Buckley in the portal
- Thread starter headcard
- Start date
A guy the staff liked, but seemed not to fit anywhere. The move to Oline was a sign he’d been overrecruited on the Dline. Wonder if he moves back to Dline at his new spot.
He’s been recruited over. Hope he finds a good spot.
Seems Rhule has done well to keep attrition as proper as can be.
The one that I’ll wonder about is Eric Fields.
What Rhule is doing is impressive.
The modern “tryouts” where you get your chance, but only the best stick around is going to help the Huskers. Not losing many/any of your top players is best case scenario.

He was emergency depth and has been passed by younger players. Probably a good move for him if he wants to play.
Good for him if he gets a B1G degree. MSU lost a bunch of guys. He’ll probably play for them.
Yup and I'll actually root for him to do well until they play us out course lol.
Holla
Ya, and it is about 70 miles from home as well
If a player leaves, I think it's a good look for us when they transfer to another P5 school. Shows that our depth & talent may be pretty decent.
Really, your not informed, Ruquan Buckley 6-5 300 Junior was switch from Defensive line to offensive guard..
*You're
Also not the point. Dude was a non contributor who couldn't even figure out what position he could play
Thall was correct. Buckley has never done anything at NU. I think he could have potentially been a good lineman, but he made the decision. I wish him luck at MSU, but doesn't affect anything at NU.
It just says he was not going to get playing time. Now if he starts there and has an impact I agree.
We have more depth than we have had in a very long time. Both lines but more on Offense than defense.
Sure, but as of now, seeing a guy transferring to a P5 school says something better than that same guy transferring to some G5 school.
Obviously not always (McCaffrey at Rice and Sims at ASU), but generally speaking.
Until they play it means zero. Look at the guys we have taken from Alabama, Florida etc.
Good for you for not forming an opinion before you see anything. Even on any high school recruit anyone ever gets because "until they play"....
My original post didn't say it was a sure-fire good look. Just that the initial perception can be a good look (but obviously not for you, which is fine).
I get what you are saying and I respect that. I am just to the point of play or shut up. Win or shut up.
Not you the entire program and players. We have been making excuses for WAY too long. I do feel we are headed in the right direction and made some big strides. Time to prove it.
