Lincoln Jump Okay shawna Nebraska go shoppingfor transfers over the weekend gets a couple.
I have a question about Isaiah andNayer the transfer from Texas. I'm
wondering about his situation. Big firstyear at Wyoming and then he transferred to
Texas. Injured to Knie missed allof twenty twenty two, but he only
(00:22):
played in one game this past year, the first game against Rice, got
one pass, otherwise he was holdinga clipboard the rest of the What happened
in twenty twenty two, I mean, he was the hottest receiver in the
transfer portal. He had USC inTennessee and Old Miss in Florida, obviously
Texas, so you name it.And he was looked at to possibly be
(00:44):
the number one receiver for Steve Sarkisianthat season, and then he got hurt,
got healthy this year and things.I talked to him when he committed
on Friday night, and things justnever got off the ground. He wasn't
heard or any signs of the injury, so that did set him back there.
There's no question I think he's lookingfor a fresh start. This would
(01:06):
be a six year of eligibility.Now he could get a seventh year.
If he wants to play another year, he will be able to. But
he told me that his plan isto play just one more year, hopefully
in college football. See and that'sfine for Isaiah Nayer. I'm not sure
what it means for the program becauseonce again, what is the message set
to Lloyd Dawson Coleman, And what'sthe message set to the high school recruits
(01:30):
that we're bringing in a guy,a transfer guy. I know the receivers
have a lot of growing up todo, but what do you think this
effect will have on the locker room? Well, I don't think it should
have too much of effecting in tonight'sNational championship game. There's zero true freshmen
that our starters are really playing significantroles for either team. It's a different
(01:51):
game right now in college football.It's an older game. I was a
voter this year for Big Ten Freshmenof the Year and Newcomer of the Year,
and it was a stounding to methe lack of impact young players had.
You have to have older players tocompete in this conference. You know,
Malci Coleman is a relatively new youngfootball player. Jalen Lloyd was never
(02:14):
I mean he was a raw footballplayer that still needs development. You can't
win in this league with just thoseguys next year. You need bigger physical
bodies. They're only veteran receivers theyreturn that are older. Besides that true
freshman group are Alex Bullock, whowas a walk on in, Isaiah Garcia
Castaneda, who's coming off back toback season in knee injuries. You cannot
(02:38):
go into a year with that beingyour only receivers, and especially the lack
of physicality and size that you needto win at the line of scrimmage and
get off the line of scrimmage inthis conference. Okay, same thing with
the transfer from Morgan Dante Dowdell.This is a very very high profile recruit
who rushed at seventeen times for ninetyyards for Oregon this past year. Why
(03:01):
would he leave Oregon? Well,they returned all their top backs and you
know, he burned his red shirtthis year. He played seven games,
but the path to winning the jobwas he going to change based on who
they returned there? So he wantsto go somewhere with a better opportunity and
(03:22):
hopefully get in the rotation. You'renot going to have a Bellcalt back,
I mean a leading back in theconference this year average about seventeen carries a
game. Thirteen to fifteen is probablya realistic carry number for your top back
on a team right now based onthe metrics in the Big Ten Conference.
So you need about two two anda half guys a game that can do
(03:42):
different things for you in the backfield. Gabourbin Junior coming off to you know,
a second season inning injury, RamirJohnson battles injuries, Emma Johnson was
elevated and played this year. Theydon't have a lot there, so this
makes sense to me. They didn'ttake a high school back in twenty twenty
four. Keywan Lacy switched to MissouriQuinn Ives is a very very late take
(04:04):
a year ago. You know,I don't know if they look at him
as a difference maker. So thisone, you know, when you look
at that room to get a youngerguy now that has three years or four
years to play. Three was bigthree transfers, none of them offensive lineman.
And I'm not a super super youknow, completely totally uh you know,
(04:27):
coach level observer of college football,but I do know what offensive line
play looks like, and I wouldthink that getting a guard or two with
some experience would have been helpful.It's easier said than done to find the
lignement. I mean, I thinkwe've seen that play out. You know,
they got Ben Scott a year ago. That's probably the best portal ligneman
they've gotten. But you know they'vetaken some others that just haven't contributed at
(04:49):
all. That is an extremely toughposition just to bring in a new body.
Rule will say that you know wedid. We did our job in
the portal have been Scott. Wekept Bryce ben Hart in the program for
another year. Pro Hosca's back,Justin Evans Jenkins got some valuable playing time.
(05:11):
Obviously, Corcoran returns, then SamSledge is back. I mean,
I think they've got enough there rightnow. I mean, they the only
guy in Ethan Piper could be back, but I'd say it's a long shot.
With the recovery, He's gonna haveto go on his knee. But
you know, I think they wouldrather build it on that position group with
younger guys up because it's so hardjust to plug in offensive lineman from the
(05:33):
portal because there just aren't very manyof them at that position. Forever.
Reason got a long time head coach, Dana Holgerson talking apparently to Nebraska and
Matt Rule about joining the step.What would that role be, Sean,
That's a great question, because youknow there's still has not been any changes
made on the offensive coaching staff,and you know everybody's been active on the
(05:54):
road recruiting. So could you know, if it's not a positional role,
would it be an analyt role?You know, it's really hard to say
what that would be or you know, because I can't imagine Dana Olgerson if
he came as a position coach notbeing a play caller. He's one of
the best play callers out there,you know. And if that's the case,
what kind of movement would you haveto make on his coaching staff.
(06:15):
Well, he didn't make. Hedidn't call enough good place in West Virginia,
but you know, Texas. Butthe bottom line really probably is this
John. I think Matt Ruhle wantsto build up a little depth on his
coaching staff because you really really dobenefit from having somebody as an analyst then
be able to step into an assistant'srole rather than go through the process of
hiring somebody from somewhere else. Soit seems to me this would be a
(06:39):
thing where he goes, you're firstin line for the next big gig if
you take this analyst job. Probablyso, Sean. Thanks Sean Callahan,
our Husker insider a live in Lincolnwith us this morning and whenever big red
news breaks.
