*** 2017 Recruiting ***

The only way I see this hurting recruiting is if a coach from say UCLA or USC or Oregon...etc. has a kid that is kind of, sort of.....questioning if he would be comfortable going to college in Nebraska. In that instance, I can see a coach saying....well, yeah.....you're black. look at what Rickets and Daub have said. That's what all those Nebraskans think.

Will it be a mass problem with recruits??? No. But, it can affect someone at some point in time.

This weekend, we have a HUGE group of recruits coming in. How is it viewed by the recruits if the three players kneel again and they get booed from the stands?

They're not on the field for the anthem.
Who isn't?
The players
They aren't???? Hmmmm....never noticed that.
Players are never on the field for the anthem.

Players warm up then go to locker room. Band does their pre-game show with the anthem at the end. Then comes the Tunnel Walk.

It's amazing the number of games I have been to and never really have thought about that.

Pretty disrespectful to our country that you're obviously not really paying attention bro!

I'm sure it has more to do with him looking up at the flag the entire time

Well....I'm pretty sure it's probably because my focus is on something other than the team at that point in time.

(do i really need to mention that i am just messing with ya?)

 
I think I have this decently updated. Let me know if I'm missing someone.

14 commits on our way to (possibly) 24. I think we're looking for 1 RB, 2 WR, 1 OT, 2 DT, 1 DE (JUCO), 1 LB, 2 CB and 1 S but that's obviously 11 for 10 spots. Might not take a JUCO DE if we don't get Van Ginkel. Could live without another OT. Could also see Dwayne Johnson not come back for a fifth year. Possibly Adam Taylor as well which could open up a couple more spots.

Priority:

DT - Only four left after this year. Behind by not taking one last year. For sure need two.

DB - Our roster isn't in bad shape but we don't have any commits there yet.

WR - Good with the two we have but we're after four and seem to be slipping with our top targets.

RB - Roster in good shape but I'm not sure where we are on these recruits.
