November recruiting thread

Somebody correct me if I'm wrong but wasn't it known when the offers started rolling in that Manske grew up an ISU fan? How did Mongo not think to check in on that at any point in the past few months?
Remember when Riley and Cav went cocks out for Forest Sarrell only to find out like a month before signing day that Stanford had always been his dream school.


Lolz

They don't have an ISU and don't scour the competition sites for info.

As I pointed out in this thread above, the local fansites largely only cover recruit interactions with Nebraska, which leaves everyone overestimating Nebraska's chances. In all fairness to BM, early this week Greg Smith predicted Manske would commit to Nebraska when he visited this weekend. That also did not age well.
 
Fun fact - there are 8 people from Ainsworth (pop. 1,615) in this video, or 0.5% of the town's population.

The equivalent for a kid from the Omaha Metro (pop. 1.065m per wikipedia) would contain 5,240 people, and 3,275 of them would be coaches
AND if there was a camera man involved on the scene you can add 655 to the total of omaha natives in attendance with their cameras pointing his direction
 
I've said it a few times, but between our freshmen and incoming class, I absolutely love our WRs. There is a ton of speed and talent in the group. I'm high enough on them that I'm border line ok with them not even bringing in a portal WR. However, if they bring in even a decent veteran that can double as a guide for the young guys, that group gets pretty salty pretty quick.

Or a punt returner that can catch the ball and return. Hopefully they give Kemp the green light.
