I have a hard time believing that recruit would be swayed by the negativity of a bulletin board.

It's Twitter mostly, but opposing coaches do direct recruits to our boards as form of negative recruiting.

Well, I hope that these guys are smart enough to understand that just because an anonymous account portrays themselves as a fan of an institution, it doesn't make it true.
There are a lot of no life losers out there trolling.

Would agree with this. The coaches using it to "sway" recruits, but not the kids themselves. IIRC, one coach in the B1G and maybe SEC (don't recall other conference) are already doing this from an earlier article.

I think that kids being recruited by FBS schools are much more savvy than we give them credit for. A lot more.

Fans have opinions. Rarely are they the same. Especially with something as volatile as NU football. 5 games in and this board is getting divided. In season one. Not season 7..... Look at how the fan base was with Bo. Imagine if social media was around with TO. (for younger fans, A LOT of people wanted TO fired)........

 
Hey Keshawn's son...come here and help shut people the FU. Or don't.

Theres like 30 people who post here regularly. There's 2,000,000 Nebraska fans who don't. You decide who to listen to. We love us some Cornhusker football and you will too, but some of the loudest voices can be negative. You decide who to listen to.

Also, HCMR...go win some games to prove it.

I totally understand where Keyshawn is coming from about how the crap spewed across these boards can have a negative impact on recruiting. What others fail to see though is that losing has an even greater impact on recruiting. I think recruiting would be at an all-time low If things continue on this trajectory for a couple of years. Regardless, any little bit we can do to help out the program, I am all for it. So I hear you Keyshawn, tone it down. Got it.

Literally, nobody fails to see that. Nobody. Not a single person. The difference is there's nothing we here can do about the losses. But we can stop being super negative, and we can stop bringing up the obvious problems in every single thread and post as if nobody is aware of them.

I posted this comment in the "Commitment" topic the other day but I think it's appropriate here also:

Riley is our coach....he chose his assistants (good choices or bad) they are the assistants.

I dislike the westcoast offense scheme...we need to run the ball...we have good talent and need to get healthy so our starters are all playing at the same time.

There are lots of comments on here about fire this guy...fire that guy....get a new AD etc. We have who we have and that isn't going to change just because we make comments about them and what we/they would/should do.

If you feel upset by the losses we have had so far this season...think how the players must feel. You know this season isn't what they have hoped it to be!

The players read these posts and I'm sure the comments don't make them feel any better.

All of this is going to take some time to level out...if not..there will be changes made.

Everyone is entitled to their opinion...rightly so...but one thing to remember when knocking players....

When you are up to your a$$ in alligators...it's hard to remember you are there to drain the swamp.

GBR
