TE Nick Robinson [Memphis - Signed LOI]

[WVhuskerXX]

Before signing day! That'll be good either way to know what we'll still need. Feel really good about this one.

I don't. Hasn't been to campus.

Good Call. Maybe he moved it up after getting a call from Nebraska saying spot has been filled and solidified it for Memphis. Eternal optimism......

Touché

Think that means they feel good or know Rafdal is N.

Agree

Maybe we do have a spot for him after all. Either Rafdal's spot or maybe tall receivers falling through?

I like this kid a lot as a TE, more than I like Rafdal. Looks like a more fluid version of a young Cethan. As a WR I'm not so high. Glad we're going to get him on campus.

 

[ScottyIce]

Sounds like he will visit this weeekend. I mean, why not just push your decision back a week and visit another potential school?

 

[Hedley Lamarr]

I think we should take both if they both want N. We have zero depth at TE and the young ones we have havent shown they have the ability to crack the depth chart.

 

[ScottyIce]

Right. And Robinson can fit a little different role than the others I think.

3 TEs plus Miles is quite a bit, but I think it could happen depending on who we snag with the remaining targets. To be fair, the young TEs were behind 3 seniors and were 4th or 5th option, however I do see your point when Cethan was out and Snyder didn't see the field at all.

Room in the class is an issue. We have 17 commits and the staff has said they expect a class of 22. That leaves 5 spots. We have 10 recruits announcing on NSD.

 

[Scott Tenorman]

I have a hard time seeing us taking 3 TEs in this class, and didn't we just put one of our walk on TEs on scholly? I think having 5 scholarship TEs on the roster is plenty.

Are we for sure recruiting Robinson as a TE?

*Edit: Nvm, looks like he's announcing later today now.

This makes it sound like he will NOT be visiting here this weekend.

 

[MinnwiscowaSker]

As fans, we'll find out results of the ten on NSD, but coaches should find out from most a few days early. They should be pretty comfortable with where they're at by the weekend. Problem is, Sunday is a "quiet period" and after that starts a dead period.

That's old. Here's the new one that was posted earlier:

Obviously you've got to try to get one. Rafdal seems like the same style player as Allen and same build (super tall) so I'd almost rather have Robinson, but either one would be great. Rafdal and Allen could potentially be great redzone threats so I'd be fine with Rafdal too.
