We missed this guy
- Thread starter catch54
- Start date
I wish I could argue against this. But I can’t. I had hoped that Rhule would fix this. But he can’t.
You said NU was your second favorite team and you post here...now you want to NOT participate?
At least the Iowa QB’s won’t be getting routinely sacked like Raiola did behind Nebraska’s pourous offensive line.
They very recently got a commitment from another out of Nebraska...pretty sure Nebraska will regret this one.
I love my team for sure. That’s why I’m here. Why do come to the husker board - do you love us too.
you weren’t sad to miss the playoffs? Is that because the coach has never given the fans the chance to hope for something more?
You excited for your QB?
No disputing that. Do you think they should be able to throw basic flat passes to win the game with such good protection?
you should probably mentally prepare for more of these post game interactions …
And before you say it… yes he will be horrible next year but will likely throw for 350 and 4 TD’s and rush for another 75 against us.

Our starting QB is going to be Hecklinski. He's going to be good.
Husker player analysis is worth slightly less than a pile of dog crap so no need to project.
You're making the point for him. This is exactly the type of kid Coach Osborne brought to Lincoln, turned over to Boyd Epley for three years, and turned into an NFL player. He looked at frames, potential, and then DEVELOPED them. There's that word again.
Dean Steinkuhler, Aaron Taylor, Neil Smith and many others had few offers and certainly nothing from any "blue blood." All of them became dominant linemen and played professionally (Taylor's career was short, but the other two were stallions). Gee, even a guy like Tom Welter became a great player for us.
Rhule says he won't recruit in-state kids unless they can beat Ohio State or make the playoffs (I can't find the exact quote). Not many kids will be in that category as true freshmen, and the ones that are won't be coming to Nebraska. That's why we need to develop kids who have that potential.
I'm certainly no Iowa fan, but I admire that they know who they are. They won't out-recruit Texas or Georgia, so they go get those kids with the frames that can be developed. They are tough and physical in both lines and make us look like pussies.
Here's this doofus's quote:
“The whole thing like, hey, you should be the first offer at Nebraska? You know, desperate teams always set the market. Let me say that one more time. In rev share and all this, desperate teams set the market,” Rhule stated. “If they know that, hey, straight up, we can’t beat a Big Ten team or we can’t beat Nebraska, then we better offer them a year earlier and say Nebraska doesn’t care about you. We care about you. We just, um – we’ve got to make sure that you’re, you’re going to help us beat Ohio State.”
Hasn't been great. I want an OC that has been a successful oline coach.
You're comparing different eras of college football.
Also, are you trying to compare Tom Osborne to Kirk Ferentz in how they recruited?
Rhule never said that. If so, why did he take 8 Nebraska boys in 2024, 6 in 2025 and 3 so far in 2027? Even if he did, why should he take a Nebraska kid just because he's from Nebraska?

Right, he's talking about being the first to offer or not.
