According to the OWH, he has a commitment party scheduled for Wednesday from 7 - 9 PM Central Time to announce/celebrate his decision. He of course visited Nebraska but he's such a hot commodity on the transfer market that any thing is possible.
 
So what does this tell us? He hasnt played against consistent D1 talent but yet he is being courted by many top programs in the country.

The number of guys like him, able to come in and play immediately is small. Developing our own talent is going to be the key long term.

Yes, Cornelius has moved on. Would have been a great addition to the offensive line room. Top level guys like this rarely end up at Neb.

Lol. You still need these type of athletes on your team.
 
It sucks when teams like Nebraska go after a player at different positions and the big dogs see that then they offer the kid knowing he probably won’t play much but to keep them fr signing with the struggling schools
 
It probably comes down to who wins the NIL bidding war would be my guess.

Between Cornelius and the kid from Arizona State, I would much rather have the ASU kid. For sure, he has proven P5 ability, whereas, like you say Tru, this other OL has yet to prove he can play.

There are lots of kids that have moved up to the D1 level and done a great job. Percentage-wise not a lot, but they are out there. The NFL has lots of players from smaller schools that become stars.
 
You're so ****ing dumb.

Have you EVER been right on this board? On anything??
Not sure where you are coming from…you need to walk that back.

The guy is literally the #1 redboarder I’ve ever seen, and I have been around 1000s of the worlds best post-race horse racing analysts in the world!

We are all lucky to have him and his expertise on this free board.

Keep waiting for his prediction on who is going to make the college football playoffs this season.

Sounds like you hang around a bunch of losers at the track.

Beautiful places like Horsemen’s Park(was great, will be great again) aren’t built from winning players my man!

I know you are a horse guy too…when you go to the OTB/track, you know as well as me that you’re going to be around a bunch of losers(I’m using “loser” in the kindest possible way…as in losing money that day).

Agree somewhat. The fastest way to get rid of those losers at the track is to give them about 5 losers in a row and then they don't bug you anymore. LOL

I've been to Horsemen many, many times. As far as facilities, the track keeps a designated percentage of straight WPS wagers and returns the rest to the public. There are different percentages for exotic bets. It's not like a casino.

The "real" money all tracks make is in dime breakage. When the math from a race is determined and the prices should be, for example, 3.69/2.97/2.29 for the win place show.

ALL those legitimate payoffs are lowered to 3.60/2.80/2.20 and the track keeps the change. You don't think that adds up in a hurry?

Yes, I understand. I might be the only one on the board that understands where you are coming from.

That’s why it’s nice that some places have quit the breakage…though to be honest I’ve been away from the game for a bit…at least since the .01 payouts for the most part.

Even though we're a bit OT here, most of these tracks just say should we keep the change, or else they don't even keep pennies. I tell 'em, "no I have change." Seems to piss them off. LOL
 
Cornelius took visits to Nebraska; Oregon; Tennessee & Ohio State.

According to Brad Crawford of 247, in his opinion Cornelius is most closely tied to Nebraska and Oregon. But he has offers from at least 24 schools also including among them Auburn, Florida, Penn State, South Carolina, Missouri, West Virginia, Syracuse, Maryland, Boston College, Cincinnati, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Louisville, Minnesota and Washington State.

Cornelius says he will base his decision first on how he likes the people at the school and second on his perceived opportunity for playing time at that school. If you believe the people are his first priority, then the visits where he could have seen and interacted with multiple staff and possibly players may have been key. We'll see though.

If you actually paid attention, you'd already know the answer to that. I can't help those unwilling to accept information from subject matter experts
You are as "right" as my grandpa was while he had Alzheimer's. But your only a national analyst being wrong is acceptable. But if you were a world analyst well you would be more like Grandpa was b4 the Alzheimer's.

That‘s why I like a higher percentage of landing him between the other three chasing him..
