just silly. IF your kids were HARD on for NU they would have said no thank you to ANY coach that called.Personally, I highly doubt Pinkel would be behind something like this but i don't see anyway to prove that. And i honestly have a hard time being very critical of people who do think this way. On two separate occasions now former NU committs have switched to MU and then proceeded to contact remaining NU committs to sway them away. McDonald makes the 6th member of MU's class to have decommitted from a previous school. There's begining to be a history of this staff getting into the ears of other schools commits. I tend to think trying to get others to decommit just for spite, as described here, is a bit of a stretch but at some point one has to wonder if MU's staff is really as squeaky clean as you like to think.Talk about a stretch. Really???? You want people to believe that a coach had 2 players, only one of which is going to his program, call another player, that he has NO interest in, and have the 2 players tell that player to leave the school he is going to? I have heard some wacked out things from Husker fans over the past weeks, but this takes the cake. Forget that Pinkel sits on NCAA rules and ethics commitees. Forget that no matter what you or NE fans think about him, he is highly respected among his peers in the college coaching ranks. Forget about the fact that there is no proof or foundation for your story. But just repeat it to yourself and see how much sense it makes...I know that Quincy was contacted by these two and talked to. Whether or not it was Pinkle that orchestraited it we will probably never know for sure.I don't believe Pinkle would do such a thing and actually let that getout into the public. Sounds like another rumor over the net, but who knows. If in fact either of these kids actually did this on their own it's pretty slimey as well, and i'd definitely never put it past that douchebag Gabbert Jr.EZ-E said:Back to the topic.
The word on other boards is that Pinkle told Gabbert and CC to contact Quincy and sway him away from NU. There is another reason to hate MU.

If Carter did contact Quincy, did you ever think that he did that on his own. That he is obviously upset at NE and the way things went. He is mad about something. That would explain his decommitment and trash talk after the fact. There is not a puppet master behind these kids.
I'm still a little perplexed by MU taking Tyler since they already have a very good QB prospect in this class. There's a good chance Tyler will be nothing more than a bench warmer behind Franklin and his brother, so why take him? It almost seems like it was just to screw over NU.
On that same note, players ALWAYS call other players. If you think Rome wasnt calling the other top kids in MO your crazy. You guys always talk about "maybe he will bring in a friend/teammate/cousin". Its pretty hypocritical to get upset or act like 'something' is up when it happens to your team.
As far as Gabbert goes. If you are MU you want as much talent as you can get. Somebody is not going to play. maybe its him, maybe not. But given the facts that you all state about him, he must really have rather gone to MU than NE if he still commited given those obsticles.
And by the way, If it was to screw over NU, he would have waited till signing day. Its NOT a screw job. If you want to blame somebody blame your coaches for either bringing in a lack of talent of the Offensive side of the ball or not being good enough to coach them up. That is what cost you your spread QB and spread WR. The fact that your offense is so putrid that you had to resort to a style that is so basic that it appeals to barely any talented offensive players. And after switching you still are awful. Blame them, becuase that is the only reason you are not in a BSC bowl or possibly even playing for a NC. They are the reason you cant get playmakers to commit or stay commited. Blame those guys instead of trying to make up stories and blame other conference coachs who you think spend all their time conspiring against you.
Its this simple, with an offense that isnt just god awful, Nebraska is probably a big 12 champ and playing for a NC. Without your amazing D you are a 4 win team. Take Bo's advice on your leaving players. "the thumb always points back to you"
There is a difference between calling players and talking about schools and calling players and spewing trash and lies because you are hurt and mad. Get it figured out, you have to be smarter then that, right? You want to know what CC is saying about Mizzo right now, PM me, I will let you know.
Look, I know its hard rooting for a second or third tier team, we had to do it when BC was here. I know what you are going through, you have a QB that is going to the NFL but that isnt a winner, you know it and you know that he can't ever win over 9 games in a season. It is not Pinkles fault, its Gabberts fault, some kids are winners, some kids arent.
you are going to have to put up with gaudy stats next year and 5 losses. It is a terrible feeling but some guys just arent winners. Right now, you are thinking of QB's in college that put up great stats and dont win, the list is very long isnt? Add one more to it.
What lies are you talking about??? You seem to know what these kids were talking about. You must really be 'in the know' Because if they were talking trash on the offense, sorry but you have to be smarter than that to believe that is a lie.
I guess you guys have that 'winner' green. YOU are the type of fan that makes other teams fans think that Husker fans are freaking crazy. You were probably leading the gabbert slobber parade when he committed and now he sucks. But your QB who cant learn more than 20 or 30 plays and still cant execute those plays any better than you or i could is going to be the greatest thing ever. He didnt run or throw on anybody that wants in the freaking sunbelt. What makes you think he will do ANYTHING?? Oh, because you are blindly faithful to what you feel is the greatest team ever and even if EVERYTHING i said in the previous post was ABSOLUTELY true, you would have to come with some random attack of my team because your so damn insecure about your team that you cant hear any criticisms without freaking out. Only you would smack talk a 9 nine season when you praise your team for the same. I would like to hear why you think NE will be so great when they return the worse offense in the conference and lose the best D player that college football has seen in probably 20+ years, the only good LB you have, and both of your safeties. But thats probably that blind faith thing. IF there is something i have learned from being the fan of a "second or third tier team" it is that I am a realist.
I hope to GOD your not really a teacher. :facepalm:
I didnt say that Lee was a winner.

I went too far with that last line. I deleted it, but obviously not before you replied. I apologize. I have been going through a pretty rough patch and let it carry out and on to you and that is not only not fair its pretty damn disrespectful. Again I am sorry.
I dont really care to much what carter supposedly said. You are free to send it to me. But I am pretty sure it will do nothing for my mood. I know enough about kids that spew on one school that spurned them to believe thats probably the case again. I do know that MU told him if he wanted a spot he needed to take it before last weekend. I also know that he is behind at least Terry if there is an open spot. I also know that he called MU on Sunday asking if they still had an opening and was told no. SO from that I can gather the general flavor of what he may have said.
Again, I apologize for a disrespectful and irresponsible comment
I doubt he had anything to do with it either. As you said, there is no proof that he did. But it's also true there is no proof that he did not. It's entirely opinion, and that's why i think EZ-E put it best when he said we will probably never know.Madcat,
I am only doubting that Pinkel had anything to do with it. There is NO proof what so ever. Just speculation. And it seems as though to most NE fans Pinkel is the scapegoat. There is no reason what so ever to believe MU had anything to do with those calls. Infact I would point to two unhappy former commits that probably know the kid from visits.
As far as recruiting players that have given a verbal elsewhere i would recommend looking inward again. Bo does it. Look at your commit list. Take a couple of 4 star players off and return them to their original schools. IF the kids didnt want to switch they would not have.
Mu has lost kids off this years class as well that had given verbals just so you know. Its recruiting. If you are assuming that MU is some evil thing because they have kids that came from other teams. You should check out the Rivals or Scout main boards. Watch ESPN U for the bottom crawl. You will see this stuff goes down every where and at every school.
My criticisms were for the dreamers that want to fabricate stories that place blame. They should look inward, because most of the time the cause for the effect that you are seeking, is right in front of you.
As far as me accepting criticisms for MU's faults, I have no problem with it, Just show me something that isnt pure dreamed up speculation.
To get him out of Nebraska?
What the hell did we do to TG & CC?
