Dowdell to the portal

It is more that this is what CFB should have looked like for years. Think how many ****ing college players were just stuck at a school with no chance to play with almost no chance to leave. All because when they were 17/18 they picked a certain school. That is crazy when you really think about it.
Almost no chance to leave? How’s that?
 
I get what he’s thinking. He has little chance of making real money in the NFL… got get it while he can. Those TD #s look enticing to some collective

College football is dying with the portal. I have been a big CF fan. But, this year I skipped 2-3 husker games on TV and I have dropped the pay board on this site. I have no interest in our "bowl game" or many other bowl games for that matter. The shifting of talent is hard to keep on and frankly uninteresting. It is clear Nebraska will never "back" because any success will be met with defection. The old days are clearly over. Younger folks may adjust but the allure is wearing thin for me.
 
So the question is he wanting to move on or is he just wanting to get paid more to stay?

I thought he ran a lot better once Holgorsen took over. I'm not happy to see him go. In the past you'd plan on a guy like this coming back and taking his game to another level. I'm in the minority because I don't blame anyone for this environment, but it kinda sucks.

Tim Beck said it best, you're not building a program, you're just trying to build a team each season. P4 teams have it better than a school like Coastal, but a lot of it still applies.

It must be kind of crazy with these 15 bowl practices. Players dropping off the team randomly, then one or two surprisingly coming back. Coaches here, then not here, then brand new voices in the room.

It wasn’t like this the last time we were in a bowl game.

Thought he had vision issues but DD was a contributor. Would fit in nice with EJ and another back with some quicks. I’m not celebrating this one.

What plays with this kid ever seemed like it was his individual talent? His highlights were always great blocking and lanes or scheme by the OC. He was struggling when he got here to grasp the culture and especially the playbook. If he was even a true prospect....uncle Phil would have kept him in Eugene.

I'm all for paying Emmet but he can find a new home in the market. And let's take whatever we spent on him and parlay it towards an OT.
