Did he play after he got his usual false start? I know he’s a terrible blocker maybe that’s why we saw a lot of the other two tight ends

People are pouncing on him. He is a decent blocker and receiver IMO. Certainly not the reason we have lost five games. The hate is going to push him into the portal.
I don’t think he did. And we were great without him… that says something
I do love this “accountability” thing… it works wonders

If I were a coach I would sit him down and tell him the knee brace needs to come off. It hinders his ability to do his job and if he has any aspirations to make it to the next level it needs to go.
Decent blocker? He’s wiffed on more than Aaron Judge in the World Series I like the kid but it seems that if he’s not the go to guy he checks out
when you get passed by a walk on, maybe he should
Does Wayne State have access to the portal? I’m Fidones biggest critic, his injuries suck and are unfortunate but he is/has not been good here. 87 is a much better TE going forward
He was an NFL TE until the injuries, it sucks for the kid. He I just physically incapable of things he used to do.
Agree, I really feel bad for the young man. And he could have gone anywhere coming out of high school and he chose the Huskers. Injuries suck. And it’s obvious injuries have completely changed what he’s capable of doing. It’s painful watching him try to move laterally.
If he is part of game plan this week needs to only be multiple TE set pass play. No more screens or asking him to block - he can’t do it.
He’s been a favorite of the head coach. Personally I liked seeing Lindenmeyer and Boerkircher out there the blocking was great yesterday. Fidone didn’t have a catch. If he leaves I would think it would be because of his production/opportunities in addition to the ‘hate’. Fidone has mentioned social media posts at least a couple times and that seems to hold sway over him a bit too much IMO.
hopefully things work out well for him how ever it goes
No, his level of play will push him in the portal. It’s been a very long road for him with the devastating knee injuries. Others are now a better option than him. I don’t think he needs to leave, we still have use for him but being the featured TE those days are over.
I don't see any "hate." We love the kid. He's worked his ass off to get back after two knees. His limitations due to his injuries are obvious. Reminds me of Matt Herian as a senior. Great kid, great leadership. Physically limited by a freak injury, and other athletes passed him up. Respect to the young man, and this is where it is.
Either would be the appropriate next stop for him if he transfers
I’m curious what happened also. Maybe it is a by committee thing and they just went with the hot hands? The other TEs looked good out there!
I would guess he will be part of the number crunch getting to 105. Wished we could have seen him healthy with 2 good knees...I truly feel bad for the young man and his injury issues!
It does not appear his camp is happy.
Jesus lady…
Please hit the portal with a mom like that. We don’t need crybabies
Now that everyone gets paid,
Produce or GTFO

Let’s not blame him for his parents. As far as I know, he has always bled Husker red, even through 2 major knee surgeries. His mom didn’t follow the 24 hour rule of letting emotions die down after a game before saying anything about playing time. People make mistakes. She watched her son suffer physically and emotionally for 4 years. Let’s show a little compassion here people..
Frankly, I don’t care about her feelings or whatever. He hasn’t been anything special. He did have some injuries and that’s a shame, but is what it is. His blocking was mediocre, and really kinda shitty based on his size and supposed athleticism
I really don’t care if he leaves, especially with our new TEs coming in.
If he goes into the portal it will be for $$$ and playing time not social media.
Whatever he is, he's slow a foot and moves like your average 6'5" guy, which is slow and lumbering. He doesn't move like a stud athlete 6'5" TE.
Since I never saw him pre injury, I'm guessing it's the actual injuries still lingering or still can't get over them mentally.
Is this a scam? I looked at her in X and the account I found has no posts.
Yeah. He had that boneheaded false start (that ended up killing the drive) and made a gesture like he didn’t GAF. Glad something like that earns the bench. And then other guys seemed to play well.
