But I'm sure the people here know much better...

Oh damn.  Didn't expect that sarcasm.

People live and die with PFF way too much...average a$$ service. 

Can I ask why you don't like their service? 

 

[BigRedBuster]

He didn't recruit him Rouse chose to walk on.

What?

 

[Huskerfollower4life]

What?

Im joking  :laughpound I was having a little fun with it.  With the addition of Rouse im looking forward to seeing how our o-line performs against Minnesota and who is going to be the starters.

Piper was our overall highest-graded OL last year.

He is also the fastest of all our O linemen. I am friends with a local high school football coach who had to play Norfolk Catholic in the playoffs. He told me that Ethan P on defense was catching his running backs from behind. Piper would be the lineman you want for a pulling guard.

Over the last 16 years, PFF has built the world's most comprehensive football database, covering every player on every play of every game for the NFL, FBS and FCS. Their data and tools are trusted by all 32 NFL teams, 120 FBS teams, 29 FCS teams in addition to professional leagues such as the CFL, USFL & XFL. PFF's services are also used by TV networks, player agencies and video game companies, just to name a few.

I'm not trying to start a debate, but that's a sales quote, not a demonstration of validity or effectiveness.

Do people realize all they do is watch plays and give from -2 to +2 each play (based on their opinion)? It isn't that deep...

Sounds like NIL was a big factor.  We were not outbid this time.

Do we know what Rouse's PFF grade was this last season?

The article I read yesterday graded both his run and pass blocking in the low 70s. The overall grade was 71 or 72.

I don't know enough about PFF grades to know if that's NFL/All-American/1st Team All Conference or what. But I'm sure that would make him one of the better lineman on the team as far as PFF grades go.

I'm not expecting him to come in and be all American.  I'm hoping he's an upgrade from what we had.  It appears that he has a good chance of that.  I'll be ecstatic if he ends up all conference.

I just look at guys like Anthony and Williams that came in as transfers but really haven't contributed much.  Williams came from a lower level and the Big might have been too much for him.  Rouse seems to have played more at Stanford than Anthony did at OSU.  

So, I'm hopeful that Rouse contributes way more than these two transfers have.

I agree.  I thought Anthony would contribute more, even though he lost his starting position at okie st the year before.
