Not official yet, but a promising sign. I'm going to bed soon but wanted to get this out there before hitting the sack.

 

[iruletheskool]

YES PLEASE

Who has been landing all these recruits I cant see which coaches are bringing them in.

 

[iruletheskool]

Coach W has turned on the SE gasket

To be fair we were talking to most of them first, this one may be all on him

 

[iruletheskool]

I dont want to hear any 2*bs from jjm on this one


This dude is a fantastic talent, go watch

 

[corn train]

Would be great, we needs all the DBs we can get

I have not seen his video or anything yet but seriously stool.......if he is a 2 star then I'll bet the big dawgs didn't recruit him........and if they didn't recruit him then why should I believe he is a diamond in the rough en shit?

We go through this every single year. We scramble and pick up a bunch of 2 and 3 star guys in the final 10 days out of desperation and then all of us sit on here and try to argue why the big guys didn't go after him and how stupid they must be.

I aint gonna get all excited until I see theee product on the field sir.

He's actually a 3* on Scout

However, he's the #172 ranked WR with offers from

East Carolina (Soft Verbal)
Nebraska
Indiana
Mississippi State
North Carolina A&T
South Alabama
Texas Southern
UCF
Western Kentucky

And yes. It's another year of going after "The Best of the Rest" that the big dogs didn't want and the Mid Majors are thankful to get.

Hence the reason why Nebraska is either barely scraping by the Wyoming's, Northwesterns and Minnesota's or getting beat by them. It's also why they've been getting pounded by teams with similar talent.

Years of poor coaching has led to a lack of serious interest by the big time players.

Alabama wanted him to visit..


That aint an offer, but means somethin

Probably wanted to talk him into walking on

I'm glad we're filling the class and all, but RA is right.......these are the kinda kids who end up committing to Ohio and maybe end up developing into fine players.

For us though, these players are just projects.

 

[Red_Alert]

The fact is that many of these 3* can be coached up to 4*'s....... Or not developed to potential and play like 2*'s.

 

[iruletheskool]

Yall cray.


Leroy Alexander was wayyy more of a reach and he started as a frosh

 

[Footballnut]

He did visit Bama, they were going to offer him if certain things didn't break their way. He was on their B-List... which should mean something. Also, for that tweet, it still has been quiet... as of right now he's not committed.

 

[Snick]

As far as I can see he has not committed yet....

Stool there are about 300 of these diamonds in the rough that end up finding a home somewhere........why is it that ours are always the best?

Ye and I both know it's a crapshoot when it comes to these guys......every team takes a shot on a few guys. If itnworks out then that's great.......but history shows that thee chances are slim.

 

[iruletheskool]

What have ye done with the real jjm??

 

[Jack_John_Mark]

What have ye done with the real jjm??

Don't worry stool.......Huskerz are always fer Champz.

But I'm burnt out on pretending like the recruits that we get are all underrated and all that.

We will find a way to win it all when next season rolls around, but it aint gonna be because of some diamond in the rough True Freshmen.

 

[Footballnut]

By the way... Bama just offered Markell.

I wish I could find that article that explains why it is better to have 2-3 star talent rather then 4-5 star. Basically it explains that 4-5 stars hit thre roof as far as being able to improve on coverage and route running. But a 1-2-3 star can be coached up to be a better talent the blue chip prospects. Also a 3 star in the big 3. would likely be a 4-5 star anywhere else.
