Raridon makes huge jump in Rivals ratings (from 205 to 101) and POB lands in top 250

[HuskerTimOmaha]

Patrick O'Brien lands at #178, don't believe he was in the T250 before. I know Rivals gave him a fourth star prior to his senior season starting, but can't remember on the T250.

Huskers target Lamar Jackson is #78, Dez Fitzpatrick went from unranked to #208.

Other notes
LSU has 9 commits in the T250
Ohio State, Georgia, Clemson, Stanford & Florida State each have 8 commits in the T250
Michigan State, Alabama & Michigan each have 7 commits in the T250

POB was 215 before the newest rating.

Nice. Credit where it's due, this staff jumped on POB and locked him up before most people got a chance to find out how good he is. Found a gem on that one for sure.

Still feeling like NU finishes somewhere around 20 in the rankings?

 

[BigRedBugeaters]

Watched him play twice this year at WDM Valley. Will be a very nice player when he fills out

Thanks for the updates, Tim. You are a beacon in this dark dreary place we call HOL.

So how many T250 do we have? Just the two you named and the potential for the other 2? How does that rate with the rest of the B1G?

Still can't believe we biffed on Garrett Rand...his dad is from Alliance and is a big Husker fan.

They better fill this class... been hovering around the mid teens for an eternity now, and the season's record hasn't inspired much movement.

I can picture the peanut salesman in the stands, calling out that "Four Year Scholarship" selling point..

A lot of schools "biffed" on him, I'll be surprised if he's at Wisconsin longer than 2 years.

When was the last time (if ever) that NU had 3 top 250 guys in one class?

Thank you!

 

[HuskerTimOmaha]

2013 had 3, 2 were RB's.

2011had 7, 5 didn't make it pass 2 years.

That seemed to happen a lot! Part of the problem

But yet some will still use that class ranking like Nebraska/Bo accomplished something.

Don't you have a sizable bet with another poster on the outcome of recruiting?

We need that vendor on TV who created the playoff system. Cool

Never heard of either. I'd better fire up Netscape and go to my favorite search engine, Lycos, to find the answer.

Fills out? Isn't he like 220 lbs? Watched his film in the camps this past Summer and thought he was filled out.

So much confidence until they had to put up or shut up, eh?
