Talked to my Iowa buddy today. McNamara is hurt again. Their lardo qb went to the portal, or buffet. I can’t remember what he said.
Either way, their room is in shambles
Dylan Raiola hype train
- Thread starter HBK4life
- Start date
Either way, their room is in shambles
And they just lost their top punter in the draft!!😰
For iowa fans, that’s like losing your job, wife and dog on the same day…
JK! 😜 iowa fans don’t have jobs or wives.
Didn't watch the full spring game, only the highlights.
I'm trying my best to stay off the Koolaid, the batch brewed during the Frost years made it hard to consume again
That said, it is pretty unreal watching Raiola. There's an "it" factor present that you can't quantify, but you can see it.
It has been 2 tough decades, we deserve this and I have really good feelings about the direction Husker football is headed

Raiola will be our starter from game one. Bank on it. Kaelin will redshirt. HH? A backup QB who I hope never sees the field. I am not buying the off season hype about how improved he is. His throwing mechanics still seemed the same to me. Last year he was a turnover machine. So as far as I am concerned he is a liability until he proves otherwise. We will ride Raiola to a very good season so long as he stays healthy.
Adrian seemed to get worse as time went on while at Nebraska. Clearly a lot of that was coaching.
They didn’t make him make tough decisions when throwing. Nebraska didn’t play to players strengths under Frost at all.
He looked good for a Spring game. He is a Freshman. Mistakes are coming you know that 100%. He telegraphed some passes he will not get away with in the BIG 10.
Still the best guy we have had in a very very long time. Just needs some real game time and experience.
Considering the current state of the program, DR is most important recruit in Husker history. Might sound like hyperbole, but it isn’t.
Frost and his staff f’d up so many guys and their potential. Just look at the Husker draft classes over the last several years. Abysmal.
Agreed. I hate the Chiefs but if there is no doubt Mahomes sets the bar for QB play in the league. If Dylan wants to model his game after any current (or former) QB Mahomes is an excellent choice.
Don’t you get BTN where you live it’s been on twice yesterday.
Give you a heads up it’s on again at 5:00 today..
I don’t remember him playing in the spring game as true Freshman like Dylan did..
When he announced he was coming here - I thought he would be a program turning recruit not only for his talent but the talent who would come here because of him. Now we just need to win and this momentum will pick up quickly.
Rhule does an outstanding job of selling our program, he’s great with media to keep exposure high. It appears we have a talented group and our lines are finally coming of age.
We win 7-8+ games this year and potentially knock off someone we shouldn’t, we will be back on track going into Rhule’s 3rd year.
Just gotta win to wrap it all up. Our schedule sets up nearly perfectly for a freshman qb to get his sea legs. Go time!!!!
Agree 100%. Have to capitalize on all levels. Winning, recruiting, player retention, NIL donations.
And now we have as good as facility’s with anyone in the country..
Yep. The 2024 program must look different, feel different and the results different most of all.
Sounds like the best from every recruits interview. Not just because of all the fancy new toys but how everything is centralized. Very convenient for the players and coaches.
V-Doub this is incorrect, they do have wives, if their parents produced a female child as well. If they are lucky and their parents have conceived multiple females, they have taken them all for a test drive and selected the best to be their bride.
Only if NFL rules change. Have to be 3 years removed from high school.
Yup. Have to let their bodies develop before getting to play with the big boys in the NFL. It's not the pussy NBA.
This is exactly why the spring game is so important for us. Every recruit has to be thinking if they come here they are playing with a phenom and a team on the rise.
I want to see HH play a lot this year in the second half when we are up by four TDs. That would be awesome.
Listening to Rhule, the staff is going to zero in on the things each skill player does well. Dowdell hadn't been impressing much in spring ball, but then showed some pop during the spring game. Raiola appears to be able to get the ball the a variety of places on the field. For example, it blocked well, Bonner could a handful taking short passes out of the flat. We didn't see Rahmir in spring, but Rhule has liked what he can do since becoming HC and he to can be productive in the short throw game. Raiola gives the offense a much better chance to be productive in all areas of the playbook.
I am not hype train here I am talking fact. That two point conversion pass that he threw to A Bullock only a handful at best QBs in college right know could throw that pass.
I had to do a double take on that pass. I couldn't believe he fit it in that window. Crazy.
not many can make that throw while firmly planted. He was actually falling back from the throw and made that pinpoint throw.
