Sorry, I didn't mean to unload on you necessarily, you liked a post by
@husker2612 which basically said, we can't compete with Ohio St because their proximity to 4 stars is closer than our proximity to 4 stars. I get that their road is easier, that was never in debate. I just grow tired of the argument that because Nebraska is in the middle of the country or in an isolated area, that they cant get enough talent to land Top 15 classes. They don't need to win 5 out of 10 battles with Ohio St for players that are in Ohio. They just need to win 1. They don't need to win 5 out of ten battles with Texas and Texas A&M, they just need to win 1. etc. etc etc.
Eugene, Pullman, Seattle, none are some sort of draw for great players. They are just a bunch of cracker cities much like Lincoln. Yet they are all playing in bowls and 2 of the 3 are playing in the CFP. There is a precedent, it can be done. People need to quit finding excuses for why shit can't get done. It can get done, and I have no doubt that Frost and company will get it done.
Sort of a p.s. have you ever been to Independence, KS, or El Dorado, KS or Scooba, MS? Those places are horrible. But guess what, if a player is looking to get to the big time, they will go pretty much anywhere to reach that goal. When you have a coach like Scott Frost, facilities like Nebraska, even as "outdated" as they are, and are winning games, you can get top players to come to your school.
Believe dat!!
