I don't know how true this is. 

There's only so much you can do when your boss, the guy that officially gives the schollies says you gotta do something. I think the more details that come out, the more I buy into the idea that Riley was handcuffs.

This is a discussion for another thread but I think there's plenty of examples that pretty much lead to this conclusion.

Wow, if this is true, we never had a chance under the Riley era.  This is crazy talk.

We never stood a chance, and it doesn't sound like Riley did. It's a shame. Obviously, things worked out in the end for us by getting Frost, but you have to wonder if things may have been a little different if Riley was forced to make decisions like this, and others that we've heard come out. 

 
What a statement by Frost on this one. I love it! Even if he sticks with the Badgers atleast the whole state of Nebraska knows Frost isn't gonna let you out of Nebraska without him having a say. Too bad Fant isn't in highschool still, Frost wouldn't of let that go easy.

I agree, more and more is sounds like Billy D. and Diaco had  real crap show going and unfortunately  Riley didn't have the fortitude  to overcome it.

No one was ever really sure what Devaney's role was but Diaco was really big on certain "measurables" for each position.  If you didn't fit the mold, you weren't for him.

Chip Kelly ran his defense for the Eagles like that.

If he'd come to Lincoln, we likely would've seen more of the same.

I wonder if its what riley signed on for or if the power vacuum just got filled by others.  if thats what riley signed on for he has no one to blame.

Billy D was in the Rams front office when they were in St. Louis.  That should be all we need to know about his competence.  To see him go from one team I kinda cared about to a team I very much cared about was a heart breaker.  Get him out of there now!

 
If I remember right, the staff was not planning on taking more than the DT they already had committed.  That's a main reason why they passed on this kid.  The other DT is also a Nebraska kid.

Now, with the coaching changes, there might be more scholarships open up to where we can take more.

Does anyone know if he was planning on signing in December?

 
Still 100% badger from whispers I’ve heard/seen.

big factor here, other than the late attention, is Bryson wasn’t born here and “grew up bleeding all things Huskers”.  Kids can do whatever they want and power to them.  But Frost, going forward,  wins just with this offer.

Mom and family are big Husker fans.  Mom is from GI.  I believe Huskers have always been part of his life.  He was born in Nebraska and moved to Rockford when he was young.  Problem is that he has seen himself at Wisky for a while.  Who knows?
