Breaking Mickey Quote From Sharp And Benning

[Red Finger]

Amazing how many high school coaches and recruits Busch & Mickey have contacted in their short time here. They are showing the other coaches how recruiting is done by the successful coaches at the Power5 Level.

A friend of mine has a son who is a SR that is getting offers within the 200 mile radius of Lincoln and he got his first real contact from Nebraska when Busch reached out to him right after he was hired full time. Covid hurt this kids recruitment because he couldn't go to camps and was needed to play out of position for his high school. He is one hell of an athlete from a family that is littered with college and pro athletes. They are scheduling a visit to Nebraska. They have lots of family in Nebraska plus relatives who have played at Nebraska but never heard from the Nebraska Staff until Busch contacted him. Not sure if he would be considered a Scholarship Offer or a Preferred Walk On but I will get some scoop on this. Will be interesting to see what they think of Busch.

This doesn't surprise me in the slightest. Sioux Falls Washington has produced more scholarship athletes than almost any school in the past ten years, but when they came up here the first time, they went to the wrong school. The head coach at that school told them they were at the were at the wrong school.

Incredible.

Does the program really need Frost anymore? What does he bring to the table? Skoal & Busch Light? It's not like Frost has ever really even called a good game.

Need him? Probably not. Want him? Yep

The scripted plays to start the game are usually pretty good.

Well you see, ultimately he's a "Nebraskan". @Pipe Line can help you out better on that thought process.

But but but....I was told that's not how it works anymore. Kids do what they want, bad character kids, "we already have amaaaazing TE's" covid, transfer portal, SF is a genius and is passing on these swimtown boyz, etc etc etc etc etc etc. Mickey doesn't seem like he wants to hear excuses... 🤔 Sounds like my kinda guy.

I’ve always equated losing a percentage of the Omaha kids to being losers. If Frost would have came in and won out of the gate I don’t think we are talking about this problem now.

Thank's in advance Mick

Now do St. Louis
Where there are 10x the players

But then Dirk might write articles and tweet about how Nebraska doesn't recruit Nebraska kids.............

It definitely does not help his cause and has allowed other schools to come in like it's their territory. They are basically doing to Nebraska what Nebraska used to do to neighboring states (MO, IA, CO, KS) when NU had a winning program.

Let's call what it is, if he isn't a Nebraskan, he would have been fired about 2 months ago now. Not hard to realize that.

They just need to lengthen the Script to 70, up from 20.
