Michael Morkert

they are ranked in the top 25...we aren't

Terry Busch

not nearly enough talent and we are now out of the top 25 destinations for most recruits

Vance A. Herbek

No impact player as of now but that can change.

Stephen Young

national ranking says enough

Dwain Van Houten

recruiting 2 star kids, and mostly we are only getting 3 stars. look at Al, 4 and 5 stars!

Kurt Ivey

losing a recruit to ksu is had to take

Fred Derby

Can't land any big time recruits. 8th in the Big Ten. We'll never get better but everyone seems to be satisfied with mediocracy.

Michael Morkert

losing too many to other schools

Coaches make great players in college. Seldom do rated recruits perform well in college without great coaching. Tom Osborne proved that over and over.

David MacKay

Losing Clinksdale was a blessing in disguise...not only will he probably not qualify academically but he would have been a locker room cancer...Farmer jumping into rivals top 100 is icing on the cake.

Feature back is important to have but DEPTH is also CRITICAL. If don't have a feature back then either then depth chart is flooded with talent. But in the Big Ten you better have a GREAT 2nd and 3rd string to make it through the season. With EJ it helped he was so quick he didn't take huge hits

Terry Barker

Nebraska was always most stable when we had a feature back that can actually "carry" the team with his legs.

Ron Joseph

Nebraska in the past was successful with one top back. We've fallen on hard times because we haven't developed or recruited a great back. But the others need to be developed so we have a pipeline of backs like we use to have.

Roger Craig & Tom Rathman ring a bell ? Not only a dynamic duo playing for NU, but also for the 49ers !! YES we want multiple RB’s to rotate in & out to keep their legs fresh!! GBR 🎈

Look at the success in the playoff, the teams have 2-3 capable RB's they use to keep them healthy and offer the D different looks. Johnson was unique, most backs can't take that many snaps a season and stay healthy and sharp.

PJ SAid

Every good team, including the NFL, will rotate backs on a regular basis. This last year Nebraska should have used a 2nd running back more often - NEB is lucked out EJ stayed healthy.
