Signing Day Central

[Footballnut]

says not getting guys from Texas does matter to him, we should get guys from Texas... he mentions that they could have gotten Farrar from Texas but chose to believe Fitz.

 

[iruletheskool]

slammed Dez Fitz

 

[Footballnut]

clearly a bit frustrated by the fitzpatrick situation.

 

[Footballnut]

talks about Engelhaupt that he's glad they had room to take him

 

[Footballnut]

Says that physically Lamar Jackson is ready to play... says his general advice to all of these guys is "come here ready to play, don't come ready to redshirt." A guy like Lamar has that opportunity.

 

[Footballnut]

says if we aren't redshirting guys they will play in games, not just mop up duty

 

[Footballnut]

Says JoJo Domann is a bullet and playmaker, see what he can do.

 

[it'sHuskers4me]

Good stuff guys!

 

[Footballnut]

Saying the secondary is all up for grabs, both the redshirted players (Lee and Anderson) and the new guys. Goes through them name by name.

 

[Footballnut]

talking JUCO players, went after a few guys, didn't get any of them. In general looking for players that will help right away. Didn't get those guys this class.

 

[Footballnut]

talking about Satellite camps, got Bootle there. He's in favor Satellite camps

 

[Footballnut]

Says they were not as productive in satellite camps as he thought they would be for 2016 but did say that 2017 guys were there too.

 

[Footballnut]

talking about pass rush, thinks some of the linebackers we signed could do it, the DEs might be able to as well.

 

[Footballnut]

Mentions Quayshon Alexander as an example of a situational pass rusher they could use on 3rd down

 

[Footballnut]

talking walk-ons right now, loves the current walk-ons. Loves those stories. Thinks the group that is walking on was selected based on their talent and production in HS. Small class.

 

[Footballnut]

going to maintain 130-135 players... offensive linemen are the least likely to play right away

 

[Footballnut]

in Riley's answer about the pass rusher, you could tell he's a bit frustrated with our DL recruiting

 

[Footballnut]

talking about in state recrutiing (lost some key guys out of the state this cycle) and says he needs to revisit how they get into schools and figure out how to make that not happen again.

 

[Footballnut]

talking about commitment videos and how it's changed over time... gives a coy laugh about it (obviously thinks it's a bit ridiculous) but says he understands it's a big deal for the kids "I like it best when they put on the right hat"

 

[iruletheskool]

Dirk craps all over a good presser by asking stupid questions about harbug
