I disagree with this completely. It would take Nebraska and their coaches very little effort to send people out to the local high schools in Lincoln and Omaha. Touch your bases so you're not losing out on kids to rival schools in the B1G because you can't even make a small effort to see them. Also shows they're full of shit when they talk about valuing Nebraska high school football in the state, when they can't even make it to the local high schools in Lincoln and the Omaha metro, when there's a bevy of FCS, G5, P4 schools making appearances.
I’m not one to give this staff much credit but they have gotten most of the in state kid that they actually wanted.
I think Nebraska has proven more than enough over the past decade they’ll take chances in instate kids.
Again. I’m not saying you’re taking a bunch of kids. It’s that there are a slew of schools in to stop in at high schools checking in on kids…who isn’t. Nebraska. It doesn’t take much effort to send a someone to the schools in Omaha and Lincoln…so when they do have someone…that’s my gripe.
Any idea why it's seemingly been that way for like 20 years throughout every coaching staff? I don't pay attention to recruiting at all, just seems like there is constantly this exact gripe with every staff.
It wouldn’t take much to check in is all I know. Shit. Send a staffer. A GA. An intern. Send someone. So the minute you have someone that could play at that level. It’s not the first time they’ve heard from you.
If we never take another Nebraska hs football player again, I'd be cool with it. Horrible hs football in the state and the “good ones” never pan out at Nebraska
Need to get him to the Salty Dog in Steele City ASAP
The ups and downs of in-state recruiting over the years has been an interesting watch and not all on the NU side either.
I'll outline the difference.
