Can’t remember so many 5.5* or 5.6* or no stars in a class. We usually joke and mid 3* U, but the bar might have been lowered.
If you’re having trouble with these ratings I suggest you look a sports 247 they have a better rating system….They at least have Fields a rating Rivals doesn’t..

See for yourself..

In my rankings, I have them finishing barely inside the top 40, which isn't good but expected given its a transition class. Coach Rhule has only been in Lincoln for a matter of weeks, so him and his staff are doing the best they can. The majority of this class will be guys that never pan out or contribute because they are reaches/projects - but again, that's common in transition classes - and was the case in transition classes for the past few coaches Neb. has been through. This isn't new.

I've been impressed by, but not surprised by, the effort put forth by the entire coaching staff. They certainly are putting in long days and tapping on every connection they have. Its just really difficult when most schools have developed relationships with these recruits for years while these new coaches have had weeks. Its not really fair to even compare them. Now, next yr. and the following years, thats a different story.
Haha....remember when our recruiting guru had us finishing "barely inside" the top 40 according to his rankings. Seems like he may need to recalibrate his metrics 😂

Not sure I understand… the addition of these talented players doesn’t move the needle?
I still have them in the mid-30s range. So, it moves the needle a little bit. I like Ethan Nation athletically but will struggle when matched up against bigger WRs.

You’re correct. Neb is #38 on Ave star ranking. This boards flips back and forth on which one matters or fits the narrative. 3 years ago Ave star mattered.

Love when Hawkeye fans have nothing better to do but actually respond to trolls on a Husker board. Does the klan take the winter off Herky?

Agreed. Guess we'll see for sure 2-3 yrs. from now but I'm confident in my assessment - which is in alignment with historical transition classes.

NEB. was not competing with many peers for the majority of the recruits that signed - but rather lower-level or inferior universities
