definitely deserves it and about time. Now if they’d do the right thing and give McCaffery, Newsome, Benhart, Chase and Hickman there 4th stars they deserved. Either way we are top 15 in Rivals. Solid class so far.
Jamie Nance gets 4th star...
- Thread starter huskerssalts
- Start date
One could make an argument for Thompkins but his injury maybe what kept him from getting his 4th star.
Bumps us up to 15th,thought we would be in the top 15 after Wandale’s flip..
Benhart as a 3 star is complete bs.
Benhart for sure. Every service outside of Rivals has him a 4-star and 247 has him the #64 ranked player in the country.
Exactly, that’s including McCaffery. He’s a 4 star on ever site but Rivals. ESPN has Newsome and Hickman as 4 stars and 24/7 has Chase as a 4 star. Point being, we have a good class going with a possible 14 4 stars that are committed to us...when you count for every recruiting site into play.
I just hope he signs in December. I have zero insider info, but I’ve seen this story play out a million times.
OU and Okie Lite have not offered. OU has 2 5 star WR commits and OkIe Lite zero WR commits. Come February a 5 star jumps ship from OU and all of a sudden this kid has an eleventh hour offer.
Or Okie Lite strikes out on all of their WRs they offer and here comes the eleventh hour offer.
Get this signature in December. Get this kid in Lincoln

Nance has seemed to be a big Husker pusher and seems to love the Huskers, Frost and everything we have to offer. So we SHOULD be ok. But your right, we have all seen that happen before. At this moment, Nance is ours and he’s all “N”. So I’m happy and I’ll take it.
He told Okie Light he has zero interest in playing for them. OU literally has commits from the #1 and #4 receivers in the country. They also really only have room for two wideouts.
His coach even stated that he was the best football player on his team if memory serves me right and they had a least 1 five star.
I see huge risk here with the 4th star added, as you've correctly stated, Okie and light haven't offered yet and I think one those will given the change
Not concerned, have confidence, if bumping to 4 changes their minds that would be ridiculous
I always think about it this way. Suppose I liked a really hot girl who had no interest in me. Then I won the Powerball and she had interest in me and started calling me up. Would I take the call because she was a really hot girl, or would I let it go to voice because she was only liked me because of my money? I think I would take the call.
Nance is all in to Nebraska, he's not going to change a week before signing day.
Agreed. Like dude said he’s told Okie Lite he’s not interested and OU don’t need him. He’s been all Huskers and all about getting here and rolling. Something big would have to happen for him to flip, as in Frost getting fired...which will NEVER happen.
It's going to take some time for our fans to get over this battered wife syndrome.
Benhart Rivals rating is laughable
McC and Chase should be 4* as well
I'm fine with Hickman as a 3*
Stars are irrelevant, as long as the staff identifies and knows who they want for a reason/purpose. As we know personality/drive isn't integrated into the star system, just pure athletic ability. I also love that we recruit with a plan for each player, their plan for Wendale is what sealed him for us.

Basically a hypothetical arguement because if I won the Powerball Mrs. HuskerWed would have ideas how to spend it and hot girls wouldn't be one of them.
They were holding off because he didn’t have 4 stars?
If this were a West Coast scheme under Callahan or Riley, it’d be next to impossible to win at a championship level without consistent top 10 recruiting classes which is darn near impossible.
Frost is the first coach we’ve had in the Rivals era where I do not think we need top 10 recruiting classes each year to compete for titles. The are targeting the right fit for their dynamic scheme! The scary part is we are coming off of back to back 4-8 seasons yet we are exceeding expectations in recruiting!
Is it next season yet!!!
Nance has elite speed and excellent separation, he needs more strength but speed kills in Frost offense.
