OT Andrus Peat [Stanford Commit]

[scarletNcream]

Not sure how this one will go with Stanford taking 5 OL men and looking at 2 more.

I'd like to think that last year before Todd Jr. committed, that the 3 of them (brothers & cousin) collaborated and talked about where they could go to school together, and that Nebraska was the choice...

Yeah, that's it.

Love the optimism, sheepdogmark must be sharing his Red Kool-Aid.

I've been on this since Banner chose SC, now only if Murphy chooses Stanford...

If Peat was to go to Stanford/USC.........would that sting more than Owa picking UCLA??

I would say "yes" due to perception that we couldn't land a 5* even with two relatives being part of the program. Owa was a 4* with no ties. Both positions are/were a need.

No. I invested alot of time is to learning to say Owa's last name. Peat I pretty much got immediately

Uh, he applied to Stanford. The 'S' in HYPSM.

Blah... I don't know what all of that capitalized gobbledygook means. All I know is that Nebraska is better.

Honestly, a full-ride to Stanford is a once in a lifetime opportunity. I don't believe Harvard, Yale, and Princeton give full-scholarships for athletics, which could be the reason he didn't apply to either of those schools, and MIT, if i'm not mistaken, doesn't have a football team. If I were his parent, and thankfully i'm not, i would come close to making the decision for him.

MIT has a football team, I think -- barely.

FLU, It's just you said, "If he wants academics, he should have applied to Harvard or Princeton", and I think it's worth pointing out that Stanford is in the exact same league as those places. Top 3 school in the country, in my opinion.

The only difference is that Stanford has a much, much, much better football program, and they offer scholarships for it.

I don't think Stanford football is any sure bet to stay at the top either. But let's be real - they are pretty up there now, and Nebraska is no sure bet to get there.

I thought Owa was a 5*?!?

Apparently they think Stanford will get Murphy(80% Confidence) and Andrus(50%)...... Which means they have no clue where Andrus is going.

They just had Garry Paskwietz of wearesc.com on espn radio here in Los Angeles (he's basically a Sean Callahan equivelent in LA). He said Andrus Peat is choosing between USC and Stanford, no mention of Nebraska. Sounds like homerism at its finest.

 

[HuskerT]

I could live with him picking Stanford, but if he picked USC I might never get over it.
