A thought on "poaching" late in the recruiting cycle to fill out the class. It would be great to poach recruits from the likes of LSU, FSU, FL, USC, OSU...etc. However, I believe that this will always be tough for schools like Neb, due to the fact that many times, not always, but many times, this late poaching is also geo/regional based. That is, LSU was going after a Lousi. kid, Auburn after a FL kid..and this seems to play itself out as I look at the late visits across the nation. Mizzou getting a late visit from a RB (fm Mizzou) committed to OSU, Texas going after Texas kids committed to Oregon.
If there were high 3 star kids from Neb, the Dakotas, Iowa that were committed to OSU, FSU or LSU; Neb would stand a better chance to go "poach" a recruits from another high powered program.
