Coach Rhule is very savvy. I think he'll be as ruthless as Deion and his, "jump in the portal" rhetoric. The big difference is, he's going to kill you with kindness. He'll observe, take it all in, and cut you with a knife. If you aren't willing to compete. Deion is going to have problems. He's going to get dudes, but the buy in is going to be 50-50.
Late night JMO

Nebraska has brought in one of the best transfer portal hauls in the country and jumped from outside the top 60 in the Class of 2023 recruiting rankings and into the top 25.

One of the driving forces in that effort? In-staff competition among the program’s new leaders.

Arlington Martin (Texas) 2023 TE Ismael Smith Flores has committed to Nebraska.

Smith Flores is a Hawkeyes legacy recruit whose parents both graduated from Iowa. His father, Leroy Smith, was an All-American who still holds the Big Ten single-season sacks record and is in the Iowa Athletics Hall of Fame. His godfather, Danan Hughes, is still third on Iowa’s all-time receiving yards list and tied for second for career reception TDs.

Still, the Huskers landed him behind an effort led by TE coach Bob Wager, who was Smith Flores’ head coach at Arlington Martin.

Hope she heals up quick. Very tragic.

Heck YES!!!

Assuming this is a reality, who on the roster can man the FB position? Snodgrass has been mentioned on the board. Tagola is a big boy at TE.

Back to the Pats as OC .

Fred Hoiberg met with the media today to talk about Wednesday's home matchup with Northwestern.

Topics discussed:
>> The team dealing with its third season-ending injury
>> A Ramel Lloyd Jr. update
>> Who's the third ball handler behind Sam Griesel and Jamarques Lawrence?
>> The Wildcats' defense ranks No. 15 in the country
>> “(Boo) Buie is one of the best individual isolation players in our league.”

The latest Nebraska commit Demitrius Bell gave me some insight into why he picked Nebraska. He likes the plan laid out for him and like Garret McGuire. Hit the link...

After spending one season at UNK in 2022, where he redshirted, Trevor Ruth is transferring to Nebraska. Per @Nate Clouse, the 6-foot, 230-pound Ruth is going to walk on as a fullback. Trevor's two older brothers, Corbin and Connor, were walk-ons in the past.

Dak thread got me thinking about the GIants impending QB decision and secondarily, the RB decision. It's eerily similar to the Cowboys a few years ago. We all know that Dak and Zeke got paid and it is now costing the Cowboys dearly since they no longer can afford the roster they had when those two were thriving. Are the Giants going to make the same mistake?

-Do you overpay a mediocre QB and hope he gets better and your team keeps ascending on this same trajectory?

-Do you pay your stud RB top money, having no idea how long his prime will last?

-Or do you let them walk believing you can get similar production (or even better QB play) for much less money, allowing you to hopefully stock up an already pretty good roster?

These are the decisions that make or break franchises for 5-10 years at time. If it's me, I'm taking the 3rd option. I'm not paying a QB franchise money after throwing 15 TD's in 18 games. There are several free agents, especially this year that could replace or exceed what DJ did for the Giants. Also, I'm firmly a believer in not paying RB's top dollar. There are too many good productive RB's out there you can get without overpaying for them. Other roster spots are always a much higher priority IMO. Gonna be very interesting to see what they do.

Out of the current commits/signees (non-transfer players) who do you think sees playing time and makes a good contribution?
