4* RB Rahmir Johnson is N!

[HUSKER HOT SAUCE]

Like i said earlier. The key with Rahmir seems to be that he can chabge direction w/o losing speed

Must be a NJ thing, as nowhere else in the country, do I know of a RB who can chabge direction.

I knew what you meant, just couldn't help myself.

How good was their starting running back that this guy couldn't get many carries his junior year?

Ameer has never been considered a speed burner

He is super quick and explosive, but he doesn't have great top end speed.

Great news! Welcome kid!

Wow . . . If nothing else, running back recruiting is BACK!!!

Great get. And . . . looks like there is more out there if we need it, but my guess is RB recruiting is done and we tell quality talent that the room is full at the "N".

Winning is coming back also. Nebraska is not only going to win, they are going to become a force again.

Something is just wrong as it isn't even Feb. and we have 2 RB commits. Top it off they are both really good.

Where did you hear that and what are they? Thanks

247 sports said sub 22 seconds in 200. I read elsewhere that his hundred time was 10.8 but don't know where I read that. That is Eric Crouch speed

Check out the thread about recruiting speed.

One service has him at a 4.6 40. That's not too fast for his small size, but I suspect Abdullah wasn't much faster in high school. You can make up for average 40 time at RB with quickness and explosiveness like Abdullah did.

Seems like Johnson is going to be slotted more for the Duck-R spot like Miles Jones. If I were Frost, I'd take another one if that guy is John Bivens or someone of that caliber. Nebraska loses two guys after this year, their top guy is a junior and Tre Bryant is an unknown quantity. JMPO, but I'd add another player. It's nice that their best recruiter, Held, can start to focus on other spots now too.

Well...alright. Been awhile since we recruited RB's.

Yeah, there is a lot of talent still on the board at RB. Nice problem to have. Of course, Johnson is capable of playing other positions. Hmm . . .

I guess that’s dependent on how you want to measure speed. 3 yard acceleration through a hole, 5 yard burst past LBs, or 10 yards at top speed in the open field, all of those can be greater measures than a straight line 40 time.
