NOOOOOOOO!!!! :ahhhhhhhh
We need to reverse the trend against Wisconsin and begin kicking their a*s on the field to put some separation from them in the recruiting arena. They are coming off a season where they had one of the best defenses in the nation, while we had one of the worst.
This notion of "coming in to play right away" has to stop. If someone is good enough to play, they will. Doesn't matter where they go.
Unless, of course, you are Bo Pelini and only let LaVonte David play because someone got injured.
I'm referring to you and anyone else that keeps saying the same things about depth chart and early playing time.If you are referring to me, that is not what I was saying. I was referring to the fact that as a recruit you would probably like the idea of early playing time (if earned). Not that I think he can/will come in and play right away.
This is simply wrong. So the depth chart at Nebraska and Alabama are the same? Because according to you if he is good enough he will play. So lets break it down. If on a scale of one to ten, Honas is 7.5. There may be five schools in the country that all of their starters are 8.5+. Nebraska's returning ILB is about a 6.0. So explain to me again how that doesn't matter? He would be stuck behind certain players at other schools. He most likely wouldn't at Nebraska.I'm referring to you and anyone else that keeps saying the same things about depth chart and early playing time.
No the depth charts aren't the same. No one said they were. but I guarantee you that Saban puts the absolute best 11 on the field regardless of grade. That's why players go there. because they know they will have a shot no matter whatThis is simply wrong. So the depth chart at Nebraska and Alabama are the same?

Thank you for making our point. Depth charts matter.No the depth charts aren't the same. No one said they were. but I guarantee you that Saban puts the absolute best 11 on the field regardless of grade. That's why players go there. because they know they will have a shot no matter what
On what random arbitrary scale are you using? I think you are flying by the seat of your pants on this one.This is simply wrong. So the depth chart at Nebraska and Alabama are the same?

Scale was an example. It isn't meant to be scientific. All I'm saying is that you can't expect recruits, especially JUCOs, to not look at the best situation for themselves regarding the depth chart. Not saying they all do, but to say it doesn't matter is false.On what random arbitrary scale are you using? I think you are flying by the seat of your pants on this one.
Not sure how you get that. But whatever.Thank you for making our point. Depth charts matter.
Fair enough. I think we can both agree that Honas would provide an immediate upgrade to the linebacker core.Not sure how you get that. But whatever.
