I tend to think the staff knows what they are doing....bringing in guys us "casual fans" have never heard of before sounds like the new norm now.

Zy Crisler JUCO People can say he is a 3 star recruit but Illinois and Southern Miss I think were only schools to offer him. So MIss because he grew up in Miss and local CC was closeby.

More recently 2023 QB commit Cal Swanson. This kid was not listed as a 3 star QB when we started recruiting him. He was offered by non Division 1 schools and people made a ton of ignorant comments.

BB and crew are trying to add quality to this program but also depth. Done an amazing job finding some needles in the haystack already.

Anyone have a list of recruits at the Virginia game?

I’m bored, so I thought I’d take a look at Neb roster to see how many IL high school kids they have on roster. Never too early to look for potential transfers. 😁. Pretty sparse.

WR Alante Brown — SO — Simeon and CT prep school. 8 catches for 87 yards this year; 14 catches overall.
DB. Jalil Martin — FR — Kenwood. No stats listed on ESPN.

Browns really good but Joseph might keep him. Would love to flip the kid to Illini

Looked at 24/7 and not much crossover recruiting wise between the schools. The following Neb commits had offer from Illinois

2023
Jaidyn Doss — WR from MO

2022
Janiran Bonner — WR from GA
Martin in my original post

2021
Latrell Neville — WR from TN (not listed on roster)

Wouldn't mind the staff getting involved in Dwight Bootle II if they are wanting another defensive back.

Anybody else annoyed with over use of the word "intriguing" when describing athletes

It fits hand and hand with some on this board saying we should offer someone in the 2028 class that is in the 7th grade :ROFLMAO:

Intriguing, catches my eye, interesting (have used and will use again)
