Been thinking about this since last night...We lost to Penn State due to poor performance, the ladies didn't have their A game on a critical night...
Now take a look who had career nights...Jureivciuos and Mendleson...Two former Huskers who practiced with every one of our starters except Landfair all last season and both were highly rated recruits.
This is why the transfer portal is both good and bad. Penn state had a huge scouting advantage at home because of the transfers. Might have been the difference on the outside blocking in a title match game.
Flip side neither transfer plays significant minutes at Nebraska, most likely, this season. Both were probably HIGHLY motivated to get back at Nebraska for letting them leave and they showed up.
It bothers me that a team can just reload using the portal, and using conference members talent, very quickly, I also feel for any athlete stuck if they have starting aspirations. Don't have a solution, just felt a little dirty last night using our transfer against us.
