Until you remove that abomination of an avatar, your posts will be disregarded. I say with serious dismay and regret that Tomhusker should be banned until he agrees to remove that putrid abhorrent piece of trash called a picture displayed next to his name

(post was made in jest)

I will agree to put it to rest when Nebraska either beasts the Jays or wins a tourney game.

I'll still be the #1 Jaysker in the land, but I'll bury the aviation.

I agree I think he just likes to have fun giving the state of Nebraska mild heart attacks

KJJ is going to take his time, I don't think he's a Nebraska lock but we will definitely be in it till the end

Actually I won't be drinking either. My days of stressing over recruits are over.

No news, just musings

While waiting to go to a Work party, I looked at ESPN and the recruits considering Nebraska.

One Five Star and 37 Four stars.

Now, how many took an Official Visit to Nebraska?

Five Star? Nope.

Four Stars? These four, names we all know and love.
Lamar Jackson
Matt Farniok
Isaiah Simmons
Desmond Fitzpatrick

A four star with ZERO OVs(most of these guys are OL or DL)

Jauan Williams Washington DC
Scott Lashley West Point, MS
Tre Nixon Viera, FL
Robert Washington, Mount Holly, NC
Nick Eubanks Plantation, FL
Mykelle McDaniel Loganville, GA
Stewart Reese Fort Pierce, FL
Xavier Gaines Lake Wales, FL
Sean Foster Mundelein, IL
Marcus Tatum Daytona Beach, FL


From the original list, Oklahoma, Texas, Alabama, Michigan the players took an Official Visits, probably about five per school. I will assume an OV basically means the player has zero interest in Nebraska. That is 24 out of the 38 players.

By my math, that is four out of 38, which is a little more than 10% are considering Nebraska. Also, 10 of the 38 have not taken one official visit anywhere and five of them are from Florida.

Since I know less than squat about the art of recruiting, no clue what it all means. Other than the big boys wait until the last second to choose a school, probably because they are not prima donnas.

Other than maybe a few of the guys you listed first I'd guess the rest of the class will be filled with names that arent even on our offer list much like the end of the last cycle, thats not a knock on anyone but just reality when you lose that many games. I don't expect much different until the win column improves dramatically

Tony Butler cancelled his visit to ASU... he will announce next Wednesday at a ceremony at his school between Nebraska, ASU and WVU... Nebraska is the only team he's visited.
