Why was everyone so excited about Toure?

[Blackshirts44]

Toure against MINNESOTA: 1 Rec, 1 yd
Michigan: 3 Rec, 38 yds
Mich St: 5 Rec, 42 yds
Oklahoma: 3 Rec, 27 yds

The guy just doesn’t get it done against elite talent, everyone on RSS wanted to buy into the hype and give me shit for telling everyone to pump the breaks on him

Unpopular take, but...

Wan'Dale > Toure

turns out he’s not too slow for his size if he’s properly utilized - and lining him up at running back and sending him up the gut was not proper utilization

Turns out the Oregon offense doesn’t work in Lincoln without the proper pieces utilized properly

Any offense can work in Lincoln if you have coherent play calling and a QB that can read a defense - Sadly we often have neither

He is open quite a bit, Martinez just can’t find him

A little more complicated than that but I guess

If toure had a qb that could get the ball to him he would be a 1000 yd guy this year. He will play in the nfl.

not really - you seem to think Nebraska can only succeed using a certain type of system and I don’t see why that’s true

 

[doublewing]

Toure is just part of the off-season BS hype we get every year. Wasn't Markese Stepp supposed to be carrying the load?

It's about as entertaining as when they speculate who the "Duck-R" guy is going to be. Alante Brown was going to duck shit up if I remember correctly.

His production isn't much different than Toure once they got into SEC play. Would have been nice to have both though.

Facts. This thread is a pretty poor take.

We probably wouldn’t have had both if Wandale stayed would we?

Probably not. Not impossible though. We still need receivers.

I don't know why they wouldn't have gotten Toure given how piss poor the wide receivers were last year

I have my doubts Frost would have went out and got him, but if you could have got both we would still have the same record the way Frost coaches, so Wandale made a good decision.

People were concerned Riley would go pro after one year.

I heard that a lot about players that had no chance of doing so but who?

Who said it, or who is Riley?

Jordan Riley I assume
