He took a visit to Virginia Tech a couple weeks ago. Then when Nebraska went to visit him during a bye week, it wasn't even Whipple who did it.

I never liked his hire, and I've been consistent with that. I never understood getting a coach that has one leg in retirement. Especially one with a system that isn't ideal for the conference (IMPO).

He's a terrible recruiter. He got to Nebraska and zeroed in on a guy he's been recruiting for a while, all while neglecting an instate kid who is arguably just as talented. Also practically ignoring another instate kid in the '24 class that Nebraska had already offered. Not to mention bypassing more talented '23 options in the region like JJ Kohl and Avery Johnson. Why? Even if it had worked out for Frost, he wouldn't have been here more than a couple years. You have to let your OC bring his guys in, I get that and can't fault Frost for allowing his QB preferences, but knowing he was a short term guy, it never made sense. Seeing how he basically stopped recruiting anyone after Watson committed was ridiculous too.

He'll be gone no matter who the coach is next year. Guaranteed.

Do you think a new coach could flip Flores to Nebraska or is he really solid in his Okie State commit?

I think he's set on Oklahoma State.

It appears Pop Watson is a first rate dual threat quarterback. I am excited to see what the next coach can do for him.

Any indication if he’ll stay committed after Whip exits? It would suck to get dumped a couple weeks before ESD.

Also he hopes Rhule is excited about him, he sounds committed and has been connecting to other commits:

Matt Rhule’s plan for Nebraska football is not yet known, but whatever that plan is, Will Watson III hopes that he is an important part of it.

Especially with our qb room. Almost have to go to the portal if he decommits.

Looks like he's committed to the school and not necessarily Whip.

Good for him

Really good landing spot

Well bummer. He's a bit smallish, but I liked his arm talent. Hopefully we have a different plan.
