Why? What has suddenly changed? Obviously the people with in the sport disagrees considering they just got a coach who turned down Alabama and USC twice.
Go look at the top recruits to come out of the state of Nebraska. Last year the four best were only 3 star players and the top player went to Stanford. That left the other 3 players for Nebraska. All the other top players in Nebraska went to division 2 schools.
So, Nebraska got 3 spots filled with in state players. That leaves 23/24 spots you have to fill with players out of state, many of whom live in the south and don't wanna go to cold, middle of nowhere Nebraska. I'm just saying it's a tall order
Compare that to Tennessee(which most say has a lack of talent in state)
Tennessee produced 2 five star,7 four star and 21 three star prospects.
28 players from Tennessee ended up at Division 1 programs.
Tennessee landed 9 of the top 11 prospects.

Not any taller than it has ever been. When Nebraska was good they were producing loads of great lineman/fullbacks and every once in a while a superstar skill position like Eric Crouch, Johnny Rodgers or Ahman Green. Pretty sure almost none were highly rated recruits.
Also when has Nebraska ever needed to recruit the south?
