Taylor/Ellis transferring to Millard South

[Flabio]

Not sure, little bit of tension there. Probably stems from the Thomalla thing where Rhule was making him come work out in front of them in Lincoln before offering but a CFP team came up to watch him throw from 100s of miles away. They are right there IMO.

They weren’t right about some of the recruits they wanted us to pursue this year, as several of them didn’t warrant an offer for various reasons.

Well with Ed Foley just sitting around park his ass up there to watch at least one practice a week and every game. Solved

God has been telling us we don't deserve nice things for decades and yet there are those that will not hear Him.

This will allow him plenty of time to acclimate to the creepiness of husker fans before he even starts fall camp

Jesus, this kid better pan out, that's all I'm saying. Nebraska, Millard South and Trae just said "fuck it, all in" at a high stakes poker table. This crash and burns bad if he doesn't pan out. JMO.

When will the kid from Texas announce he’s transferring to MS?

He will be Dean and Traes surprise special guest at the Knights of Columbus spaghetti dinner

Damn, I wonder how much of that is beer sales.

The belly ache crying from Westside and Elkhorn parents will be pretty funny to watch.

Not much I reckon. The actual revenue number Nebraska’s AD reported for 2024 was $220m, so not sure what adjustments are being made by WSJ. In any case, the claim that we’re poor is not true. Whether we’re adequately marshaling our resources is a different matter…

I must be out of the loop, what are the rules on this? That seems pretty fucked up.

NSAA has a Domicile rule, which is ineffective. Millard South has open districts so you can reside literally anywhere in the USA.

Final nail in the coffin of actual competition in Nebraska high school football.

 

[SlumpBuster]

I am going to continue dying on this hill. Trae Taylor is the single most important recruit Nebraska has had in the past 25 years.

Many of us are dying on that hill with you.

I think there is a great chance that 25 years from now people look back at him as the greatest QB who ever played at Nebraska.

I usually like to reserve my opinion (probably as some form of self defense against Husker Fandom pain)...but the kool-aid is out of the bottle and there's no putting it back. He's going to alter our program forever in a good way.

If it wasn't already.

 

[SlumpBuster]

Every so often a qb comes along that is so talented, coaching ineptitude doesn't matter. Cam Newton as an example. This kid might be the single factor that saves Rhule's job.

Can't wait for Rhule's next extension...he'll owe half of it to Trae Taylor

 

[Tsakoi]

Some of you are more than willing to fall into the "savior" trap.......again.

Makes more sense now that I look at the methodology. What I posted was actually 2022 data.

That is good.

You view those as bad hires for those 2 programs?

Fritz is a solid coach but he was 54-47 at Tulane and had a losing record in conference.

Fisch is TBD because he’s constantly moving. He’s below .500 in his career and has 2/5 winning seasons.

You’re one of those dummies that thought Dannen hired DeBoer, aren’t you?
