2024-25 Nebraska Football Roster Attrition + Graduation

Rhule’s vision of promoting from within looks like it could be majorly flawed in today’s game. If TW and Pot Roast completely clean us out, then we need to make a big hire that has some dudes he’s developed already to come with him. (We would have to make an exception for Leonard. Big drawback of hiring someone from the NFL. He’s too good to pass up though.)

We are at a critical juncture. If we have to rebuild the defense then we could effectively be wasting our time with DR. What a train wreck this program is.
 
What if all these players are just trying to get paid like Ty and Nash? Like, they expect to come back with more $$

One would figure they would engage with 1890 before entering unless there’s something that prevents it. I’m clueless and I think it’s something else we are not privy to or Rhule is a hard ass and doesn’t give them ice cream with sprinkles or country club membership Gate 55.
 
I know this idea probably won’t help calm people down about players leaving even though we KNEW we had to trim the roster by about 1/3 but we are Husker fans….. we freak out…..
@HuskerGarrett Any way we could compile a list/spreadsheet of current roster departures that would include whether they were asked to leave (whether due to roster limitations or other factors) OR if they left on their own? I know that would require substantial help from insidehers to gather that type of intel so it may have to be its own thread in the premium side. I also realize that we may not get that information on every player that leaves.

Rule of thumb for now..

If they’ve already left then Rhule and 1890 weren’t offering them the money they wanted hence in a way we were sort of showing them the door.

The ones who will be leaving in the future are actively re-negotiating their salaries. Most of them we want to keep but it doesn’t mean we value them the same as they value themselves.

The players who leave immediately after interviews were told “sorry, the bastards in the ncaa are making us cut you”.
 
I’m sorry and I know this is how it is now but this flat out SUCKS. I used to know every player at every position from first to third string. This is turning into nothing but a damn JUCO. Different players every year. It’s nothing but a business now and I get it but they better get some sort of reigns on this thing or else just turn it into the NFL model with salary caps and the whole thing.

All we heard is how we had to get to a bowl game and how bad the players wanted to turn this thing around. Well we finally get to a bowl game and the players all kiss the program goodbye. Just makes me sick.

I just said to someone today that the days of knowing players names are over. Too much floating in and out.
 
Speaking of attrition......

Are there two guys who made bigger mistakes in leaving Nebraska than Ernest Hausman and Tamon Lynum?

TW would have turned EH into a fucking monster and Lynum would have been a starter this year. Or at least would have played a ton of snaps each game.

Hausmann has a NC ring; I don’t think so.
