Does it really matter whether he was "the second best recruit" or not?

He had tremendous upside. That's all we knew. I'm already over it.

Remember when everyone was so distraught over Lamin picking USC? We picked up two better looking prospects in no-time.

Slade was a project. We'll be fine at that spot.

It'll be interesting to see if we can nab another good DE with so little time left. I imagine some new names will start surfacing very shortly.

Clinkscales is the best recruit Bo has had since he's been here.

End of story.

If I were Urban I'd just sit the young man down and show him Nebraska's rushing defensive numbers for the last 3 seasons. Then I'd show him some quick youtube videos of them getting shredded over the years.

Flashing your conference and national championship rings when you're typing Wisconsin Nebraska Big 10 Championship game probably doesn't hurt any.

Right.

And then all Michigan State (a team that he actually wanted to play for originally) would have to do is show him a tape of how they are better than every other Defense in the Big 10......10 fold. Not even close.

But tOSU has the big name factor. And that is the end of that.

Michigan St is not the blueblood program that Nebraska and Ohio St are.

Coaching likely made the difference here. Urban's got the bling.

Well.....like I said yesterday. tOSU is big time.

They will do whatever they want, whenever they want in this Conference.

They could have 7 win seasons for the next 5 in a row and they will still be the almighty powerful tOSU.


I doubt it. In fact, if Nebraska had four 11 win or better seasons in a row and were playing in the conference championship game, and OSU had four 7 win seasons in a row, I truly believe recruits like this one wouldn't have jumped ship. I bet you Urban told him conference championship and possibly NC types of seasons will be had at OSU, and at Nebraska, nothing of the sort. Winning really is everything.

Urban is cheating and everyone knows it....

There is no need to sit here and pretend like coaching had anything to do with this.

If coaching DID have anything to do with this, then the kid would have had Ohio State on his radar to begin with. Something happened that changed everything out of nowhere. Here is a kid who was thinking about playing football for Stony Brook and not even considering Ohio State........and now at the snap of a finger he's going tOSU.

Fuck that. Something happened. It's gayer than aids too.

According to Rivals and Scout he has opened up his recruitment and is now considering either Ohio St or Michigan St.

If Bo wasn't feeling pressure before he definitely is now.

Avery Moss is gone for sure, Slade turned out liking penises, and Clinkscales doesn't even know how to run a calculator and somehow needs to finish 32 credit hours.

Word is that it didn't look like Mich St had an opening when Slade commited to Nebraska. Apparently they do now.

he wouldn't If he had embraced recruiting earlier in his career

I remember the day urban said he was going to osu..... there goes the neighborhood.

Urban motto: win at all cost and recruit by any means necessary.

Bo is gonna simply have to go full throttle recruiting wise. osu has the name and bling msu has the "coach up " factor

That says that video does not exist for some reason so here's another.


and umm, yeah, twice

That's the vid I tried to post. Must have something to do with my phone.

But yeah, flashing your dong to strangers in public is generally frowned upon and seen as psychological behavior that may lead to becoming a sexual predator. For all we know they offered him treatment in the form of counseling and he was either in denial or not getting to his appointments. The best bet for NU as an institution is to err on yhe side of caution. They are obligated to protect the students and faculty and could be seen as liable if it were to go beyond whipping out his dong.
