Well, i'm not really concerned about if Woods was a Husker fan or not as a 6th grader, not sure why that matters. I can tell you he would be more of a fan of Nebraska if not for the losses and a couple recruiting missteps by our staff. But that's neither here nor there...
What i'm telling you is look at the trend. For the past decade, any kid (besides Noah Fant who we recruited as a DE and wanted to play TE) would have came to Nebraska if offered from Omaha. That includes the likes of Harrison Phillips, Daishon Neal, Michael Decker, CJ Johnson, Casey Sayles, Cole Fisher, Nate Skold, Bronson Marsh, Jon Lechner, CJ Zimmerer, Scott Criss, James Davis, Daryle Hawkins, all the way to 2008 where you get to Trevor Robinson and the Praters.
We better start following through in Lincoln. It's not because they aren't Husker fans. You have high school coaches with shrines to Nebraska in their houses telling them to hold off if they are going to commit to Nebraska because you need to make sure this staff isn't giving you lip service on how good they are going to be. I think that all goes to your point of better gameday outcomes. No shot that 2019 team should have been under .500. Kids notice that.
