Bellevue qb Daniel Kaelin commits to Missouri
- Thread starter cc82huskers
- Start date
Not a comment about him specifically but these days whenever any high school QB commits to some school I always wonder how long it'll be before he's in the Transfer Portal. :Cool:
"want" is such an amorphous word. All kinds of levels of want. Rhule is still in the grace period where I'm trusting him, so for now I want whatever he wants.
this kid and Raiola are the only two QBs in this class Rhule offered
are offers are a proxy for "want"?
yes.
Rhule said he wants kids who want to be at NU. if Kaelin said "coach, I want to come to Nebraska", I believe he'd have gladly taken him & it wouldn't have impacted our quest for the quarterback who just transferred high schools (again).
Sure. There's a lot of time left in this class though. Hopefully Kaelin gave Mizzou his verbal because of Raiola.
You are out of your mind. They haven't even been recruiting him, and there is no way they would take another QB before DR commits somewhere.
I'm liking that list.
If another one is added over the next month or so, I'm going to like it a lot less.
you're right - I got my info (only 2 QB offers) from the fatass who used to run this site & he's since deleted his tweet
some intriguing guys, to be sure:
Can we just call these guys Milo, Alex and Smith? There's no way the "Peters" crowd can deal with these names.
Pass. People would have his name so ****** up nobody would even know what they're talking about.

Sucks to have a power 5 qb in Omaha the year we are going for Raiola but so be it. Odds of having another realistic chance with the #1 qb in the class is slim. Gotta take your best shot.
it's been quite a while since the top QB in the state came to NU
obviously fully agree with going all in on DR
Isn't his sister the chick with the orange hair who played Leeloo in the Fifth Element?
The portal changes things some, in so far as underrated HS QBs aren’t worth as much. Still like to see us bringing in quality HS QBs, maybe an occasional project (need depth anyway).
I’d be much more upset about Kaelin if we weren’t in the mix for Raiola. Even striking out, the portal is fine as a safety plan.
We at least offered Kaelin. As little as we heard, it seems he may have not been that interested in us, like other recent local prospects. Kaelin could see that if we did somehow land DR, his spot here would be a little useless.
This is different than ignoring Flores altogether for a couple years when we were not in the mix for any high profile QBs and took a flyer on east coast Watson, who of course never signed (for obvious reasons).
I’ve said we don’t have to land every local talent, but we better communicate with them.

I don’t think we were recruiting him and I don’t think he wanted to wait around and be our plan B. Can’t blame him.
I read your board often and never comment because I’m not out here being trying to be an *******. Mizzou has been stacking some talent in the QB room. Asking if you all think this kid is any good. He would be our lowest get in some time. He looks the part but I don’t know the talent level in Nebraska. I come in peace and asking your opinions
If Mizzou is stacking talent at QB they may need a new QB coach. I haven't heard a single relevant thing about any Mizzou qbs
Missouri had a peculiar 2022 season. They took Georgia to the wire and could have beaten them, but they also got blown out by KSU and Tennessee. They were stout on defense with a paltry offense. Brady Cook was their starting QB as a sophomore. He had decent stats (2700 yards, 64% completions, 14 tds/ 7 ints). He may be their starting QB for two more years.
He won’t be the starter and will probably transfer. Good kid but he’s not a power 5 guy.
There have been several Omaha metro QBs who’ve gone elsewhere and had success
None in the SEC, however
Is the QB spot at Mizzou up for grabs then? If so, is Kaelin enticed by an open QB competition next year?
…particularly when the local team hasn’t been to a bowl game in 7 of last 8 years…. and the (former) coach doesn’t even want to talk to the most talented players in the state.
Both of those things will hopefully change going forward.
The perception it brings by signing a top HS QB is almost more important then the QB actually panning out. Dylan’s commit alone would land at least 5 other top kids that wouldn’t come here otherwise. I guess one could say it FOMO
Absolutely. I joked? a while back, I wish we could get an NIL deal just to get him to commit, whether or not he stuck with it. Just for the peer recruiting.
