Just a couple of thoughts.
First, I think we're feeling the pain of having gone all in on DGB. We hardly recruited WR's in his class and it would be his class that would be juniors and seniors next year and the year and the year after if they had red shirted. The pain is all the more deep because there is no DGB this year.
Second, there have been over 150 offers extended for maybe 20 spots. By just the numbers, we're not going to hit on almost 90% of the offers. As for the JUCO WR, I would have liked to see someone with more experience/maturity, but we do have anywhere from 2 to 5 WR's in this class, depending on where these guys ultimately play.
Final thought, I'd rather see Zanders move to WR than land a JUCO player at this point. He's had a year in the system. Is a Missouri guy already. And is probably as electric as anyone we could get in the JUCO ranks.

I agree he could be a good WR, but from what I have read on PM, it's Hosick all over again. He wants to play QB and doesn't want to move positions. We still have time in this class, but I think you will see Mizzou try and pick up a JUCO WR. I can't think of any team who will lose the amount of production and depth at WR like we will that has been successful the following year. We've had too many misses at WR and DE the last few classes and it's finally catching up with us.

Brad Smith needs to talk to the young man.

Well, there was that one team that lost 3 starters at WR and are 1 win away from another division title.

Hale Hentges is visiting Mizzou on Friday for the game. This is an unofficial, he plans to OV still in January. Hopefully we show him what he wants to see and we can all have a merry flipmas!

There is some chatter concerning the Davis twins possibly jumping from Nubs to Mizzou. It's just chatter right now. Just passing along.

Where did you hear that?
Posted on 11/27/14 at 10:33 pm to JesusQuintana
It's been posted on PM as well.

That's surprising.

And thanks for passing that along. That would be a huge area of need IMO. Won't get too excited yet, but good to hear.
JUST WIN BABY!!!!!!!!!

From what I've seen, it seems they feel Pelini is on his way out soon, and there defense vs how good ours is. They have meet with Andy Hill several times over the past several weeks/months and have kept in contact with the Mizzou coaches. The coaching staff at BS is also pushing them to Mizzou per another poster. It was mentioned that Drew Lock has been talking to them about Mizzou a lot too.

Always good to hear that, even if they don't end up flipping.
Lock doing more work.

Neb will be in full meltdown if they lose to Iowa on the road this weekend.

Nebraska in full meltdown? This is the first day of Xmas!
I love that so many awesome players are considering flipping. I t says a lot about how far the program has come.

Yessir. Maybe it's taken two years of high level winning in the SEC to start turning heads.
Whip that Arky arse today, M-I-Z.
