Nebraska footbal players transfering.
- Thread starter dafarmer
- Start date
I'm guessing it's a Campbell-esque house cleaning... I'm guessing not.
I'm surprised that it has taken this long...several athletes came into Lincoln under the Riley reign that were not ready (conditioning/work ethic) for Frost. Do not want players that don't buy into the "plan."
And it also just makes room for Frost to bring in more of his guys.
Especially some of the recruits who were brought in during the last few years of Riley's reign. They likely aren't the caliber that Frost, with his full hype machine, can bring in.
Edit: I guess they had good classes still under Riley. I am surprised they didn't win jack with them.

First guess, no. Second guess, still no.
Do find this "evidence" that Nebraska is "back" though.
Eligibility and behavior issues with their star recruit. LOL.

There is a LB that is transferring, Andrew Ward, who was recruited by ISU in HS. The other guys I don't think they will look at. They don't need a QB transfer. The WRs leaving are nothing to talk about and I think the other guy leaving the team was their starting center who is retiring from football.
Riley was recruiting fine. Top 25 classes. But totally different offense.

Behavior issues with their best players? Step 1 of recreating 90's Nebraska football complete.
Were they still bringing in top 25 classes the past two years? I wasn't paying attention so I'm surprised.
I'm guessing just cleaning house of guys who aren't buying in then, I guess.
If they had a decent OL leaving, then maybe. Maybe a good LBer. Other than that ISU is amazingly, for the first time that I can remember, in pretty good shape at the other positions.
Guess I have not heard a thing about the new kicker and punter. Has anyone else?

yeah, it is crazy. Either the evaluated that talent badly or they just didn't have good coaches. Or maybe some of both.

I wonder if their yearly football poster back then was made up of mugshots? @jstanz
In the B1G West no less!
Riley just wasn't a winning coach. His record at Oregon St was so-so at best - good years to be sure, but then the last 5 years overall he was under .500. Maybe he lost his fire, it happens.
Still surprised they hired a guy that wasn't hammering out W's consistently.
They should have seriously looked at Craig Bohl at the time. Maybe even Tressel.
