Sounds like a bidding War for the TCU kid so dont count on him. More likely the N. Texas Twins
There is no way we can compete financially with Texas. Our NIL Program isn't nearly as lucrative as theirs, no matter what Dean tries to pimp. I think the biggest advantage we would have over a team like Texas is that due to our poor recruiting and player development we can offer Playing Time with little competition. A solid Pass Rusher is basically guaranteed to see the field this season at Nebraska where as you know Texas has some athletes sitting on their bench that he would need to compete against.

There wouldn't even be a bidding war. It would be like two guys playing poker and one of them has 90% of the chips.

Just have to get to 85 by fall right? Did we get the TCU kid? That would explain Payne now.
I think you still keep Payne till after spring.. Nothing is final or matters until he receives aid.

You have to be within 3 by signing day and 85 by fall iirc

I meant he chose to leave at that point. That doesn't sound very likely anyway. I thought I read somewhere he was N.

Not unless he's got a whole lot quicker since high school. Seemed slow off the ball to me. Good hands and a decent route runner but quick definitely wouldn't be an adjective I'd have used.
Never watched him play at Prep…I take it you weren’t all that impressed

Measurables he looks great. Hes got the shoulders of an OT. He never seemed like he was trying very hard. Particularly on defense. Moved faster than he looked like he was moving. Big long strides. No burst though.

I thought little Bullock was a better football player by a pretty wide margin. He really wants to play WR but don't think he'll ever see the field there. I think he should switch to safety. Think he'd see the field later in his career there.

Well spring ball is in the books and we’ve had a chance to see some live scrimmage action. I’d wager we see some movement in the next couple weeks. Predictions?

I just have a feeling NPG may not stick. I don’t remember seeing him until like the 4th quarter today. Just doesn’t seem like he’s in the mix at all.

I think NPG, Clark, 2 of the freshman wideouts, and one or two garbage linemen bounce.
I know it’s the spring game, but hated the way Grimes just walked into the end zone on his score, after getting his catch broken up on the attempt before. Might be a little too casual for ol Mick

Stepp should probably just take a medical and end his career. Poor guy can’t catch a break.
Did he even have a carry today? I remember him on punt coverage but don't remember him rushing, even before the walk ons.
