Kong why are you such a douche? I bet your friends and family just live hanging around your sorry ***.
Let's see who is right
Let's see who is right
McCord out?
- Thread starter Lincoln100
- Start date
Maybe we shouldn’t overreact to McCord’s decision? He left when he wasn’t guaranteed a start in a bowl game. He sounds a little bit like a *****. DR comes into the scene and coach says he isn’t guaranteeing anything as far as starting, and McCord moves on. Or any couple other dozen of possibilities
This. If true I'm kinda shocked that either McCord or DR would make a starting ultimatum.
Your theory is very smart and probably dead accurate
Bring kids in on an OV just to tell them to hit the bricks
Classic move
Why? He has one year to play. What would you do if the number one qb in the country is coming here and he is going to play snaps? That is a big risk for any portal qb to take that has only one year.
Dylan is an incoming freshman with much more upside than any transfer. If the coaching staff was faced with either choosing McCord or Raiola, I think they made the right choice.
Well maybe after he met him and had a discussion with him.
Hmm another classic move
Classic bait and switch!
Like when you get a divorce, you take your wife out to a super fancy dinner, some live music, a walk along the water...you tell her you love her and then BAM...serve her those papers.
I’m not all that surprised. He doesn’t have to pick a destination until the middle of January. There could be a bid off for him before it’s over. On our part McCord was a quick fix short term answer. Raiola you can probably build a program around. IF I have to choose between the two I’m taking Raiola.
Exactly. He is most likely leaving OSU because he wasn’t guaranteed a starting job. He then comes here thinking he is a lock for a starting job given the talentless QB room we have. Then he is told DR is coming and no starting job is guaranteed and that it will be an open competition. He bolts.
I'm okay with it. I don't want anybody who thinks the job should be guaranteed to the.
Exactly. Let’s hope Chubba sticks around so we have at least one guy who looks like a QB.
The kid was already here when Raiola made news. Do you tell the kid not to come just in case DR changes his mind and wants to come to Nebraska after all?
Edit: if anyone should get this, and applaud it, it’s you, Kong… if Rhule told him not to come and DR stayed at Georgia, you would have lost your crap about how dumb our coaches are for hoping for a flip that would never come.
Or your wife shows up for the fancy dinner and you have a younger, hotter girl with you and tell her you want them to compete.
because the staff are literally throwing both onto the trash heap with this gigantic public display of an aggressive QB pursuit
they've met with everybody they possibly can, posted tons of pics, etc
all the "I'm proud of them, they can improve, etc." talk has completely evaporated and it's clear the staff have no plans for either of them here
Maybe but I disagree
If I had a choice I would take a a returning starter who made a power 5 all conf team vs someone who has never played a college down
We were much more assured of getting well above average QB play next year with McCord than Raiola or any other QBs in the roster.
Look at all the other 5 ⭐️ QBs - through the years there are simply no guarantees
Arch Manning and Brock Huard’s kid aren’t setting the world on fire
what drama?
have you seen this place the last 2 days.
off-season - by far the best time to be a Husker fan. the rumors, the assumptions, the self-fellating. so much fun
here's hoping the news gets better this weekend
and double hoping we can still make a push for Howard
Doing what you always do… instead of trying to understand why Rhule would bring McCord in and then tell him we don’t have a spot do to DR being back in play, you stir the pot by attempting to paint the coaches in the worst light.
You may give credit where it is due, but you also can’t help but stir the pot when anything is questionable. It’s in your DNA.
I don’t disagree with that way of thinking, but I could also say that McCord’s play was a product of the talent around him. I think the bottom line is, with Raiola NU could get three to four years out of him vs just one.
It’s a crap shoot regardless, dealing with diva QB’s will be the norm going forward every year.
Rhule did not bring mccord in just to tell him he's not welcome here
obviously.
that's the dumbest thing I've ever heard.
much more likely mccord came in and saw satterfield working on his morning coloring book and laughed his way back to the airport
Do people think some of the decisions to come back - or not go into the portal of current players was based on the assumption that we would be much more competitive with a quality portal QB?
Right now our starting QB is a true freshman or someone already on roster. Seems like it could be another rough year given the more difficult schedule

I’m hoping the staff is pretty damn confident that Raiola is a done deal, and also that Raiola is truly the generational talent they think he is.
Likely lots of growing pains before he gets things rolling.
We need a major upgrade at the position. They can stay for the scholly and be backups.
