If NU is going to try and get a Brennan/Nix caliber QB they're going to have to sell them not just on the university but what tools they're going to put around him to be successful... Great, we got Raiola to coach the OL... now what? If I'm a QB sell me on who's here and who you're bringing in to protect my ***... then... sell me on who I'm throwing too and handing off too... Huskers have some glaring holes that need addressed and quickly to get a QB who's trying to make his mark to get to the next level... that's a tough sell... doable but tough

I think him returning to LSU is the biggest competition. Ole Miss is also in the transfer QB market and would be tough to beat. He is from Mississippi and Kiffen is a good QB developer.

Agreed. I think our coaches really are all in on him, but I'm not so confident we get him even though I don't see why he wouldn't give it a shot here now that we've got Whipple.

Brennan would be a solid pickup, but I hope we also pursue plan B before potentially getting left at the altar.

Plan B, Plan C, Plan D, Plan E, etc.

we need 2 quarterbacks from the portal, and to have 5 on scholarship at all times.

no refrigeration - eat or be eaten in that room. else we end up with maggot-infested, putrid, rotten results.

Guys that are going to protect the qb and receivers who are going to catch have been a major problem last three years. Of the two QBs only Nix can run for his life.

Adrian wouldn't have had to run for his life so much if he could have identified the open guy and got him the ball. Throw in being able to complete a screen pass.
