No. McCord wasn’t coming if we didn’t guarantee him he would be the starter and I believe Raiola had a similar expectation.
Portal Offers and Visits
- Thread starter headcard
- Start date
And yet the drunk down at Texas can manage to keep a generational talent with last name Manning content for 2 years as a backup. How is that possible? Can the drunkard manage a program that much better than Rhule?
McCord was turned down by Rhule AFTER McCord's father called Rhule and started making demands. Rhule didn't want to deal with that kind of parent.
He's been sober for almost a decade, but carry on
Hilarious or not that's the story that insiders told at the time. Until the father called it seemed like a done deal and then after the father called the deal went sour. It was the father, not the player that blew up the deal.
Yes Texas can do shit like this because they have the NIL to do that . Arch is making double of what most starting QBs are making.Plus they are Winning. People like you thinks Nebraska has the ability to Match Texas Oregon etc. on NIL . We simply do that it’s as simple as that.
Apples and Oranges. Ewers was already on campus and Manning was coming in to replace him. They didn't come in at the same time.
it would be nice if rhule came to the podium and said we got hardy, world, hunter, and the mich center..and that they were preparing for bc, with the team
Ryan Day wanted McCord to stay at OSU and compete with a portal addition, who was eventually Howard. Why did he even leave OSU? They had money and a chance at a title. He left because he refused to take any chance of riding the bench his last year in CFB.
Honestly, you kind of sound like the one who is a drunkard.
That’s actually a great argument… but you aren’t going to change his mind no matter how sound your argument. His mind is made up and no one will tell him any differently.
If this guy is that good I wish they would start handing him wads of cash until he agreed to cancel all other visits. Slide Gottula over to RT.
Would be a huge get. It looks like he's always played RT, maybe he could slide over to LT.
That's a hard transition if that's all he's ever done
He finished 11-1 last year and then in top 10 in Heisman voting this year. He obviously deserved to start.
With the portal additions we've been able to land this year, NIL doesn't seem to be a huge issue. Rhule wanted to kowtow to a freshman instead of giving us a shot at winning this season, end of story.
According to those in the know, Eric Rivers just committed to Georgia Tech.
We better drop a fvcking BAG of cash in his lap this weekend and not let him leave without signing him up
I really like Hunter. Big, fast, productive and three years of eligibility.
I think he is confusing M’Pemba with Pace. I haven’t heard anything about M’Pemba and Io_a.
I think it's a whole different level of conversations with the two fathers.
I wonder if Nebraska is Key's last visit and if he will be making a decision after the visit?
I doubt it. Raiola's do what's best for the Raiola's. And right now, Nebraska is willing to pay the most.
Where are the actual linebackers? To my knowledge we only have 2 on scholarship (I am not counting Edge players like Nwaneri, McGahee, Jones, Merrit).
Shavers
Rodgers (didn't really play this year)
Genatone (only played ST)

In the 3-3-5, MaGahee is one of the 3 LBs. NU is listing Nwaneri as a DE. Jones looks like he would play the non-JACK OLB. Merritt is a pash rusher, but still looks to be growing into his body. I think it's likely that Jones will play in the LB rotation as a first year guy. Genatone is a really athletic kid, but that hasn't really translated to the football field for him.
