Fidone moving on
- Thread starter HBK4life
- Start date
I thought this might happen with the Holgo change. Won’t be the last to leave.
Good luck to him. He would have been a great one with better knees
Not surprising at all. Room is stacked. Need to recruit a freshman for the future though this cycle.
I think Ian Flynt and Ingwerson can play. Not sure of the status of that LSU transfer Mac Markway? Carter and HH.

How is the room “stacked”? Honest question. I don’t see a ton of talent there. See some decent players but nothing special. And now Nelson had hip surgery. Would be amazing if HH emerges as a star there. Curious who you think has potential
Seems like a great guy and a good teammate. Has a good build. But he looks like a baby giraffe, running out around out there. And he doesnt block well. He can probably be a superstar at a mid major conference.
I feel like we got a bunch of highly rated tight end recruit over the last couple years. Maybe I’m misremembering
With the 105 limit you can only have 4, maybe 5 guys at a position and we still have: Lindenmeyer, HH, Nelson, Markway, Flynt, Ingwerson. And Jones could end up there too.
It’s possible they nudged him out the door. He’s had trouble staying healthy and he was a liability in the run game.
Agreed after hearing the Nelson news
Lindemeyer and Haarberg
Thinner and thinner by the day at the pass catching positions
Hopefully no more injuries between now and the first game
Wish him the best, but I’m not surprised with Haarberg moving over and he seemed not as happy..
Those surgery repairs made him a step or two slower..

HH and Lindenmeyer are fine options already. Freshmen Ingwerson or Flynt could easily emerge. I’d still lean that Nelson ends up a TE and I don’t think the hip kills his career.
The “no pass catcher talent” makes absolutely no sense. It was better this year than last and we have upgraded the WR room again for next season. The best dude in that room eligible to return, is returning and we added more transfers and way better incoming freshman. WR room is by far the deepest on the team. I would expect more transfers out.

The transfer portal closed on December 28, but there are a some exceptions. One exception is that a player who participates in a bowl game or a playoff game has an additional five days to submit paperwork to enter the portal once their season comes to an end. So, Fidone had five days after the Pinstripe bowl to submit his paperwork to enter the transfer portal. Nebraska's compliance department then had 48 hours to submit his name into the transfer portal database. So, I think today was the last day for his name to go into the portal database. Another exception is that grad transfers have until the end of the spring portal window to submit their names into the portal.

K State has entered the chat 😆
Don’t forget about the LSU transfer Markway I suspect he will be a meaningful contributor
Sad. Not surprised. Being devastated by injuries must suck. Feel like it hurt his potential.
Best of luck.
Best of luck.
Good luck kid. I hate that you had your career derailed by injury. Could’ve been special.
Now, lets keep upgrading the rooms. No wiggle room anymore.
Obviously many factors at play here, but is this also an indicator that Satt could be moving on? Fidone was obviously here prior to Satt, but he was certainly Satt's guy.
I think Luke was razzing him. A follow-up post from Luke to TF said "Love you Bro." TF responded in kind.
Hard to tell if Satt loved Fidone or hated him. Tried to get Thomas the ball a lot but in the worst ways possible.
Our 4th string rb went to KSU, 2nd or 3rd string TE to A&M, 2nd string LB to FSU. He will have takers.
Ingwerson supposedly gave our first team defense fits on the scout team. He can play. We’re going to be fine at TE.
Keelan Smith was recruited as a TE as well.
Would need to bulk up some. Haarberg is a pretty interesting option. Not sure how big Ingwerson is now but early on there was talk about building him in to an OT. I expect him to play some this year.

I’m guessing the guys who were on the bench sitting behind him thought they were better. They were right
nobody will ever know what he could have done if he had knees
Sorry to see him go - but he was a guy I was always expecting to take over a game, but never really did.
Did he play? I'm leery of these stories when players are allowed 4 games plus the bowl game and still preserve their redshirt. At the same time, nothing would surprise me with how we manage players.
