Year 1 expectations for Dylan?

[Danimal4NU]

Barring injury he will be the starter

I would hope anyone with a brain knows this.

 

[leodisflowers]

Can't be any worse than last year. So 6 wins is the floor.

 

[Baxter48]

Staying healthy everything else will fall into place like wins

 

[BTF69]

With the easy schedule, with experienced WR's, with a very good DL...If he puts up numbers close to what Amart did as a freshmen this will be a 10 win team.

Freshman All American

 

[salsa red]

If he can get AM's numbers as a true freshman with maybe 500 more passing yards, a few more td's, and half the rushing yards would be a good season.

We do play Ohio State and USC so I wouldn't say it's that easy.

 

[BTF69]

Yeah, that is true.

But NU will be favored in probably 10 games this year...if not favored then +3 at the most, not counting OSU and USC.

Very true and both are away.

I do think the last 4 games are not looking quite as daunting as originally thought. Particularly UCLA and Wisconsin @home are games I would not be surprised to see us favored in prior to the start of the season.

6 wins and this board will be out with pitchforks for Rhule and Co.

 

[redli]

Heisman or nothing

 

[HominidHusker]

If Rhule can’t win 7+ games with this roster, schedule, general resources, fanbase, and very importantly his salary…. then questioning his skills, decisions, and fitness for duty is surely warranted.

The trap every coach wants to set now is “I need 5 years… or we’re young.” Before NIL and transfer portal, that was more realistic. But now it’s just an excuse to not achieve results while collecting big dollars.

Honestly. Manage the game. Limit mistakes. Help the team to win the games that we should win.

In the past those 3 things have been nearly impossible for our QB's!

 

[Champs 70-71-94-95-97]

I am interested in seeing how he handles adversity. Does he get fired up? Does he just shrug his shoulders and hit the bench? Leadership and intangibles are key for me...

Yep, and see a wide open receiver or TE and throw said WR or TE the ball on target.

I agree a million percent

 

[61bigredfan]

I guess we have to hope the defense is the same, in that Other teams don’t Figure a way to break us down a bit after playing us ones and scouting some. Our QB play has to be better than it was last year. Love HH And won a few games with him, but Dylan has got to be better than that. So I guess I’m just thinking better quarterback play than last year and hopefully he doesn’t get hurt-At least significantly – all of them get dinged up some

That might be asking too much!

 

[scarletred]

If true but I doubt all of the 10 games, with the new B1G we no longer have this easy schedule people like to use..

 

[Ohio_husker]

I will be pleased if he beats a raccoon to death with a tire iron.

Go back to Waukegan Larry
