I know, but many are treating this like, not a huge deal. Yes of course we can still and probably will still fill our class, but the sooner it is filled the better the chances of getting quality athletes vs just taking bodies to fill a class.Not to be a jerk, but we are not a top 25 team. 4-8 last 2 years, remember? To expect that we should be raking in the recruits like all of the schools you mentioned after back to back 4-8 seasons is a little bit much to expect, don’t you think?
Nebraska is at a disadvantage due to location and where you are trying to pull recruits from. Camps are to evaluate some in the 2020 class but just as important it is to evaluate players in the 2021 and 2022 classes. Most in the 2020 class have already been evaluated on campus camps and have been and are being recruited hard . The majority of the class will be in by the end of summer. June s d July camps are for evaluating 2021 and 2022 players. Unofficial visits are critical along with camps . Where distance is not a. Issue players have already made 4 or more unofficial visits to each school of interest before they commit which occurs by the end of summer. Nebraska is at a big disadvantage. Hard to develop a relationship with players that live 900 miles away when they can not unofficially visit your campus.

I think it's fair to ask what has changed from last year to this year. We know the staff can recruit, because they have done a good job of it before. It makes me wonder, at least a little bit, what has changed.
When you go down the offer list, and see lots of names now committed to other schools, it's pretty easy to see that the quality of fish left in the pond is starting to drop off.
nice sample size..ah, yes, the old sample size of 1 argument
verbal commitments from 17-year olds mean next to nothing. injuries, academics, friends/family, a million other variables change things. a lot.
remember Wandale, solid UK commit?
nobody ever won (or lost) a national title in June. chill
nice sample size..
..
you do see what you did there right?
that's interesting.. I mentioned the entire offer list, and you hit me with the sample size of 1 argument, (which doesn't make sense), and then used one example yourself.. You're a pretty smart guy for sure.of course. just speaking your simple language. you know, dumb things down a bit. glad you caught on

so now you are comparing a sample size of 1 player to a sample size of 1 year.. okay.the sample of 1 you used is Frost's first recruiting cycle at NU, genius. not the entire offer list.
I see.. so you're really saying that we have to flip the next 15 commitments then? to extrapolate on your Wandale example..you see, when someone uses a specific example (Wandale) to illustrate the literally thousands of kids who've changed their commitment, it should be easy to extrapolate. because, obviously.
when somebody uses an actual sample of 1, like you saying 'WhAtS cHaNgEd?' as if last year is some kind of baseline of what every single recruiting cycle with Frost will look like, well it just sounds foolish.
like saying it's fair to ask a baseball player 'wHaT's ChAnGeD?' after going 1-1 then making an out or vice versa.
so now you are comparing a sample size of 1 player to a sample size of 1 year.. okay.

Okay, so now you seem to be saying that I should not base my 'We know the staff can recruit' comment on only 1 year, because it's too small of a sample.. so you think they are bad recruiters then?Wandale is 1 example of the LITERALLY THOUSANDS of kids who've changed their minds on offers to illustrate my point that verbal commitments at this time of the year are next to meaningless.
You said:
literally comparing a sample of exactly 1 year to this year and asking what's changed, as if that 1 year sample tells us anything about Frost's recruiting, which of course it doesn't.
I'm not sure how I can be any more clear in explaining why your 'question' of what's changed is nothing but paranoid impatient alarmism.

Keep digging that hole..
I have no clue, but using just basic math, 50 changed commits per year means in 20 years that’s a thousand.I want to know who the "thousands" are that change their mind. Is that over several lifetimes? There is a limited number of highly ranked players, that is fact. How many 4 and 5* players change their commitment on average per year? I have no idea, just asking for someone's friend of a friend.

With almost 130 universities offering 20 scholies per year, that’s 2600 scholies offered. I would think 50 switches wouldn’t be that much all things considered... it doesn’t take long to have thousands of commits changed over the years.
But I’m just spitballing.
Edit: you’d be surprised how many 3 star players flip as well, I’m guessing.
Doesnt help players know we have a ton of young players at key positions.
This year may not be as good as the last 2.
But if we improve I can see 2021 being an awesome class.

Guys, guys, guys, the Huskers will get those recruits, alright?
It's been slow this year.

of course. just speaking your simple language. you know, dumb things down a bit. glad you caught on
Some recruits know good car salesmen dont make good football coaches, some have trouble figuring it out, some just want the cool car, and some get those cars.
Some kids know whats real, and if it matches what they want, they come to Nebraska.
Gee, I didn't realize that the choice limited only to a mid-summer BBQ or the Ohio State game. Seems like almost all the top 50 programs in the country prefer to sign them now rather that wait for the fall. But what do they know?Camps are for guys that live close or are trying to get noticed. If you have a big time recruit that wants to take an official visit to Lincoln from another part of the country and you only get one visit from them, would you push him to attend your mid-summer BBQ or the Ohio State game?
Don’t feel bad Top_Gun...me and NikkiSixx had a small disagreement a while ago...I don’t even remember what it was about...something petty and definitely nothing big and he hasn’t spoken to me since. He hasn’t liked anything I post or even respond to anything I’m chatting about. He answers and chats to others that are literally posting to me or around me...but literally acts like I’m a damn ghost since. Dudes like that.
It's not something I have done consciously.. I don't even remember having the disagreement.
