Recruiting Tangent Thread

It's just a stupid stat to bring up.  Congrats to him for intercepting 4 passes against players that couldn't make it on the lowest level D1 team.  It doesn't really matter.

It's just a stat.  Don't need to read too much into it, or tear it down. 

Besides, do the best CBs have the most interceptions?

Isn't that all high school stats as well?  Why do NCAA stats matter when it is against players that couldn't make it on the lowest level professional teams?  Doesn't anything really matter?

It seems to be important to other people.  Not me

Show me where we compare what a HS kid did to the Husker DB's.

Duly noted. We can discuss stats but not in relation to Husker DBs. You run a tight ship StPaul.

Did he have those INT's against B1G quarterbacks?  Was he defending B1G wide receivers?

This is the part where you try to claim you're just trying to ask honest questions to get information, right?

No this is the part that I say your and the other mods comment about his INT totals is pointless

Anybody know why he got booted at Kentucky?

He left on his own because Kentucky didn't think interceptions were very important stat

 

[FrankWheeler]

He left on his own because Kentucky didn't think interceptions were very important stat

Because he wasn't playing against B1G Quarterbacks or B1G Wide Receivers.

He plays in a league against Arizona Western, the school where Elijah Blade is currently (not to mention Desmond Bland). Blades only had 1 INT vs Jackson's 4 INT. I guess here we are comparing apples-to-apples.

BTW, Blades has 16 D-1 offers, including Alabama, LSU, Florida, Miami, and Oregon.

It is not pointless.  It is a fact.  You don't like it so you take it upon yourself to s#!t on another thread.  And it's getting really old.

Because he couldn’t play basketball.

It is pointless.  What he did versus JUCO players has nothing to do with what our DB's did or didn't do.  It's just your way of s#!tting on the last coaching staff.  And that gets old.

But from now on I will do backflips for every unrated player that Frost and Co gets to commit.  Apparently that is the only acceptable opinion allowed on this board.

Nope, but I am sure you don’t mean to say that experience and stats are meaningless unless they occur in the B1G. The new defense is built on takeaways, so they get a guy with 4 INT at the JUCO level last season. I don’t see how this is a hill you want to die on.

S#!tting on the old staff is warranted and relevant because (1) they were terrible and (2) it was last season. I doubt that is a hill you want to die on, either. Still, the point about Jackson’s stats is the need to have players that can create turnovers.
