Probably no different. He would had Mario as a position coachsometimes I wonder where we would be now if Joe would've worn red, I know it would not have been to his benefit but maybe he lifts us out of the dumpster fire and into respectablility.
dont remind me of that dungeon wizardProbably no different. He would had Mario as a position coach
Unfortunately he wouldn't have looked any better than Martinez with our worse than worse shit show OLines especially this last year.sometimes I wonder where we would be now if Joe would've worn red, I know it would not have been to his benefit but maybe he lifts us out of the dumpster fire and into respectablility.
Whens the last time we had a Power 5 QB prospect? Didnt the kid from Papio play for the Bears for a few years after he went to Idaho? Tavarius Bender played for K State but I believe he made a stop at IWCC first.a snippet for those who don't have Athletic access:
The 6-foot-3, 195-pound junior is speeding toward status as the most coveted high school quarterback out of Nebraska since Eric Crouch, the Heisman Trophy winner, 26 years ago.
this statement is true & insanely frustrating
worst O Line in the NFL, took a record amount of sacks, still ended up 2 minutes from a Super Bowl titleUnfortunately he wouldn't have looked any better than Martinez with our worse than worse shit show OLines especially this last year.
This excerpt doesn't really place all the blame on the coaching staff. If he wanted to go to Nebraska wouldn't he attend Nebraska's Junior Day instead of taking an unofficial visit to Kansas?...Flores has not talked recently with the Huskers, who took a pledge in February from Massachusetts QB William Watson III.
The Gretna quarterback turned down an invite to a Nebraska Junior Day this month to take an unofficial visit to Kansas.
just the kind of exemplary work we've come to expect from North Stadium!

If the coaching staff invites a kid and he goes on an unofficial visit (which you can do almost any other time) to Kansas instead of my scheduled Junior Day, then maybe they are the ones who don't feel wanted. Either way it doesn't really matter to me and your mind is already made up so it's not really worth arguing about.he went where he felt he was wanted, which is clearly not here. that is entirely on the staff.
It’s still hard for me to believe that SF had zero interest in Flores…That isn’t like SF turning down the states top high school QB in years when he clearly has Division one potential.. ..he went where he felt he was wanted, which is clearly not here. that is entirely on the staff.
This is about the only scenario I would accept as a reasonably okay excuse.Maybe Flores sees that NU is 100% not the place he wants to be and told Scott Frost. Why would NU offer?
You would have thought after the state title game SF would have been impressed to at least make contact and show interest.. This is the part that is a the head scratcher…I’m pretty sure the (media) record over past couple years shows that Flores really wanted Nebraska to look at him, but we were very late to the party to even communicate with him…. not offer, simply communicate with a clear local talent. That’s called “sleeping at the wheel.”
Then we finally made contact, wanted to keep evaluating him, he visited a few times, but then we cooled and cut off that communication.
Shortly after, he wins the State Championship and P5 offers start rolling in, and we look silly for basically shunning him from the start.
While I prefer we offer him, I won’t argue coaches may have their reasons.
However, my trust in our coaches’ assessments has been wavering.
I understand that but Whipple was at Pitt at the time… Why didn’t SF make a pitch after that game?They basically said on 1620 that Frost has allowed Whipple to hand pick his QBs. Whipple offered the kid he has a close relationship with back east and flirting with Flores at this point could cause problems.
Very true, but even the previous year as a sophomore he was showcasing skills that were drawing attention from everyone but our staff.You would have thought after the state title game SF would have been impressed to at least make contact and show interest.. This is the part that is a the head scratcher…
What’s interesting to me is that Whipple had a relationship with the kid since the 6th grade, while we failed to notice one of the most talented local QBs until he was a junior in HS, then seemingly barely paid any mind.They basically said on 1620 that Frost has allowed Whipple to hand pick his QBs. Whipple offered the kid he has a close relationship with back east and flirting with Flores at this point could cause problems.
Orgeron. Kelly wasn't at LSU showing his sweet moves yet.I mean they are very similar. Now if Flores signs with The OSU, then sits for a few years and decides to transfer. Then we ignore his overtures. And he ends up at LSU. From there he ends up having a decent year, but in his second year lights it up and brings Brian Kelly a natty.
Then he gets drafted to the Bengals. Gets hut his first year, but recovers and has an outstanding second year. And ends up taking the Bengals to the SB.
I mean, really they are very similar. Just a few things fall your way and you will have a great comparison.
The most piss poor excuse I could’ve ever imagined.They basically said on 1620 that Frost has allowed Whipple to hand pick his QBs. Whipple offered the kid he has a close relationship with back east and flirting with Flores at this point could cause problems.
I guarantee you the family has paid attention to the treatment received from Nebraska.The most piss poor excuse I could’ve ever imagined.
Laughable, especially when the kid’s family is within broadcast range.
If I was Flores, I would tell frost to F off, too. @HominidHusker is right - this is gross negligence.
So incredibly disappointing.

Well there is one place if he goes there I’d be reluctant to wish him well.I hope Zane is extremely successful wherever he winds up!
Should the OC who’s job is on the line not pick which QB to recruit?The most piss poor excuse I could’ve ever imagined.

Every time we think this program can’t sink any further in the category of respect…

A great QB would’ve taken last years squad to a bowl. Line wasn’t good, but we had the most unclutch QB in Nebraska history under center.Unfortunately he wouldn't have looked any better than Martinez with our worse than worse shit show OLines especially this last year.

Ha, not me. I'm biased because he's a relative of mine.Well there is one place if he goes there I’d be reluctant to wish him well.
