SIGNED - FB Ben Miles

[Mavric]

No favorites. Still finding out about more schools.

In no hurry to make a decision. Looking to camp at several schools this summer but doesn't know where yet.

Is Jano getting drafted the nail in the coffin in this one? I think it might be. Can't wait!!!!

I don't get the thinking of this logic. It's not meant to be offensive to you. But I just don't understand it.

Man, if I'm leaning towards a school and I play the non-sexy FB position.... Then that school I'm leaning towards goes and gets their FB drafted? Man, I'd be jacked.

Remember when Suh being a Heisman finalist and the #2 pick in the draft was supposed to open the flood gates for DT's to commit here?Or Lavonte David with LB's?

I just don't think it has the weight people think it does.

But I hope you are right.

That was also under you know who. I think this staff will take advantage of an opportunity like having a FB drafted.

They should take advantage of it. Milk it for all they can. I just don't buy that it makes THAT much difference to the player being recruited. Especially at a position like FB.

You nailed it! Just used the wrong word. Everything you are right about except for when you wrote "ESPECIALLY."

Your last sentence should be EXCEPT at a position like FB.

I like my post just the way it was written.
And again, I hope he commits here. I just don't think a player getting drafted in the 6th round because of his special teams resume pulls the weight people think it does.

And that's not intended to be a knock on Andy. It's pretty amazing what he did in one year.

I think the point was that perhaps at the FB position, it would be even more of a positive factor in making a college choice having had several players taken in the draft (something that rarely happens perio). When so many schools no longer even have the position, being one of if not the very best place for FBs is an attractive advantage.
Also, I would say Andy did what he did over more than one year, just got to show it off for us fans last year. His great atheticism is what got him drafted, not just a handful of runs.

Andy Janovich would not have sniffed the combine had it not been for last season. That is the plain and simple truth.
And before we talk about "the best place" for FB's to play, just know that LSU has had 2 drafted in recent years as well.

Yeah, I've changed my stance now that husker84law semi agreed with my previous one.

Now you're recruiting for LSU? LOL You people got real issues. Just can't be reasonable on anything? What the heck ? If the kid was going to LSU (where his father is the coach and near his house presumably), I don't think we'd be hearing anything about him going elsewhere. Some fathers don't WANT to coach their own sons - presumably because the relationship confuses the coach/player one. I feel it is quite a positive statement for our program that a successful coach at a very successful national caliber program views Nebraska highly enough to have his son consider us. Again, I just don't get all the negativity.

The "some coaches don't want to coach their sons" argument would have some steam if he didn't have an offer from LSU. Just saying.

Some sons don't want to play for their father. Better?

 

[Huskinator]

Yes. I'll agree to that but he's smart....his father is always on the hot seat. I'd hate to be a miles if his dad leaves

You have to think that LSU getting a 3 star FB in Tory Carter helps our chances here at least a little bit.

Only way they would take 2 FB's in one class is if one of them were a coaches son.

Wait...

Yeah... I guess I didn't necessarily mean helps our chances as in swaying his decision - but could it be an indication that his kid might not be sold on playing for pops?

I was just being a smartass. I actually agree, them already getting a FB definitely helps our chances getting him. I have a feeling he isn't super keen on playing for his Dad.

Not visiting this summer but planning to take an OV this fall.

Not going to commit until after he's taken some visits.
