Aaron Green to Transfer

[Greatest Fan of All]

I'm not sure that Bo is doing that....and the only way Rex would have a shot at Heisman is if Martinez improves markedly in his passing, opening up running lanes for Rex.

Heisman or not, if the other kids don't think they will get a fair opportunity to play and they believe they are as good as Green does, they will leave. We've had a few doing just that lately. Never used to see this sort of thing.

Was really thinking he'd have a good season this year

Not surprised, there's boatload of talent at running back. Reminds me of the old days.

[abominable snow man]

Best of luck to mr green, too.

Not really, just Rex and Ameer.

Wrong....Heard will move back to RB from what I am being told and Cross will be here in June...and Marrow will more than likely become the goal line big back...

I was really looking forward to seeing what Heard could do at corner. It is what it is... Good to have the talent available to fill the void

[abominable snow man]

Exactly.

[FCHusker]

Once again, we will be fine.

I will be back in an hour to re-iterate this....

Looks neither his dad, brother or Bo wanted him to leave....bottom line is there is more to this then folks know about or realize and it doesn't sound like it was anything Nebraska did wrong....

"It was a very difficult decision for him," Tony Green said. "He's very tight with his brother (Andrew Green) which made this even more difficult. It's also been difficult on me and his mother. We really wanted him to stay, but in the end he had to make his own decision. It's not mine to make. He's got to be happy. It just wasn't meant to be for him and he's got to make his own decision."

Tony Green said Aaron is looking at Oklahoma, Baylor, Texas Tech, TCU and Houston as potential transfer options.

Tony Green said it was very difficult on Pelini to see Green leave, because he showed so much promise this spring.

"Coach (Pelini) didn't want him to leave and I didn't want him to leave," Tony Green said. "Towards the end though (Pelini) was pretty understanding of his decision."

Maybe the hardest part though was for Aaron Green to break the news to his older brother Andrew Green, who is currently a junior cornerback for the Huskers.

"I would like to say he learned a little bit of patience, because he's not a very patient person," Tony Green said. "It wasn't a problem with Rex (Burkhead) or anything, he thinks the world of Rex - he just wasn't happy. He didn't feel like he fit in their system."

Well I wish him the best but it'll be especially painful if he becomes a star elsewhere.

You think they will jerk Heard around like that just to get limited playing time? I doubt it.

The others are all newbies though, after all.

[Warhorse]

Not the kind of stuff you like to see happen. Talent leaving feeling like they are being misused.

And you would know he felt "misused" how exactly? Since when does the "talent" get to determine how they are used??

[BARNUM]

The conspiracy theory side of me makes me think that this might be and indicator that Ron Brown is on his way out - when AG committed, it was all about faith and RB was a major player. This homesick story just sounds bogus

[Red Reign]

Really?....its going to happen....

Abdullah is not a newbie....

I won't argue that at all....

He doesn't....

[McLaughlin]

Can't hardly blame him since our coaches seem unwilling to let anyone other than the starters play (see Taylor and Rex) at key positions.

Exactly.
