*** 2019 Recruiting ***

HS_Coach_C said:
I've got to think we go after a JUCO DT, JUCO OT, and maybe a JUCO CB for next class.  Obviously they haven't even gotten to spring ball, but from just looking at the roster right now, these look like areas that the team might need immediate impact players next year.  Wouldn't be surprised to see a grad transfer or two either.

I have no doubt this staff will line up tons of offensive skill players.  I want to see what they can do in the trenches with a full recruiting cycle.

I think we have an underrated DL going into next year. Diaco just didn't have a damn clue and we never worked on individual drills. I think we will see a shake up in how this staff evaluates who is a NT/DE/OLB. 2 more years of the Davis twins, Stolt/Freedom back for one more year, D. Thomas only a true soph, and D. Daniels a rFR. Neal also a guy with size - just needs a little more mass and coaching

I agree they are very solid, I just think they might want someone to help with depth at NT after Stolt leaves next year.  Not saying many of the other guys can't play that position with how this staff sees it - I'm just guessing.  I think Damion Daniels will be good, D. Thomas already flashed his potential, and obviously the Davis twins can be studs.

 
FYI: Nebraska currently has 88 scholarships accounted for, meaning we will see a minimum of 3 more transfers/medical scholarships before fall camp.

As of now, there will be 16 seniors on scholarship this season, meaning we can sign a class of 19 (16 +3 oversign) next year.  With a year to go, I fully expect to have the 2019 class be similar in size to this 2018 class due to attrition.

 
 What is our position breakdown here, Mav? Don't be slacking. 

Joking. But without digging into numbers likely CB and Oline heavy. Probably 1-2 DT's.

Extremely preliminary here but it's a starting point.  16 seniors this year plus over-sign by 3 would be 19.  I'm going to use a nice, round 20 - we have to get down 3 spots from where we are currently before fall camp so it might be 22-23 by a year from now.

Priority:

QB - Frost says one every year but it might be two this year - I expect either POB or Gebbia to leave

OT - A continued trouble spot  but we'll see what the new guys can do

DT - Need to re-stock

CB - We'll have to see how the 2018 guys slot in but we don't have a lot of young ones

Current Scholarships/Commits

QB - 1-2 - Max Duggan, Isaiah Williams
RB - 1-2 - 
WR - 3-4 - Kyren Williams, Marcus Washington, Cameron Coleman
TE - 1 - Chris Hickman
OT - 2-3 - 
OG/C - 1-2 - 

NT - 1-2 - 
DE - 2 - Marcus Hicks, Ty Robinson
LB - 3 - GARRETT NELSON, Nick Henrich, Owen Pappoe
CB - 2-3 - 
S - 1-2 - Jalani Williams
 

ATH - GARRETT SNODGRASS
