4* On3 Top 300 Texas DL Carlon Jones. N

I mean, there are always exceptions, not just at Nebraska, but at other schools as well. However, data shows that for the most part, stars matter. Bottom line is is, we can't miss out on talents like this and keep acting like it's no big deal.

and the exceptions always seem to happen at Nebraska?

We’re already at 27 commits with 2 more expected. The coaches already know who they’re targeting and unfortunately I think he was just odd man out.

A guy being targeted by Ohio State was processed out? That's your theory?

Feel free to go check out my later response. I couldn’t care less if I’m wrong, that’s just what I was told by someone I trust within the program. Nothing more or less.

In his press conference Rhule alluded to the numbers being tight and if a guy wanted to visit somewhere else, that was fine but his spot might not be safe. When this came down I kind of thought this might be what he was talking about.

I'm 100% certain this is what he was talking about.

Ohio State lost one today, so they might have a spot for Jones now. Note the money in the announcement - they are complaining about their NIL also.

No, they just cooled on one.

Well, essentially he is correct if NU decided him pushing back his commitment date and visiting other schools was a reason "let him go" as MR said in his press conference. But please continue as i'm confident you have the best theories.

Yeah but that’s the attitude fans have had for the past several years and it hasn’t worked out too well for us. Say what you want, but missing out on a 4* is a big deal.

No doubt, you always want to get guys that other big schools are looking at. If you lose him to Ohio State, Bama or Georgia, you likely lose a pretty good player.

There's a lot of good talent evaluators out there, it comes down to staff money and current state of the program.
The kids know this staff has it going on

Maybe there was a reason Rhule moved on. Talk of him wanting a bidding war. First Nebraska, then tOSU, and now USC.
