Some coaching staffs (Bill Snyder's comes to mind) seem to have the knack for finding outstanding high school prospects that have been overlooked by all the big programs. Rhule seems to fall into that category. People have done a lot of griping about the current staff, but Rhule has built a staff with connections seemingly everywhere, particularly Texas Florida, and the Northeast. It's not a coincidence his staff is packed with recruiting coordinators (Ed Foley, Evan Cooper, EJ Barthel, and Tony White).
Frankly, some of the most exiting film I've seen comes from low rated prospects Rhule is targeting. I'm convinced the Husker are now playing "MoneyBall."
