Dylan Still Talking with Kirby/Georgia

Or Trev and Matt also find this to be a great PR move. Signing day is the stage to announce on. Be THE team that shocks people and makes a move.
This is what I have been telling myself for 4 days now. It keeps me semi sane.
Probably hilarious for them watching us squirm. I could see that being matt rhule humor as well. Doesn't add up to me. I think he's N
I guess we just have to hope for a happy ending. It could still happen. But I can’t think of a crazier 10 days of Husker football; the rumor mills before the Frost and Rhule hirings were nothing compared to this.
Sort of feels like being 5-3 and being a win away from finally making a bowl game, doesn’t it?
If you recall in the movie, them boys created bridges after others were blown up and built a final bridge with their enemy. "You know what's in that bank, Baby...."
It is not lost. Still my favorite of all time. Following Kelly's Heroes is the Dirty Dozen, The Longest Day, The Undefeated, Father Goose, Going My Way, McClintock, Stagecoach (1939) among others. These are my standbys when I prepare for bed and allow my wife's cats to purr and sleep on my lap in my recliner.
Regardless of what happens, for any player considering Georgia there's certainly the appeal of the wins the team has had on the field. BUT there's also a warning sign that players should consider as well. And that's the large number of their players entering the portal. Whether i's due to lack of playing time, broken promises, a poor culture or something else it's obvious a number of players find out they're not happy being there.
My gut says he's staying with Georgia and that's the reason why he's not yet announced for Nebraska. Call it cold feet. He had a last minute doubt about where he wanted to go, but now he feels better about Georgia.
The thing that makes me most upset about this whole situation (if it plays out like this), is did DR's last minute dramatics cost us the OSU QB? Did we tell the OSU QB to keep looking elsewhere because we thought DR was in?

Care to elaborate? Is there going to be a rally outside Memorial Stadium to fire up the mob or are we talking about anonymous posts on message boards becoming more unpleasant?
As you know, it would be HOW it happened that would be the most upsetting. On one hand you would have Dylan and/or his agent getting word out that he was going to NU. And this would be the third time that he spurned NU. On the other hand, you have Rhule & Co. who haven't done anything to calm the waters- seemingly passing on a 3rd team All Big 10 QB transfer in the process. And then there's the mega hype coming from the sports media that makes things worse like it always does.

Boosters will be upset. they will get there money back, but the credibility of the staff will take a hit. There’s also the question of Donovan Raiola as I don’t know if he’ll have a job if Dylan doesn’t sign he’s LOI. Don’t kid yourself thinking he was retained because of performance, and that raise was essentially a finder’s fee for getting NU back in the mix for Dylan.
I still think Dylan signs, and He, the Staff, and recruiting outlets will continue to milk this till Wednesday.
The Boosters getting upset could be a real concern, but it depends on the personality of the booster. If someone is a major booster to the program after all of these years then, rest assured, those boosters are as loyal as any German Shepherd on the planet.
It doesn’t matter if he commits now or at 5pm on NSD. It’s isn’t a done deal until he signs. Getting bent out of shape over an 18 year old’s decision is insanity.
