First offer

[Herbie]

Derek Jones would be nice

This to me means that Rhule has some people who have verbally committed to be on his Nebraska staff.

I’d like to think he will have key pieces finalized by mondays presser.

 

[vailhusker]

Sounds like Rhule made the offer himself -

 

[Fargo Husker]

Yup. And defensive recruiting coordinator. Former DC at Texas Texh and associate HC there and Duke.

That’s a hell of a resume.

I realize it’s not the same position group but my mind went immediately to Joe Rudolph when I saw VTech.

Rhule loves track kids

Yep. His recruiting philosophy is essentially get the best athletes possible regardless of fine skills and position, then develop them into players.

Saw some quote where he said if you’re between 6’1 and 6”5, 210-250 lbs, and can run like a horse, he’s gonna recruit you and figure the rest out later.

Also is much more interest in straight line speed than change of direction ability. Can teach and develop agility. Can’t teach speed.

 

[Milo-of-Croton]

We gotta be dropping our current QB commit and offering someone else soon too right??

That will be interesting. Rhule seems to like dual threat quartbacks and Pop Watson is that.

Mostly a G5 offer list, like five P5 offers to a dozen G5.

He talked in his AFCA presentation about how he had a DT that led the line in tackles, caught 10+ passes as a TE, and blocked on special teams

It’s Whipple’s guy though. I’d think it’d be a mutual parting of ways.

He visited vtech a couple weeks ago when the writing in the wall was Whipple is gone, right?

Ya know what I’m most excited for? Under Frost, we got 4⭐️recruits and turned them into 2⭐️

With Rhule - I’m hoping we get 3 and 4 ⭐️ guys and turn them into 4 and 5 ⭐️ players.

Last time i heard “length and figure the rest out later” we ended up with a 7ft tall offensive line that can’t move

Yes, he did visit another school. You could be right, he could be gone. Rhule will evaluate him, as far as I know he has not yet decommitted.
