And so it begins...(tracking Coach Prime decommits/transfers)

Yeah. Least shocking thing I've read this week.
 
Wow, where are all the folks from last year who wanted Deion as the Husker coach? Funny how they all seem to be avoiding this particular thread.
Potatoes run as well as they roll.

It was worse on Inside Nebraska IMO. Anyone with half a brain could've seen at least "some" of this coming. TBH, it's worse than I thought it'd be. It's certainly not over, so I won't dance on the grave yet...but not looking too good.
 
The only thing I really underestimated with the Deion hire was how good of a QB Shadildo is. Without him it would have been a bigger train wreck from the beginning.

Also, I get running off all the skill players and getting guys from the portal but I never understood why you would run off OL and DL. They are so much harder to plug and play.

He ran off several players that became starters or meaningful contributors to other Power 5 teams. A lot of players that would have helped him this year were run off, the real odd thing is that there was room on the roster. They weren't close to using 85 scholarships. If my memory is right I think they were only at 76 when fall practice started.

With their commitments they are sitting at 68 scholarships right now. They have room, but does anybody want to join?

I have a feeling they’re gonna get a lot of portholers over the next week. Hope I’m wrong.

I see that they are hosting a highly ranked OT that is currently committed to Oregon. Can't find the story now.
 
Deion has a lot to prove in recruiting and I’m surprised people here are still giving him the benefit of the doubt. He’s not even close to the level of what elite recruiters do in their first year

True, plus he lost a few of his top recruiters on his staff and needs to rehire some coaches, unless he thinks he can do it all alone.
