Good point, it's Mickey's room and he is way better than any WR coach we've had. He will find his best 6 guys. It's safe to say a lot more guys than 6 will get reps in the first 3 games, which will help down the road as well.
He’s been hurt this year too (Hickman)
Playing favorites & half the room didn’t even know what route to run.
What does it say about Frost’s ‘eye’ for WR talent when our best receiver, so far, is a transfer from Dakota, out of small bus load of guys? And still recruiting them with so many other positions with inadequate depth or ify starters.
Mickey ain't making no chicken salad. He's better than that.
I'm with you. He did great with first round picks and Joe Burrow. Let's see how he does with our unproven bunch first before we say he is the best WR coach in the conference or anything like that.
I think it's been a combination of some poor recruiting, including what was here when he got here, and poor developement. But Mickey essentially came in and put the 2021 WR recruiting class (Hardy, Neville, Grimes) on notice and it's already been stated that Victor Jones, who is the one receiver not recruited by Joseph in the 2022 class, is also going to struggle to see the field here. They are only freshman and there is a good chance that all 4 of those guys will be recuited over and pushed out by next year so. That in itself is pretty telling if he doesn't even think it's worth trying to develop them further.
I know they have moved him back and forth but even as a tight end he looks pretty slow. Unless he has an insane vertical and velcro hands I don't really see where his niche is.
I said this prior as well and agree. Neville, Grimes, Hardy, and Jones will not finish their careers at Nebraska if I had to guess.
