Commit #18... Joe Keels

[Brasky]

I swear when Nebraska comes for recruits all.of a sudden schools want that player. been happening for the past 2 seasona

That's not what happened. He decommitted from Wiscy and now Wisconsin fans are tweeting at him saying he didn't qualify academically and isn't good enough to be a badger anyway.

It's the same shit Smart is saying right here in this thread.

It's sad.

One last thing... Abu Lamin choosing USC no longer stings.

this. it's nice to be first, but certainly would be better if we would win more of those battles.

certainly doesn't look like an academic issue.

Damn, he must have been getting hate mail as soon as he announced.

Tom!

one thing I won't take away from the staff is they can find diamonds in the rough but as soon as they do the big dogs come in and snatch them up

In Texas and Cali? Yes.

Keels Youtube video shows that this guy fights through blocks very well...I hope he stays with this commit.

 

[HuskerPower52]

Geeeeez maybe all this negitive press is helping us. I never would have thought that Keels would have flipped to Nebraska.

He'd been hinting at it ever since he visited Nebraska a while back.

Dairus Slade... OLB/DE that had 22 sacks as a senior this year... looks set to commit tomorrow morning as well.

Tom!

What happened was as soon as he decommitted Wisconsin then came out and said "well we were going to drop you anyways."

That's what that chubby funny lookin Callahan guy said this morning. Basically just tryin to save face...make it look like Nebraska didn't steal him away.

If we keep reeling in big time recruits over the next couple of weeks I'm going to jump to the conclusion that Bo finally gave in and decided to cheat like the big boys

JUCO's are easy for Nebraska to get because it's a level playing field.

They've already been away from home and aren't afraid to go somewhere different anymore.

If he lands a couple 5 star HS kids from the south I'll start getting suspicious.

Losing out on Keels is a pretty big deal. He probably would have pretty played right away that first year in Madison. Good get for you guys, hopefully UW coaches have someone else to fill that scholly. Congrats to you guys.

 

[HuskerInSecLand]

I got to hand it to Bo and Co. It appears like they just might be getting serious about this football thing.

I've always said his defense works if he gets the right players, ya just can't get them here. Well hell it looks like just maybe he can get a few here and if you get a few then...

 

[Brasky]

I'm elated. Quality JUCO kids who can help soften the blow of the piss poor recruiting that occurred a few years ago. I love the last two classes we had and this one is shaping up to be on par with them.

My top two "wants" right now: Ballage and Gates. Ballage committed to ASU and it sounds like Gates is reeling in some high profile offers right now.
