NU was doing better in the big ten with Bo then they had done the last few years while in the big XII. Tommy wouldn’t let go of his grip of the FB team and his time had passed. They started changing coaches and styles enough that their recruiting was all messed up along with their areas.
There’s a decent correlation between recruiting rankings and success.
Its not the end all be all, its important to a point. Schools like Iowa and ISU have to find the gems and coach them up.
SIde note just watched the Izzo speech, solid speech.
Yeah it's pretty obvious Nebby's player development has sucked big time.List of Nebraska Cornhuskers in the NFL draft - Wikipedia

So recruiting rankings matter if you are changing coaches every few years and they are using different schemes and prioritize different area? How valuable is a high 4 star pocket passer QB if his second year the new coach wants a dual threat? You the. Have lineman set up to locket protect but now you want more road graders.
Yes that’s the reason. Nebraska is getting better or equal talent now running more of a pro style offense than they were running the wishbone, but putting less players in the NFL. The talent is there but the coaching is missing. Because it’s not an NFL scout’s job to spot talent or anything.
I didn’t read that as academics over athletics.just that they value it.
NU was and is a good fit for BIG, but could they have gotten better? There’s an opportunity cost to NU.
There are rumored ACC 4-6 schools at various stages of looking to move to P2. BIG Presidents would approve UVa, UNC, FSU, and ND, potentially with Stanford and Duke on reduced shares.
FSU they mad, good luck getting unequal payment distribution. You think BC, WF, etc will ok that? No way in hell.
Hey. They have to do something. They are a brand for christsakes
According to CU, if FSU hires Prime, they are worth 50MM more per year
Imo easier to list why they wouldn’t, which is distance.
Likely moot as SEC will go safe and choose SEC.
FSU had the opportunity to join the SEC in 1992. They were approached, but they preferred the easier ride in the ACC (in football) when they were a dominant program. They made a terrible short-sighted decision and are paying for it now.
I can't believe people still think this way.
Year in and year out look at the top teams how that goes with recruiting rankings. Heck, Iowa is around a top 25-30 recruiter. Combine that with playing bad teams and they win 8-9 games/year.
There was noise when aTm left they might be joining the Big12, never really heard how much that was actually a thing or just noise.
