Obviously we did not blow UCLA out but that tape was very telling. We absolutely manhandled them and if you mute the game, it is even more apparent. I am not saying our coaches negative recruited UCLA but I am sure the players told them how easy it was to maul them. I think these recruits know Nebraska has a greater ceiling than UCLA.

So the article names Rayhme Johnson as the accused in all of the text. If you watch the video, they slow it down where it happened... it's not Johnson, not his jersey number, and they straight up use the name of a different player in the news clip...? Did I miss something?

Yes I think you missed it - video shows it to be #16, which is our guy. He changed gloves afterward and it was enough of a violation that it was reported to the state and he missed at least one game. Maybe I'm old school, but this to me screams lack of character and maturity. As does being a no show for a spring game at the university that you're committed to. Smells bad to me, real bad. I'm out. Not a fan. ( And BTW it was reported in a number of news sources in addition to Bleacher Report. This is a University of Miami move, not a University of NE move)

He was a sophomore in high school. The things I did to my buddies as a sophomore would get me in trouble too. Relax and let kids be kids. The no show to spring game means he probably just isn't that interested......or maybe he told the school but forgot to let his buddy know. I feel like you are judging him to harsh.

No, I read into that they didn't want to go to the UCLA game too bad.
He did say him, Pickett and Rahyme are OV for Oregon game.

Nah. We can take him and at worst he falls victim to attrition, just like cmhusker predicted.

Agree to disagree all - I'd just prefer to chase equally talented players without the history of issues. And come on Huskinator, you in the middle of a crowded FB game being filmed, as a just signed recruit to UCLA with lots of attention and press would go out and rub Icy Hot in a kids face? And I can't imagine these boards if a local kid who had verbally committed just decided not to come to the spring game. Again I won't beat a dead horse, but I disagree with you two on this one.

I don't know details why he didn't attend Spring Game.
Could've been a prom or a team spring practice? Who knows?

Or.... It was a really stupid thing a 15 year old kid did and now he wishes he didn't and has learned his lesson.
Now, if there is something else that he has done to show this is a pattern of actions and he hasn't learned a lesson then so be it.
At this point I'll welcome him with open arms and trust the coach's judgment on this issue.

This incident does scream lack of character, however if you look at most teenagers they have done things that they look back at and wish would not have happened. Our coaching staff is full of character and i'm guessing that since they have offered this player both parties have come to the conclusion that this will not happen again. This kid has shown that he isn't 100% committed to UCLA and guessing the staff there has been informed.
"i'm out. Not a fan" - not sure what is meant by that, however I hope this kid is in!!!!
