He is here right now correct? Is his mom with him

He's leaving this evening, and his mom could not make the trip. It was an official visit so mom couldn't afford to make the trek with him.

Well if mom doesn't care enough to come here, I don't see how she can justify telling him not to without ever having seen it.

I bet anything she comes along for the Bama visit which is roughly the same distance as RA pointed out.

Mom is gonna screw us on this one, I just know it.

Parents rarely come on official visits. I'd bet that IF he visits (and that is definitely an if) Alabama or Miami that she doesn't go with him because flights just cost too much money. He gets to go for free, she has to pay her way. She was on the phone with her son and Riley for over an hour on his visit here FWIW.

well, i've been wrong before and i'm wrong again. He's visiting Miami and mom is in fact going with him. Definitely looks like mom doesn't want him at Nebraska and will do anything to keep him from coming here. Unfortunate. We'll see how this plays out, we'll know by the end of the week.

I'm seeing our chances dwindle pretty darn quickly here.

Mom just plain and simple does NOT want her kid here for whatever misguided reason.

Well if she claims distance as a factor she's not being truthful if her kid goes to Miami.

From Dallas
Lincoln Nebraska 640 miles
Miami Florida 1308 miles

Round trip flight from Travelocity, Wash, it was actually listed at $400 but I figure there are some extra fees and crap that will be thrown in.
Dallas to Omaha $500.00 through Atlanta I am sure she can easily get a free chaffeur
Dallas to Miami, $500.00 NON Stop

Lincoln, same time zone
Miami, eastern time zone

Top 100 Most Dangerous Cities
Florida has 11 in the Top 100, Miami checks in at #46
Nebraska has ZERO

Miami has Nevin Shapiro
Nebraska has Larry the Cable Guy

Images during a game in Miami, I don't need to post any for Nebraska because those are full and all red. The bottom picture is at halftime when the teams are leaving the field.

There are direct flights from Dallas to Omaha, what airline did you look at? or were you only looking for less than a certain amount. I flew AA just a few weeks ago. looking now, it's $740 for something just a few days out. can get 420 if willing to go through Denver or Chicago. (no clue why you'd go to Atlanta - oh from below, maybe you were looking at DAL instead of DFW).

then if you are looking at during the season, i just randomly chose Oct 10th (Wisc weekend). You can get into Omaha with 1 stop on Thur and leave Sunday for $170 (if willing to go from DAL instead of DFW and go through ATL). it's $400 for nonstop. heck if you want to go direct to Lincoln and don't mind the connection in ATL it's $433 that weekend.

I just typed it in to Travelocity and stayed at whatever the defaults are. I am NOT a travelocity user. I selected the first weekend in September. I WAS NOT TRYING TO BE AS ACCURATE AS POSSIBLE AND GIVE THE BESTEST INFORMATION, and if you noticed I said it was $400 but I added in the extra fees that always seem to be charged that you are not told about and called it $500 bucks.

Thatis Jordan's Twitter account, which is probably in this thread already, and Wisconsin fans are mad at UW Admissions.

Guys mom works in Miami twice weekly apparently.

Pick up and move on from this one. We have plenty of backs who are just as highly touted and MORE highly touted and we'll continue to.

He's not the next Adrian Peterson.

He wasn't the answer to our offense working this year by any means. We'll be fine.
