are we ignoring a local qb?

We are in an age where a lot of kids are going to have to prove themselves at a lesser program before they get offers from P4 schools. You aren't going to see many 3 stars recruited by the big boys. They will go for the high 4 & 5 stars and then pouch talent from the lower divisions.

This whole system sucks.

If the Diego Pavia lawsuit holds and becomes an example others follow, I could see a lot of players taking the Juco route.

That's certainly possible. But I like the idea of recruiting local kids. And time has proven that the good local kids are very good prospects and hopefully less likely to leave early. And I'm not talking about good college players, several of these guys are in the NFL. It's been disappointing to see local kids succeed elsewhere and higher ranked/less talented NU recruits flop.

If you’re talking about Thomalla, maybe.

He’s better than Kaelin.
Yes, and he's more mobile. He's also better than Warren. He's accurate and has a strong arm and can make all the throws. A guy who throws for over 3600 yds. who has the measurables and barely gets any ink. He just recently received an offer. Head scratching stuff!
 
It’s a catch 22 for Nebraska coaching staff the need to recruit the local talent but here lately look at all the busts from in state players! Is cam jurgens the last in state player to succeed and he struggled his first couple seasons
