Good luck to the kid .Saw a quicker path to the field.
maybeWe have enough TEs.
Surviving is just about all this program has done for several years.Nebraska will definitely survive without this one.
maybe
none have proven anything on the field
MS seems loaded this year...Nebraska will definitely survive without this one.
Yes if there is one thing that Nebraska football is known for over the last 15 years, it's surviving.Nebraska will definitely survive without this one.
TE is not a position of need. But it is OK to stockpile talent at a position. That's what the best programs do. And second, how in the hell does this program even get out of this hole if we can't out recruit the really good programs for talent that they actually want? We need a lot more Raiolas and Grant Brix level recruits and fewer guys who report offers to places that they wouldn't be allowed to take an official visit to.We have enough TEs.

Can't wait to see the QB's annoying Dad cause problems.
Not sure if Chase really had a say on where he plays.Kid should have stayed at Elkhorn North
Always hate to lose one of the top recruits in the State… This one hurts but we already have good depth at TE…
to be fair, Bear and Chase basically aren’t the same postion. Chase would be more of the flex/hybrid TE and Bear is hand in the dirt guy that we are used to seeing in Rhule’s offenses.Doesn't Bear Tenney have more offers?
Good for him going where he wants, but man, FSU? After they stole our national championship? Not that this kid was alive to remember that...
Would be nice to have the kid who went to ISU and played big minutes last year as a true froshto be fair, Bear and Chase basically aren’t the same postion. Chase would be more of the flex/hybrid TE and Bear is hand in the dirt guy that we are used to seeing in Rhule’s offenses.
You always hate to see top instate talent leave and can never have too much talent. Look in 22 when we didn’t land Helms or Ducker, everyone said we had enough TE talent. Well we didnt. Granted Helms and Ducker haven’t proven anything but we most certainly didn’t have too much talent at TE. We had guys on the scholarship who had no place playing P5 football.
Win 9-10 this year. Keep the door open and maybe he is only 999% committed.Yeah, but is he 1000% committed? .. Ah whatever. My level of give a shit is busted.
Frist didn’t blow it with Bremher from Pierce that went to ISU . He loved Frost and switched after he was Fired.Frost blew it with that ISU kid IIRC. Would have loved to have this Loftin kid but TE seems to be a position we have local options and seem to recruit pretty good.
While I don't agree with all of this, there seems to be an attitude of we are loaded or set anyway and then list names of players who haven't proven a thing, i.e. Smith. Chase appears to be very fluid, runs great routes and can adjust to the ball and actually catch it. I admire Fidone and all he has been through but fluidity is not a word I would use to describe him.Would be nice to have the kid who went to ISU and played big minutes last year as a true frosh
44 sucks ass and Fidone looks like a guy who’s suffered two major knee injuries and has basically zero interest in blocking
Maybe Carter shows up ready to roll, maybe those guys get better. I don’t know. And I don’t know if this kids any good either.
But I do know we have essentially zero NFL guys and can afford to get better everywhere. the “we’re good” delusionals make me chuckle.
Awesome first post. Didn't your.team just have a starting WR arrested? Better go focus on that.Kid probably values actually playing in bowl games
Given the challenges the staff is having recruiting actual football players I am hearing we have staff on a plane to Belgium where they will be recruiting youth soccer games for players they believe they can develop
Bold move
I know I don’t think Nebraska is all that great at TE currently. I just don’t believe this is the kid who would change that.Would be nice to have the kid who went to ISU and played big minutes last year as a true frosh

Are the parents the ones driving the show here?Not sure if Chase really had a say on where he plays.

Agreed. Nebraska has very few 4 star in- state talent due to its small population. The ones that ARE out there, you need to keep at home. Don’t care if we have other TEs.We will survive. And I wish the kid well. But what hurts about this is he is a 4 star Nebraska kid. You just always hate to lose those in State recruits. Even Osborne lost a Nebraska kid every once in a while. But it still stinks. Rhule has been pretty good at keeping the local talent home so far. So losing one is not indicative of a trend. But we had better have a break out season this year or it will become a trend. Another losing season or even a bland and mediocre season of ugly football and the gild will be off the Rhule lily. These days you don’t get five years to “build” your program. We need to win again. Simple as that.
