S Noa Pola-Gates [Nebraska - Signed LOI]

[B.B. Hemingway]

He doesn't think Gates should have "lied" about his recruitment still being open. 

Poor guy feels deceived.

That guy sounds like a real winner.

Few days old but I haven't seen mention of this tweet in the thread anywhere. Forkers seemed to think it pointed to good things for them but I think it can easily be viewed in a positive light for us. Especially so with the slew of recent c-balls.

Rather should have said "my emergence from lurking"... I've spent enough time here to appreciate your "/s"

247 drama. He started slinging crap around at Huskers fans and started saying how much more in the know he was about the NPG situation but never put a CB in for him. Then he locks the board after he posts a story basically outing NPG as already signed instead of waiting for him to announce at the Poly bowl like NPG wanted so obviously it ticked people off. Then he puts in a CB to Nebraska so now he's getting it from ASU and Nebraska fans. 

One of the replies to his tweet:

So I know he is rated as a safety. I think it was a 247 article after the all american game that mentioned he could play multiple spots in the secondary. Are we looking at him as a safety or CB? 

Seems like safety is easy to recruit for us.

Sounds like we are going to give him a look at corner.  But safety is probably a more natural fit for him.

I'd agree with this. As his height goes down it sure seems like Noa is our (might regret saying this) Bookie for the year. Hard hitting, undersized, ideally a play maker. 

Hopefully he's more successful off the bat.

Bookie's size/body type was pretty impressive I thought. Noa looks to be pretty darn skinny.

You're probably right weight wise. I don't really have much to compare except that Noa seems to have shrunk from 6'2 to anywhere between 5'8-5'10 and is a hard hitter. Also the flexibility between positions. 

Bookie was much more of a magnetic personality for peers too. Off topic really and I'm very excited to have Pola-Gates hopefully in the fold.

As am I (assuming the "commitment" holds).

That can happen as you age.
