Raiola to the portal
- Thread starter Claud-Henry Smoot
- Start date
About time with that announcement
Good luck DR - appreciate all you did for Huskers. Moving on and excited to see TJ’s development and see the offense shift to a mobile QB. GBR!
Was over the moon when he committed. Have a love hate relationship with the portal. Wish him the best. Interested if his love of the huskers faded, or a business decision.
Least shocking portal announcement, ever.
I would be shocked if Cig would go that direction.
The hits keep on coming. Best of luck to Dylan. Too much soap opera with this program.
My guess is the latter. He could probably help a team that is loaded and protentailly improve his draft stock. Based on his talent I wish we could keep him, but the baggage around him makes him leaving less of a loss.
Raiola family moving on from NU. Next stop is Holgerson pulling some more QB run stuff from the playbooks he has in his possession.
This is a great opportunity to see what the real issue was… if he absolutely lights it up at a different school then we know Dana needs to be shitcanned
If he has a line that will give him 5-6 seconds to throw I would fully expect a Heisman - All American run.
edit: also zone-only coverage from the D’s.
Would have loved for him to stay, but at least the band aid is ripped off and we can actually move forward.
The kind of offense that Holgerson can manage effectively does not equal an offense that suits Dylan's skill set. Pelini was faced with a similar situation and chose TMart over Watson.
Cig could make him a Heisman. He’s talented but we did him no favors
hopefully rhule has that update on the mich qb, sorsby or nico
Indiana runs RPO. Not sure Dylan would fit what they want to do.
I remember hearing something about QBs in the pros....the gyst of it was that QBs can improve their stats, their reads, their recoginition....one thing they never really improve on is the number of sacks they take. So bad line or not, he obviously holds on to the ball waaaaay too long and its evidently something that really doesn't improve even in pro QBs. Best of luck to him, I think we are all ready for this forced marriage to be over with.
You don’t need a mobile QB to run that. You need someone with quick blinker. RPO usually means handoff or pass, maybe a little read but not necessary. Aaron Rodgers was a great RPO QB but using his arm.
Cigs first QB wasn’t that mobile nor did he have designed runs
No surprise for me. From the moment Dayton decommitted this was the most likely outcome ino. After Donnie was canned it was almost certain for me. At this point I would've been shocked had he NOT hit the portal. Good luck to the young man. I like him but he's probably making a wise business decision for himself. Nebraska will be ok .
Holla
I have the same feeling as when the last Cotton finally exited stage left.
Too much influence, not enough results, better to move on.

maybe now we can actually try to get tough and run the ******* ball
True. You can run RPO with no qb run threat but Indiana runs their qb. Triple option RPO works better. Mendoza had 69 carries this year (some were sacks). We ran it a little with Dylan but without the qb run threat it fell pretty flat. I could be wrong but I’d be surprised to see Indiana go for him. I think a traditional pro style offense like Georgia or Miami would be more inline with where he goes. We’ll see. Regardless, 1620 just went over the top qb recruits from Dylan’s class and the year before…almost all of them have transferred. It’s getting harder and harder to care about college football when players are all on one year deals and it’s a giant free agency every year.
I heard that Mahomes hurt his leg yesterday so he could be like DR.
My guess awhile back was Missouri. He just seems like a really good fit there.
Oline coach hire gives me hope this is where we are going
I think it was Eric Mangini I just heard talking about this last week. He was specifically talking about Shedeur and saying that he doesn't expect the sack numbers to improve because that's not something that really changes.
I don’t see Cig wanting to over pay for a QB. He seems to have a style. I think Dylan would kill it there
can't stand Dana's pass happy offense.. he could't design a run to the bathroom
