Hall to the portal

I’m speculating the new receiver coach will demand blocking and running precise routes unlike the jr high coach we previously had

I hope so otherwise what are you doing. No more stopping by the office to eat snacks and shit. No more trying to be a "friend". This is big business and should be treated as such.

I still feel that way. I won't shed any tears for Hall though. Some of those Omaha Metro kids do not have an in-state mentality. Heck, most of the good basketball talent won't even consider Nebraska.
I think it is pretty common in basketball for "city" kids to go anywhere. Far more Seattle area kids go out-of-state than stay and play for the Huskies, Cougs and even the Zags. For example, Jaylin Stewart from Seattle's Garfield High is playing for UConn.

Stewart is a relative of UCONN Alum Donny Marshall.

Who is from Federal Way, WA, a Seattle suburb. Interesting piece of trivia, Donny, was an All-State Soccer player too. I watched Donny play just about everything. I lived in the same area and Federal Way High is where my brother went for his senior year of high school after our dad got transferred from Nebraska to Seattle.

Donny was a fan favorite in Storrs. Love the quote from Calhoun about Donny during his Junior year. “He’s making shots he wouldn’t have taken last year, and would have needed written permission to take his freshman year.”

So we thinking this was a Rhule force out? Hopefully he would be smart enough to not leave without a good offer.
 
Classic example of a kid who is deemed a four star early in his HS career and doesn't get much better. Common story at NU in the last 12 years or so.
For the years toward the end of Mac Brown's time at TX, people wondered why Mac's always top ten ranked recruiting class were able to underperform. Well, every year Texas gets the pick of high talent emerging from their Jr HS year and the coaches (all with quite a bit of tenure) often has their players committed before the kids played a single down of Sr year football. So they got more than a few kids for whom their Jr year of HS was their best year. Frost's game was taking kids that had blue chip athleticism, but were NR between the ears and just not particularly good FB players.
