You clearly have some personal connection to the kid, the HS or something because you are way too up in arms about this.. You keep bringing up the state title and Harsh carrying the team. That’s great! He’s a big kid that plays tough. With his size he has the ability to use that to his advantage in Nebraska class B which explains the solid running numbers. He is not a QB especially at the college level, I don’t care what his coaches say. He didn’t do anything overly impressive on the defensive side of the ball either. He has fight and size and moderate athleticism. (Just because he had a monster punt doesn’t make him a freak athlete) 

I hope he does well at Wyoming. I hope he proves me and all the others wrong. Maybe he’s a late bloomer. Maybe we can just let this topic die because he’s not coming to Nebraska (by his choice), not some Danny Woodhead (true miss) and he is NOT the next Jim Thorpe....
 

PS - you can be mad at past staffs for their walk on and recruitment of Nebraska but you’re f#&%ing off your rocker if you think Frost and this staff aren’t doing an incredible job at working the state for scholly and walk on kids.

Thanks for the entertainment, back to our regularly scheduled recruiting program...

I do not have any connection to this kid other than just the fact that we watched him in the Class B final and he is a hell of an athlete.  So for the fourth time, what miffed me was Nebraska should especially be targeting good in state kids like him.  I don't think anyone reached out like Craig Bohl did to this kid.  When you are a lets face it struggling program like Nebraska is now, if you are bleeding even a few good kids from your own state it is too many.

The apathy wreaks of incompetence frankly.  That kid showed everything you want on the field there in Memorial and they let him walk.  I just dont understand it.  It doesn't bode well for these coaches and sends a bad message.  

Clearly the kid is a beast athlete.  6'2 230 lbs, accounted for all his teams scores against Skutt, coming out of western Nebraska.  Multiple highlight reel runs, decent passer. I don't know his grades, could be good, could be bad, I just know what I saw on the field, the kid can definitely play.  Nebraska needs to build these in-state kids.  The difference between a kid that can do it and one that doesn't is often times the expectation level of his coach.

And he showed it there, on that field.

Dont get me wrong, I am not sitting here mad, take a chill, just dismayed.

this is just entertainment for me.  Now if a piece of my peanut butter granola bar broke off and fell in the trash....then I would be pissed.

What do you expect his coach to say?  "He sucks as a passer so we run it all the time?"

He was 2-11 for 22 yards in the state championship game when they needed it the most.  I'll take what actually happens on the field over whatever sunshine the coach wants to pump.

Also, when you have to resort to putting a bunch of words in other people's mouths, it probably means your argument isn't very strong.

We did offer him something.  He had a walk-on offer here.  He chose Wyoming (cue the "well, they didn't *really* want him argument).

And that is worth something, you are correct.

Neither.  I am the guy who was miffed that NU let one of their best prep athletes just walk.  But I should not be surprised.  

BTW would you be willing to give me a penny a day up until the next time we see a high school kid come into Memorial and punt the ball 82 yds?

(Under duress, in his own end zone)

I mean if he just some JUCO level kid, that wouldn't be very long right?

I have not seen this punt but guessing it didnt carry 60/70 yards and then roll out - probably got a big bounce and roll which has nothing to do with athleticism (plus nobody gets a scholarship because of won play)

 
Can someone explain to me the argument here??

OP do you feel he should have gotten a scholarship to play at Nebraska? We gave him a chance to walk-on in which he ended up doing that at Wyoming instead.

Tress Way only averaged 48.  And that is with NFL level coverage.  

It wasn't one punt....it was one helluva punt.

He will punt and throw allow over the great state of Wyoming

they did pass that is for sure.  Probably for the best for Harsh honestly.

So, now you’re a Wyoming fan because of Harsh?

look, I hope the kid is the next Jay Novacek ( different position but same situation). But, Nebraska has a good class going and the staff is recruiting well while recruiting more Nebraska kids.

Name one prep QB who made the finals in Nebraska last year who was better than Harsh.  One.
