I think Frost/Verduzco recruiting him may have caused the Rivals evaluation guys to take another look. Frost/Verduzco get (and should get) a lot of respect in terms of them being able to evaluate QBs. JMO.

I also think you'll see other schools always looking at the QB prospects with Frost/Verduzco offers.

Obviously him getting another star doesn't magically make him better, but it makes our class look better, and us fans feel good, so awesome!

And of course your correct. But when Husker fans or any other fans take a look at our commitments...seeing 4 star players is going to gain a little more respect compared to seeing 3 stars. Like you said, it’s a beauty pageant...in a sense...just looks better. But when you land players above the top 50 like Betts and Corcoran, you know you have special talents then. Guys in the top 50 TEND to be a notch above the rest and then you have the guys in the top 10...they are very special.

Lol...im not even thinking of that crap right now. Smothers and McCaffery will end up battling it out for the next QB after Martinez. Let’s see how it plays out.

Edited...plus side here is, McCaffery could be great WR too. There’s a chance if Smothers is better, maybe they could switch Luke to WR. He’d never miss a beat as a WR as well. Dudes definitely got that McCaffery blood in him.

Frost and Coach V carry a lot of weight and evaluation cred when it comes to quarterbacks.

Just a couple weeks ago Frost and Coach V offered a 2021 quarterback and it was his first D1 offer. Within 24 hours 3 other power 5 schools offered the same kid. Sorry I can't remember his name. People know that these two coaches have the knowledge regarding what makes a good quarterback in their system.

Glad he got that important 4th star. I was worried he wasn’t going to be very good otherwise. BTW any chance Bubba could still be a QB for us?

Just hope he sticks when the Big Boys in the South come calling. Sounds solid to me, and would be fantastic in Frost's system. Win-win for this kid all the way around. GBR

Some one sure sounds like a troll. Not one person said he wasn’t going to be good. Most of ya said that much regardless. Heck I said he had that 4 star talent even when he was a 3 star rating. This only shows the Rival heads believe so as well. Now head back to the Iowa, Colorado or what ever boaord. ;)

I don’t see him going anywhere else but the Huskers. Most of those guys already have their QBs. Everyone else doesn’t have anything more to offer then we do. He’s a Husker...like McCaffery, he’s not going to suddenly flip. Committed early, very early on.

I agree and hope he's shut most of them down already. Kid's a beast.

Agreed there. And I was off an Bama, that’s why I edited. But they got a big time QB last year and the year before. They are loaded. Smothers probably thinks this offense is his after Martinez. But I’m sure McCaffery is thinking same thing. Those two will have a monster battle in a few years.

Yup, but I think this kid has a better wing than McCaffery, who could play multiple positions in the end.

And don't think the likes of Clemson, Florida, FSU, etc won't be throwing themselves at this kid at the end of the cycle either, he's that good.

Clemson has 5 star guy this class already. And Trevor Lawrence the year before. Clemson won’t be after him. And I believe Florida and FSU have their QBs as well.

Edited...Florida has A Richarson...FSU has 4 star Pro QB and so does Miami. Bro I think we good. Most big name teams have their QBs already. ;)

Iowa’s 2020 QB got his fourth star as well. It in no way makes them better prospects but it gives fans a warm fuzzy feeling inside.

It definitely does. I noticed the 4 star QB you guys locked in on. It’s awesome our West teams are getting in on the talents too...FINALLY. Wisconsin last years recruiting cycle along with the Huskers and Iowa this year along with the Huskers again. West is loading up. The east time is coming....believe that.

My "bet" tonight is Frost/Verduzio(sp?) are better than all of em at recognizing talent and the way their respective recruit works in a system.

Just gotta beat them on the title game once or twice. Plenty of examples of the west beating the top teams in the east during the regular season. The west is most definitely getting better.

No offense Iowa fan, but you are running the same old, tired offensive system as Wisky and think you are going to beat tOSU, Michigan and Penn State in Conference Championships with that predictable Pro-style system? With 3-stars?

Lol!

Frost is LIGHT YEARS beyond the West OCs.

Your ignorance blinds you. That's a nice way of saying you have ZERO chance of success.
