Only way we can get proven players. Recruits are not coming, (can't blame them) until we start winning. Use the portal like Snyder used the JUCO ranks. Get back to respectable then we start recruiting at a high level. JMO!

With the extra year granted across the board, it should contribute to a fertile couple of years for the portal if you can work it properly.

Or make life easier by firing Scott Frost and hiring a head coach that high school kids would want to play for.

Get a new coach that knows how to develop players

Imagine how many players Bill Snyder would have pulled in with the transfer portal. Would he have gone heavier on the portal or stayed with his love of the juco?

As the program stands right now this very second, how many good players with options are going to come here? It's no different than recruiting high school kids, they almost always take the best choice. Right now I could argue Wyoming is a better choice.

Not sure how many players will want to transfer to Lincoln given the current coaching situation.
This is correct. That’s why I keep laughing at people who think Frost isn’t actually looking for a replacement at QB. The players want nothing to do with NU.

No qb wants anything to do with Frost because they know his crazy man crush he has for AM.....

Foregone conclusion… hopefully it works like it did for MSU and not some others

Considering Kansas was home to the best JUCO league in the country at that time, he was smart to load up. He would undoubtedly love the portal as well, but the JUCO will always be a part of it.

Speaking of which, the current #2 JUCO in the country is Iowa Western CC, which is a five minute drive from Omaha. Nebraska should be pulling a guy out of there every year.

cant believe for a minute that in 4 years we haven't been able to find a few possibles in the juco or portal in reguards to a qb backup or starter. almost as bad as the overall schizophrenic play. mighty sorry state of husker football
