It sucks to lose him, but this seemed likely from what we saw this spring.
I think Ajay had the highest ceiling of all the guys we had at RB, but it also seems he had a tude issue, and losing the coach who recruited him pushed it to portal time.

Ajay was a talent, but RB is dead last on the list of positions where I have any concern about Rhule being able to bring in top guys.

YRC. Fumbled and laid on the turf for a long time. I thought he was hurt but he was just feeling sorry for himself. Also dropped a nice pass that came his way on a rb up route down the middle.
Yikes. This is pretty awful—I am surprised this made it to the public

Nebraska wide receiver Jalil Martin enters NCAA Transfer Portal
Steve Samra • about 23 hours
Nebraska Cornhuskers wide receiver Jalil Martin has entered the NCAA Transfer Portal, per On3’s Matt Zenitz.
Over the course of his time with the Cornhuskers, Martin did not record a reception, so he’ll be looking to make a grander impact at his next stop, wherever that may be.
Jalil Martin is an Illinois product and played high school ball at Kenwood Academy (IL), where he was rated as a three-star prospect and the No. 602 overall player in the 2022 class, according to the On3 Industry Rankings, a weighted composite of all the top recruiting services.

200 yards is actually a considerable amount. With our o line.

I guess I am just surprised his effort could be this poor in the short warmup drills before the real practice. I think the press was only allowed to be at practice for like the first 30 minutes a couple times.
But you guys are all ecstatic about a third year RB in Ervin who’s best accolade is being all world practice player and a below average game player

If Allen was 4th string, there was a reason why

we are? I'm not excited about Ervin, he's just another dude
I tend to think with a mediocre at best OL no RB will get a chance to do much this year anyway

I think what bothered me about that video is that it’s like showing up to a new job and being an asshole your first week. I think coaching attitude early in spring would have really pissed me off as a new staff.

Sorry but that absolutely played a factor. It boils down to effort, commitment, and relationships. Allen has the look of a guy that wasn’t 100% committed. His old position coach was let go, on top of the fact that he was a late commit in the first place. Then add in that the new staff is big on relationships and effort. All of that together led to a kid being unhappy and possibly having outside influences swaying him further. You can’t tell me that a kid in college doesn’t see and hear that video and have it not affect him.

I guess I don’t know what’s controversial about thinking something was up after that moment. I was his age once and did things 100x worse than that, so I’m not saying this to demonize the kid. But, it’s early during the first spring you have with a new staff, which amounts to making a first/early impression, and during the limited time media is allowed to spectate you have a “difficult moment” like that? Having such a limited ability to overcome frustration that early in spring ball for a small window of time doesn’t put us in a position to “know what’s happening,” but if someone is starting to crack that early it probably isn’t a great sign, especially if they later find themselves buried on the depth chart.
I know Mitch isn’t making a good faith argument seeing as he is building a straw man by overstating the point that’s being made, but still.
