Dont need him. Thanks,If for no other reason than to see the meltdown on their site
They gonna throw and pass block for themselves?
I'd attribute a lot of the WR recruiting success to the fact that the guys seem to really like their WR coach, the fact that Nebraska can point to guys like Kenny Bell and Jordan Wester-stache and their production, and, lastly, Nebraska, not unlike Notre Dame, is simply a more well recognized national "brand."
Having good players never seems to be Nebraska's problem.
Just confirmed this with the LSU site.
TE Kurt Rafdal is NOT visiting LSU this weekend.
LSU no longer has a spot for him.
Nebraska does need Rafdal at TE. Who wouldn't want him, his skill set and height at 6'7", then combine that with Austin Allen at TE being 6'8".
Those two would combine to be very dangerous weapons.
I suspect Rafdal is now pondering through a hard decision whether it's Nebraska or Iowa for him. With the way Nebraska is going to throw the ball beginning next season, I sense it very well could be Nebraska in the end. But who knows?
Good luck to him wherever he goes.
Ummmm.....yeah. QB's Taylor "Lead the NCAA in turnovers 3 years in a row" Martinez and YOLO bomb Armstrong for the last 8 years has been really stellar.
Yeah we brag about recruiting rankings cause we can't win important games on the field anymore. Signed husker fans. Hope Riley realizes you need strong running game to win those November games in big 10.
That's my point point. Tommy was a talented player, and yet it never panned out. Nebraska probably had 6 receivers better than anybody Iowa had this year. They have really good players. They've always had really good players. That hasn't been their issue.
Unless Nebraska is dangerously low depth-wise at TE, I don't see how Nebraska's offense in '17 should impact the young man. TE is a physical enough position that typically it benefits guys at TE to redshirt first.
Given that Iowa beat out Nebraska for 2 TEs last season ... my guess is that Nebraska is due to beat Iowa out for 2 TEs in this season's recruiting cycle.
The last thing we need to be saying in a thread with Husker fans is "history matters."
Armstrong is a talented athlete, but he certainly isn't a talented QB when it comes to throwing the ball. Riley will finally have someone who can sling the rock.
I'm not just talking about Tommy. They have played below their talent for years, and people are bragging about them brining in more talented players.
Maybe they will figure it out, maybe they won't. They have the players, they just don't seem to know what the hell to do with them. If they are going to continue to take this talent and just roll it out on the field like dice, then who cares how 4 star receivers they get.
For them that's all they have. But he's talking about one position not overall program. Maybe recent history is better for you.
Yes I'm talking only about the tight end position. Historically, Iowa has been tremendous sending TE's to the NFL. Perhaps a poor choice of words on my part.

There will be no melt down over losing a three star, that only happens on the Iowa board.
Iowa only needs 2 star guys to score touchdowns on Nebraska.
That being said, I still want some better recruits.
But no where close or even in the same ball park to the epic meltdown the husker had on their board on 11/25/16.

It matters.....To Husker fans. It don't mean shit here. What have you done for me lately?
Not worried about our ability to house Nebraska head-to-head, I think we'll always be able to do that. But, they won more games than us this year and as long as we are recruiting at this level there is a chance that could happen again. We can't be losing to teams they beat.
I know I certainly loved going to games during those seasons...boy have we been spoiled!
When it is 9:20 in Lincoln what time is it in Iowa City?
40-10
At least skirt fans have VHS tapes of their way back glory.
Nebraska was relevant in the VHS era. Sure hope your tapes and vcr's hold up.
Great. It is always fun to watch our lower ranked recruits beat you 40-10.
