Poll Better Job: Wisconsin or Nebraska?

[fishinabarrel]

You don't have to be a psychic to look at CFB and see Nebraska will never be able to compete recruiting with the top programs in today's CFB.

7 players out of 20 currently in Ohio States recruiting class for 2023 from Ohio or a neighboring state.

8 out of 21 and that's with me including an Illinois kid.

It was a coach who started that type of recruiting for Ohio State and he was able to do it bc Ohio State is a blue blood.

Saying Nebraska couldn't strike fire and do the same thing and start recruiting heavily nationally is short sighted.

It is only repeated because Nebraska fans so desperately want to believe it isn't the truth. It isn't a "coincidence" that all the top recruiting schools are located in or on the border (in clemson case) talent rich states

It is also why I wanted to wager Red Alert that no big name coach is coming to Nebraska, because the top coaches KNOW it is an uphill battle in the most important aspect of college football.......recruiting.

Drink!!

Here is Nebraska's issue. EVERY SCHOOL has donors. Hell -- Michigan had alumni fighting with each other to see who'd pay the $1+ million a year to send the football team on glorified field trips around the world.

Texas A&M has bought an entire recruiting class and continue to buy players. Tennessee paid $8 million for a 5 star QB recruit.

Are you saying Nebraska is holding off and waiting to unleash their NIL fury on the CFB world?

You really make some stupid assumptions. You do realize you repeating the same four things over and over.

Names of these delusional Huskers fans for the 3rd time? Again you have none! Just a stupid theory ratting around in your head that your running with but we are not playing that stupid game with you. You’re in a circular argument with yourself but you haven’t figured that out yet.

Wisconsin as a state has double the football talent of Nebraska. Plus, if you took the Nebraska job, you would need to live in Nebraska

It thinks it’s dapper using the same buzz words & catch phrases like a worn out record.

You guys are lucky you found a lifer who actually wants to wither away in Iowa City. Where is Iowas big to do place - the field of dreams? Yes it’s a corn field.
Lincoln is 45 minutes from Omaha which has a larger population than Detroit. What’s Iowa biggest city again?

Come on now -- Ohio State is the only P5 in the state of Ohio. Actually, I take that back, now Cincy is P5 too -- but the state of Ohio is the most talent rich state in the Midwest.

Nebraska has NOTHING. In the past 10 years, the state has produced a whopping total of 7 or 8 four star recruits. So they have to rely almost exclusively on recruiting nationally. So it won't be new, but what they end up getting are the leftovers. I don't think people realize how far back Nebraska is to even top 10 recruiting programs. They have signed a grand total of 2 five star recruiting in 22 years. Two.

I just did -- neither you or red alert will admit that the days of Nebraska being elite are over and the realistic is goal is to simply try to compete with Iowa/Wisconsin.

Did did you know Sewer City Iowa is larger than Iowa City? So is Davenport, Cedar Rapids, and of course Des Moines with a population of 213,000.

I just pointed out to you they aren't getting that many kids from Ohio. Go back to 2010 and 14-18 recruits were from Ohio or a direct border state. Now it's under 50% every year. Michigan's recruiting classes are practically the same way now. There is zero reason why Nebraska couldn't break out and start getting top rated recruits from around the country

I've tried pointing that out to him/her on numerous occasions.
He/She just goes into Rainman mode.

Here's a post showing that Ohio St recruits nationally and only two Ohio St recruits could be considered from the deep south.

Tennessee or Nebraska?

I hate to agree with you because I think there is some trolling effort against Nebraska but the B1G tends to struggle to produce great title contenders. All of the energy seems to be sapped up by Ohio State. I think it is easier for Nebraska to win 9-10 games and finish in top 15 than...

Roughly 40-50% is a huge number -- that is 8-12 kids per recruiting class. If you are signing blue chip recruits which is what the overwhelming majority of OSU's roster is -- over a decade, that's 80-120 kids. Over the last decade, the state of Nebraska has 7 or 8 blue chip recruits TOTAL, not 7 or 8 per year.

So is it your opinion of you took those 6-8 kids from Ohios region out of Ohio States class they wouldn't replace them with a kid from somewhere nationally? Or if you dropped that 6-8 down to 2-4.

It's not going to happen overnight, but to say it NEVER will happen is dumb

There is nothing rain man about it. It is simple math. Ohio State has signed 5 five star recruits and 20 top 200 recruits from just the state of Ohio since 2018. If you go back further, they sign even more of their talent from in state.

That isn't and will never be an option for Nebraska, so they have to battle all the big boy programs for any recruit they want and the fact Nebraska has signed exactly one 5 star recruit from outside the state of Nebraska since 2000 -- they don't win many of those battles.

But hey -- remember the 70's when Nebraska was the only school with a strength and conditioning coach?
