QB Darius Wade [Boston College Commit]

[caveman99]

With the smaller class, I don't see us taking two QBs. I wouldn't be surprised if we didn't accept a commitment from Wade or Darlington till the summer.

We need 2 in this class. Only 2 on scholly after this year. I think they look at one as a QB only and maybe the 2nd is someone like a Turner who could move.

I haven't watched any of Wade's film...how does he compare as a QB prospect to Armstrong & Stanton?

 

[swmohusker]

He has great touch on his passes. Usually hitting wr in stride for maximum yac yards. Doesn't have the velocity of Armstrong and Stanton. He is mobile and can avoid the pass rush but not as good a runner as Stanton and Armstrong. Reminds me a little of Russell Wilson.

 

[EZ-E]

Not so much worried about the number of QBs on scolly as I am the log jam that we are creating at the position. I would agree with taking an athlete that could potentially play QB though.

Probably that rivals and 247 have conflicting reports

Good point. My bet, probably before NSD. : )

A left handed/dual threat QB?

Are you thinking David Humm but with the ability to tuck it and run?

 

[Danny Bateman]

I think he was thinking more along the lines of a one Mr. Vick...

 

[Stumpy1]

I like this kids film. He has that smooth scrambling ability and looks like he can throw pretty decent on the run. I would still take Zach over him but both if we could.

I love this Darius Wade quarterback for Nebraska! He -- in my humble opinion -- is just what the doctor ordered for NU. Exciting, explosive mobile QB that can return Nebraska to its glory days of Turner Gill, Steve Taylor, Tommie Frazier, Mickey Joseph, Eric Crouch, Scott Frost, and Jammal Lord! He's a runner and a passer. He'll be able to compete with Ohio State's Braxton Miller when the game is in "crunch time."

I love this situation for Nebraska! Get those 350 pound offensive linemen pounding and pushing---and Wade will have the option of rushing for yards or passing down field as he shows on high school film footage off YouTube.com. I hope the Delaware athlete signs with Nebraska tomorrow! This is the very news I have been waiting on as a Georgian for Nebraska! He's in the mold of a Dr. Tom Osborne quarterback!

You're talking a return to the glory days before he has played his senior season of high school...
