Deion Sanders, who has treated HS recruiting as pretty much an after thought since he's been at CU, is signing a bigger HS class than NU this year.

We don't have the room for a bigger class since we're loaded with freshmen and sophomores. We will hit the portal for immediate needs which is actually more important at this juncture

We need to get rid of some of the unproductive players to make even more room. Cam Lenhardt, Tristan Alvano and Kwinten Ives immediately come to mind. I’m sure there are others.

I know we have a lot of fans that love the old "This guy really developed into something" story...but if you are not on the two deep by your 2nd/3rd year, you just don't need to be on the team anymore.

Emmett finished 3rd in carries his RS-Fr season, 2nd in carries his sophomore season, and led the team in carries his junior season.
He was 3rd on the team in rushing yards his RS-Fr season, 2nd his sophomore season, and led the team his junior season.

What word would he like, exactly? @RBigredMax1

Cool another 3 star with a marginal offer list.

This all better indicate that we are planning to go ALL IN on the portal, that's all I can hope for at this point.
I'm done believing in this star bullchit. For years, including this year, we get our butts kicked repeatedly by teams with worse "talent." Are Minnesota and Iowa loaded with 4-5 stars? Nope. They're just better coached and play harder and there's no end in sight.

Give me all the 4 star lineman you can.

That's the problem we aren't getting 4 stars where it counts. The lines are kid 3 star players.

We haven't received a 4 star DT since Bo.

Give the negativity a rest already! Rhule is the coach for at least another year so all your whinning and crying isn't doing a bit of good.

.give them something to be positive about
Well beig delusional about our team is sickening as well too.

This always positive bs reminds me of a Cuck husband.

Nebraska sucks right now and these people are making millions.

They need to hear about it. If you don't like it get off the board. Stfu trying to tell someone what to post

How about you give the negativity toward the negativity a rest already. Unless something changes drastically (highly unlikely), if Rhule is the coach for at least another year, there will be pissed off fans for at least another year so all your whining and crying isn't doing a bit of good.

Honestly, pushing through the fog of malaise and depression, it really did look like we were 2 stud DT away from winning two more games this year. Probably didn't need studs, just two reasonably competent run stopping DT's. That just makes me angry, because it should've been obvious to everyone involved.

Oh - I guess I missed the part where he was in the two deep his freshman and sophomore year?

It was a compliment to EJ and his efforts. Dude was buried in the depth chart until the end of the last season. I was only responding that players develop and it doesn’t make sense to give up on them after two years. I don’t think this was a controversial take and EJ was right in front of us an example.

I think Deion has run off most of his roster depth and might be limited in NIL dollars to offer transfers. He’s a dead man walking. On the other hand our roster is loaded with freshmen and sophomores and we need mature portal players. Different situations.

I’m sure there will be a big wave of guys hitting the portal in the next few weeks
I know it’s the way it is, but it still bothers me when we have to process guys. Once a Husker Always a Husker (unless you crap on us) used to mean something to me😕

HS lineman : need to make 2-deep within 3 years
HS other : need to make 2-deep within 2 years
Portal : need to make 2-deep in first year

Anyone not meeting this standard is wasting space.

We’ve had lots of starting O linemen who never cracked the 3 deep until their redshirt junior year. Hard fast rules are bound to be broken.

Those teams have lots of starters who were 4 star players. Iowa picked up a QB who won multiple national championships at SDSU. Where we’ve suffered is in our lines more than anything. Ideally guys who are sophomores and freshmen this year and played situationally will start showing up this next fall. Brix etal. The hole the transition from Frost’s last class and Rhule’s first class was a killer.

Even then, I think our DC played a huge role in their ineffectiveness. Multiple posters on here who I think know their sh$! pointed out during games that they knew what Butler was going to do defensively before it happened. 😡
