Boom!!!! Freaking burner
Awesome! As stated, Rhule focuses on speed.
I like that he is getting back into Texas.

Gotta love dual sport athletes. He is blazing fast and seems to have great hands too in his highlights.
Also a 20.97 200M.
For reference, the Nebraska state records are 10.41 in the 100M and 21.31 in the 200M (both Kenzo Cotton).
I like speed!
And we just needed some good news, so this is welcome.
Time to rebuild a roster.

I'll be fascinated in general to see how this recruiting approach turns out as it's dramatically different than anything Nebraska's done since I began following recruiting in the early 2000s. Rhule and his staff must be really confident in their ability to develop (what I assume, given his offer list) raw football players with insane measurables. Regardless, welcome to anyone who wants to get aboard and get this program back upwards.
He was way ahead of the competition:O
I see many 60 plus TD catches in his future playing against the stiffs in the BIG west division
Rhule has the track record. I spent time reading about his story at Baylor, and he focuses on speed and is confident in his ability to build and develop. I am excited for this.
Hearing gonna be some big hitters this weekend for OL and DL. Makes sense to go after some HS project players also less likely they leave if they are not on the 3 deep after year 1.
Iowa and the slow white DB's are gonna get abused!! Bunch of Trey Palmer's coming at ya!! GBR!!
Rhule apparently starts his scouting at the state track and field championships.
His 100 and 200 times would have gotten a spot in the B1G outdoor meet. Not elite track speed, but definitely D1 level track speed. His times would have been the fastest on NU's team in 2022.
He monitors verifiable sources of athletic measurables. There are some other highly successful programs who use a similar approach.
No stars? Thats gonna go over well here with the 5 start PrimeTime crowd 🙄
Rhule wants guys that have the athleticism and things you can't teach. He can teach them football.
Rhule's type of recruit. Going after Jaylen Lloyd from Omaha for the same reasons.
This kid is faster than heck.
The track coaches will lower his time by .1/.2 or more, just by cleaning up his mechanics. He really stands to lower his 200 times.
He has that long stride, somewhat like Carl Lewis although, understandably, not nearly as fluid.
This kid has the potential to run past a whole lotta BIG DBs.
As an NU fan, I'll gladly take another half dozen like him.
Hes likey a track first football second type of athlete in high school. Less camp attendance, etc.
Heck I would be too if I were that fast.
I can see why. As naturally fast as he is, the track coaches will clean up a couple of little things that will contribute to lowering his speed.
He has the potential to be a monster in the 200 if he knows how or can be taught how to run the turn correctly.
On the football field, very few DBs are going to be able to run with this kid.
1) First off, wait. I think more offers will come.
2) This is what Rhule does. I trust him.
It’s a transition coaching year with a ton of decoms @ WR. This is the type of guy a coach should recruit with this little time. It’s a “have nothing to lose, but we might hit gold” way of thought
Recruit ha Very good speed & Actually good size too. Obviously is concerning the lack of offers.But If it doesn’t turn in to a football player, then hopefully he can move to our track team or transfer Pairie view A&M.
It’s like what do we really expect at this point? We aren’t going to land a high ranked class.
Hopefully Rhule finds more Cam Taylor Brit, Ozigbo, Dennard, & Brandon Jacksons types
And less Justin McGriff, Lavan Alston,Mason Wald, and Shamus McKoy types
