Countdown to 105

[itseasyas1-2-3]

Shortly I'm going to post the entire roster that will need to be trimmed to 105 by fall. I've eliminated all graduating seniors as well as Malachai since he's entering the portal. I'll include the incoming true freshmen in bold type who have signed for next year.

It's going to be alphabetical and their listed position but not going to mess with what class they are due to redshirting, etc.

When someone enters the transfer portal I'll denote it by moving their name to the right of the active list and indicate they entered. The number in ( ) will indicate how many total players have entered the portal.

When NU signs someone from the portal I'll place an "x" in front of their name.

I'll add an xx after a player's name if it's a player we would like to retain and not lose to the portal.

This list will become very fluid when the portal opens Wednesday, Dec. 4 through Jan. 1, 2025.
Non-grad students can enter beginning Dec. 9th through Jan. 1, 2025.

152 TOTAL (20) have entered the portal thus far. 9 on offense/11 on defense

You should keep this copy as an original and make a new copy just below mine to show the changes. Comparing both lists could be very interesting to some/many.

BTW…thanks for doing this!!

Thanks for the suggestion. What I might try to do initially for something this large is to keep this original roster but devise a way to actually remove a player from the actual roster. Something like this: Say Alvano enters the portal:

Current looks like this:
ALVANO PK
Change it to:
PORTAL.....ALVANO PK

It continues to retain the original roster but removes him from the active roster through the portal.

Did you skip over Carter Nelson to retain or are you hoping we lose him?

 

[TampaBaySkers]

I'll play with this later, I'm wrapped up on a different project for awhile. Thanks kong !!

Working on a list of which posters you’re gonna add or delete from ignore hopper? 🤣

 

[itseasyas1-2-3]

Did you skip over Carter Nelson to retain or are you hoping we lose him?

Total oversight. He is definitely one we want to keep. Corrected now. Thanks.

Possible I missed some. JMO but don't know about Teddy, Corc, and Ervin and exactly what they bring to the table considering their injury history and with Bullock how much he can contribute.

Any of the posters that feel other players are definitely worth keeping, don't be afraid to let me know and I'll put an xx by their name as well.

 

[itseasyas1-2-3]

Been busy adding a half dozen I_wa fans today.

On a positive note, I have opened up my Ignore Hopper and let a few (non-Iowa fans) out. LOL

 

[itseasyas1-2-3]

The starting number is 152, so lots of kids gonna need new places to play.

Seemed like a boat load when I was typing them however.

Couldn't believe how many NU kids I hadn't even heard of.

Thanks

There probably is a few more you include, but I think you start with the guys who have earned it, haven't been here yet, are young and haven't seen the field yet, or might be at a position of depth. Taking a quick 2 minute stab, I feel like you can really whittle the list down. Too busy to really analyze, but would be interesting to see how everyone's first cut shakes out as far as numbers go.

Because the list is so large I kinda went with the meat and potatoes approach, LOL.
No doubt there are some young guys on this list that I'm unfamiliar with that may be getting some things done in practice that the coaches really like, so we retain them.

As far as those like Corc, Teddy, Ervin and maybe even that TE Markway from LSU who showed up and we find he has a torn ACL? or something.

In the OL, kids like Lutovsky, Gottula, and Evans are not world beaters, but they've been durable and that counts for something. Can we do better? Sure, but they, along with Brix, Pyles, etc the other young kids is not a bad starting point.

Almost as important as anything is finding a really good long snapper and a punter a lot better than Koch. Hohl has been coming on as a place kicker and we all know how crappy our ST's were this year. I'd still like to see the coaches try out some of our big kids and see if there's a promising long snapper in the bunch. Won't do us any good if we pick up a quality, young long snapper and he gets injured.

Having a great, consistent long snapper this year was maybe the difference in being 10-2 or 9-3 versus 6-6.

 

[mgbreis]

Couldn't believe how many NU kids I hadn't even heard of.

What I been saying. I'm sure they're great kids, why are we wasting time repping this number of guys? 105 is a godsend for this program.

I'll keep an eye on as many as the University tells us about. Thanks.

What I been saying. I'm sure they're great kids, why are we wasting time repping this number of guys? 105 is a godsend for this program.

There comes a time when the kids just have to be realistic in their chances. With the 20 graduating seniors there were at least 152 kids, cause I'd have to deduct the 20 incoming freshmen from the 2024 list.

We have 7-8 TE's and how many other than Boerk, Lind, Fidone and Nelson are gonna play when it matters?

College baseball has a limit of 34 or less than 4 deep total (obviously heavy pitching). Basketball has a 15 man limit or only 3 deep. At 152 we're talking about 7 deep.

We have enough kids walking around who say they were "former Huskers" and were 5th string DT who never saw a meaningful snap in their entire career. Seems like 105 is plenty.

A lot of these kids can go to a smaller school if they choose, maybe get a lot of playing time, have fun, get a good education and then get on with their lives.

The smaller NCAA's and NAIA's have to be loving this. They are going to be getting some high quality players that should have been there all along. The days' of leaning on walkon's are over. For every diamond in the rough there are 50 players who are extra weight and should be somewhere else. It is what it is.

I just tagged this because I wanted to make a comment about the portal.

Some of the bigger issues with the portal are the heavyweights are looking for maybe 1-2-3 players that they feel they need to plug into the offense or defense to make a run at the playoffs/title next year.

So we wind up with OSU, Bama, GA, etc going after a few of the same guys that we want, and they are willing to outbid anyone to get that player. In our case, we may want or need 8-10 plug-in starters and if we get them it won't be cheap if they don't pan out.

The hiring of Dana might allow us to grab a coveted WR that feels this is the type of offense that will magnify his skils. Even if we miss the first portal next week, we may hit something big in the April portal due to staff defections, etc.

Losing Princewill, Shavers, and McGahee ain't no big deal though. Just ask leodisflowers.

Maybe I missed it, but when do they have to get down to 105 by? First practice of fall camp?

That I don't know, sorry. I checked the NCAA site, gibberish.

Thanks for doing this. It would be awesome to see this by position. Just in case you have more time on your hands.

Thanks, glad to do it. I think between now and the 9th and Jan 1, we're gonna get a lot more activity in the portal.

Would be nice if the names weren't all redlined out. Looks like 21 total so far.
