You don’t go to the portal looking for potential that you can develop. You go to get immediate production, proven production. Seems so fvcking simple, yet so many coaches (ours included) go after projects. Like that giant vape shop bandit TE from Florida that never did jack shit at the college level. And that fat lazy ass 5* RB from USC that never did jack squat. Then there was the 5* WR from OSU that was more worthless than doge coin on busted hard drive. Who also didn’t do a damn thing at OSU. I know there’s more too, those were just off the top of my head.

Oh yeah, then there’s Trey Palmer and Somare Toure’ (sp?) who both produced at their former schools and… HOLY MONKEY NUTS ON A BARBECUED BISCUIT!!! They were actually good players.

The TE from Georgia/LSU was a starter at LSU and was freshman All-SEC. He was a project but worth it IMO. You take a chance on talent like that.

Agree that taking 4 or 5 star career backups is a failed strategy. I still think FCS is where a couple transfers should come from every year. We have a bunch of really good FCS programs within our radius. Scout them. Raid them.

Takes the pressure off coaches to play kids who were promised $. Best and most productive players play, seems like a novel practice

What if a hot shot recruit thinks they should be playing more? Like a Carter Nelson for us. He sits on the bench and makes a fraction of what he can get at another school? I wonder how that works.

especially for a program that supposedly rakes in tons of B1G money and is given as our reason for being in this conference.

You know, the whole thing has become something that it didn't use to be. It's no longer organic, it's become engineered, from coaching, to recruiting, to referees, to playoffs, it's becoming one big 'gamified' turd. And some day, the masses of eyeballs might look at something else.

we won alot more running the ball, did'nt need to compete with everyone for every single player...like 3 guys on the 95 pipeline was within 50 miles of Lincoln...but someone decided we needed to go pass happy..is what it is..

Good luck with that. Good coaches know their worth. As long as people are paying big bucks and longer contracts no way you get an established good coach to settle for less

Cignetti and Campbell (and several others) weren't in a position to demand a King's ransom when they were hired. Even though they could make more money somewhere else I bet they stay at their schools and build a legacy. The real thing schools need to focus on is getting a quality athletic director who can identify a diamond in the rough. The truth is most schools haven't demanded excellence from ADs because the money has been exploding for the last 50 yrs.
That's changing (in terms of excess relative to need) and their might be some accountability coming to athletic departments across the country. Emphasis on "might be". 80 years of fluoridation has lowered the avg IQ below Chris Kattan.
