Poster over on Tater Island is reporting Teddy got hurt…

– Ty Robinson has had time to see other Husker veterans lead and kind of compute what he thinks works and doesn't. He's working on improving himself in this area.

"I can be kind of a hard ass sometimes. I think it's just because my competitiveness really gets ahold of me and I want it to be done the right way. I want to just have us improve because to me I have a standard that's not really obtainable. Because if a standard's not obtainable you try to reach for it every day."

Robinson said he's OK with not being liked and thinks they will thank him for being that hard ass in the end.
Christian and Jason Peter (and Tommie Frazier) approve.
 
So grain of salt, but still pretty bad....

The Soph class is the first year of the covid year IIRC. So you basically have a who class of eligibility being pushed down.

Also that 2019 class has
Henrich
Benhart
Ty
Wright
Piper
Newsome
Johnson

Overall I would say that class had a 13/31 hit rate (41%)... You want to see that number closer to 50%. The other problem is you want to see about 25% get into the NFL via UDFA or draft. I think that number for that class is going to be around 4 with maybe 1 draft pick.

Ideally a standard should be...
30 kids come in
15 are busts because of talent evaluations, injuries, not mentally ready for the jump, etc...
Out of the other 15 half you want to see go to the NFL and of those half you want to see half of them be via the draft.

4 draft picks is what the average top 25 team does a year. Now that includes UGA having 10 in the first round, so it is skewed, but that is how I look at it.
I totally understand it and I probably wouldn't have mentioned it if Margaretville hadn't cried about how bad the roster was that he inherited from Riley for years after.
