Yeah perhaps. He played QB in a bad offense as a redshirt freshman. Never got a starter's reps in the spring or pre-season in the fall. He stabilized the position, but his inexperience showed. If he were to start three more seasons, it's very reasonable to think that he could get a lot better in several areas. But I don't think he's gonna get that chance.Is he a good QB?
I hope you don't pull something. Stay safe.He’s a great teammate and a cultural cornerstone.
Rhule recognized this immediately and I applaud him for it.
We need more guys like Haarberg, not less.
The question needs to be, can he become a good backup QB. I’m glad we have him in the room and I believe he can be better than he showed last fall.Yeah perhaps.

He may not be a "good" QB but IMO, he is a better passer than Turner Gill, Mikey Joseph, Tommie Frazier, Scott Frost or Jamal Lord. I am happy that he is on this team and in the QB room just being Heinrich Haarberg.He is always one play away from being called upon, so hopefully he has taken a step forward. I do think he will do whatever is asked of him and that’s a dude I’m happy to call a Husker.
Uhhhh. Turner Gill? Mmmmm not exactly.He may not be a "good" QB but IMO, he is a better passer than Turner Gill, Mikey Joseph, Tommie Frazier, Scott Frost or Jamal Lord. I am happy that he is on this team and in the QB room just being Heinrich Haarberg.
We will differ about that until death do us apart.Uhhhh. Turner Gill? Mmmmm not exactly.
Yah - disagree greatly on that one. Gill was a very poised passer. He wasn’t Mickey or Tommie. Gill was a much better passer than HH (to this point). Did the original poster see Gill play??Uhhhh. Turner Gill? Mmmmm not exactly.
That’s one of the craziest takes I’ve ever seen on here but we all have opinionsWe will differ about that until death do us apart.
I do not know about him. I have witnessed Turner Gill's career including his coaching.Yah - disagree greatly on that one. Gill was a very poised passer. He wasn’t Mickey or Tommie. Gill was a much better passer than HH (to this point). Did the original poster see Gill play??
HH better passer based on last year? Ok. I’ll leave it there. Thx.I do not know about him. I have witnessed Turner Gill's career including his coaching.
He was a top 4 Heisman finalist. He had good legs but wasn’t the runner that Tommie or Crouch were. On what planet would HH ever finish in the top 4 in the Heisman race? Much of Gill’s talent was in his balance - good runner and good passer. He wasn’t Jamaal Lord or Mickey Joseph or Scott Frost. Far from it. If Neb didn’t have Rozier that year, Gill may very well have won the Heisman.I do not know about him. I have witnessed Turner Gill's career including his coaching.
Him or the WR that he helped also finish in the top of the heisman voting, and taken as the #1 overall pick in the NFL draft. What a dumbass comment.He was a top 4 Heisman finalist.

Haarberg getting on the field this fall may be tough. If he spends too much time on Harper Murray's issues it will be tougher.I hope someday he looks the part. He was asked a lot last season and gave it his all. If he could reign in some of those throws he could be just fine.
Maybe he can get his gf into rehab as well and really be a well-rounded Husker
Agreed! For me, Turner was a much better passer!Uhhhh. Turner Gill? Mmmmm not exactly.
Lord was better than he got credit for also. His O line and WRs left something to be desired. IF Haarberg could produce Lord like numbers he would be okay.Agreed! For me, Turner was a much better passer!
Are you talking about the NAIA guy that was brought in to run the scout team and hold a clipboard while getting his foot in the door at a D1 to kick start his coaching career? Rhule is directly on record that the kid wants to coach. He's not the backup.The new QB transfer takes care of the need for a backup this year.
Correction: He's the backup to the backup to the backup to the actual backup.Are you talking about the NAIA guy that was brought in to run the scout team and hold a clipboard while getting his foot in the door at a D1 to kick start his coaching career?
