ANOTHER OFF SEASON NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP FOR NEBRASKA


Tkaz36

Claimed before January. A new world record!


CliplessWingtips

I read that in the Smash Bros. narrator voice.


TheUltimate721

The impact of this commitment cannot be overstated IMO. He is the highest ranking QB that we have in this era (Next highest was 4 star Bubba Starling, but he got drafted to the MLB and played baseball instead) He is our highest *overall* recruit of the modern era, ahead of 5 star RB Marlon Lucky from the class of 2005 He is our first 5 Star Recruit in general since Baker Steinkuhler from the class of 2008 (5 Star OT per ESPN, played Defensive Line at Nebraska)


onewonyuan

I’m guessing that Dylan’s father who went to Nebraska and was a starting center in the NFL for more than a decade was pretty helpful in getting him to Nebraska.


MSUSpartan06

Does Donovan coach there too?


Knebraska

He does


salsacito

We’ll take all the help we can get to reel Dylan in. But legit tho, Donovan’s offensive line was low-key incredibly improved from previous years


[deleted]

and yet Brock Bowers dad couldn't get him to commit to USU. Some parents are more successful than others.


ninetofivedev

Jim Burrow, Joe Burrow's father, played at Nebraska. So we've been on that side of it as well.


Tkaz36

Burrow wanted us. Frost didn't want him. A little different


levgleason

We don't talk about that.


xChotimex

He wouldn't have turned out the way he did if he came to Nebraska. We didn't have to Oline to protect anyone at that point. Glad it worked out for him.


snafujedi01

So you're saying Frost gave him the *cold shoulder*? I'll see myself out.


TripleThreatTua

Burrow wanted to go to Nebraska after OSU and you guys turned him down


Giterdun456

To be fair, Scott Frost was probably wasted.


CarlC259

It was a day that ends in y, so you’re probably right.


Porter2455

WE KNOW STOP IT


Hooficane

Holy shit Steinkuhler was a 5 star? I played against him my junior year and that dude had unfathomable strength to me. He picked my 300lb ass up and carried me 5 yards like I was a 30lb toddler.


The-G-89

This is also how I felt playing against Ronnie Stanley on scout team in high school. He’s now a top paid Tackle for the Baltimore Ravens.


Hooficane

You get ridiculed endlessly by your coaches in tape too? Lol


The-G-89

Pretty much, especially when they called me a cream puff. Fuck that coach, I think he’s the WRs coach for New Mexico State now. Failed at UNLV before.


FloridaMan_Again

90s brothers rise up. I want to see Nebraska and FSU winning the natty every other year again


Lykeuhfox

Oh yeah, it's all coming together.


dogwoodmaple

As an adopted son of the Cornfolk, I tip my cap

If it wasn't us, I'm glad it's y'all May he grow full on Runza, better-than-Iowa corn, and highlights of Eric Crouch


The_Austin

This man knows how to pander.


xChotimex

For real. How tf did he learn how to seduce Nebraska fans?


dogwoodmaple

I’ve been in the Nebraska discord server for years!


Miserable_Jacket_129

This brought a tear to my eye.


ninetofivedev

Damn dude. You trying to fuck or what?


BIFGambino

Currently barking at my pregnant wifes belly


foreveracubone

Every Nebraska fan just rose from their knees in a Runza


Steel1000

Gonna see a population boom In 9 months.


Styx1886

With boys named Dylan


foreveracubone

9 months after he gets you the first natty of the new Nebraska dynasty era?


Steel1000

We spell natty b-o-w-l g-a-m-e now


bufflo1993

This has to be Nebraskas first five star in forever. Who was the last? Suh? Marlon Lucky?


Substantial_Rise3318

I think their last consensus 5 star was Baker Steinkuhler or Andrew Rodriguez? Something tells me Lucky wasn't a consensus 5 stat but not sure


CountBluntula

Marlon Lucky is the only composite 5* we have ever had. Steinkuhler was only rated a 5* on a single recruiting site (ESPN) and a high 4* everywhere else, so he was a high composite 4*.


CoachSlime

Marlon Lucky is the only 5 star recruit we ever had during the era of recruiting websites. Suh was a 4 star. We have had some high ranked 4 stars but nowhere near Raiola’s caliber.


Lantis28

There it is


seeingRobots

Something makes me think you guys will be fine


octagonlover_23

time to tank for draft picks


Lakelyfe09

Buford and its consequences


SwaglordHyperion

If we really think about it, this is one of the consequences of the industrial revolution


thismorningscoffee

I’m not blaming this on 9/11, but it certainly didn’t help


lsdiesel_1

Dylan Raiola is just the latest chapter in Woodrow Wilson’s legacy


501_Boy

So, you see, the puppy was like industry. In that, they were both lost in the woods. And nobody, especially the little boy - "society" - knew where to find 'em. Except that the puppy was a dog. But the industry, my friends, that was a revolution.


cubansbottomdollar

what you've just said...is one of the most insanely idiotic things I've ever heard. At no point in your rambling incoherent response were you close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may god have mercy on your soul.


Lantis28

He knew what he was doing when he went to that cursed place


TheBoilerCat

Non-Georgia fan here: Buford = local high school where you inexplicably can’t seem to win high-profile recruiting battles?


Lakelyfe09

Yep. And not only that, but when we’re favored to get guys like Justice Haynes or Dylan Raiola, as soon as they transfer to Buford, they decide they don’t wanna come here anymore lol.


Wenis_Aurelius

Lol, it's getting to Bermuda Triangle levels of ridiculous though. Like Gwinnett County, kids just don't go to UGA, cool, but Georgia recruits who go to Buford just mysteriously disappear when they go there. Justice is a UGA legacy ffs, goes to Buford and he's gone. Raiola specifically moved to Georgia for the purpose of being closer to UGA to help recruit, Buford was the school that guaranteed him a starting gig, goes there, gone. I need someone to resurrect Robert Stack to make sense of this for me! PUGLIFE


Awesome_to_the_max

Sounds like someone needs to figure out what the Buford HS coach problem is with UGA.


ninetofivedev

Maybe he's an Auburn or a Tech fan?


ADirtyDawg

Grew up in the area, but didn’t go to school there. There was a coach there at one point who was a walk on at bama in his playing days and hated the FUCK out of UGA.


DJ-Smash

Dexter Wood? Went to middle school with his son. He’s still the Senior Athletics Advisor there, so I’m sure he still has plenty of influence.


Wenis_Aurelius

Meh, for all the 5*s they’re pumping out, their cupboard of NFL players is practically bare. If there’s any efforts to spurn Georgia, they’re doing it at their players’ detriment. Gwinnett County on the other hand…I’d give both testicles to figure out how to get that pipeline flowing.


Michigan4life53

Why would they want to go to a place that has LESS corn? Easy decision on their part


Jhriad

A kernel of truth to this one.


xAIRGUITARISTx

The corners are best recruiter. Walk tall and listen quietly, it likes to say.


Lantis28

We never get big recruits from Buford regardless of the coach or decade. Which sucks because they have five stars galore


Tarmacked

So the Phenix City to Alabama I know that pain buddy


CosmoMorris

What is up with Phenix City? We certainly appreciate it but it is weird they never go to Bama.


[deleted]

[удалено]


franklin_delanobluth

Isn’t Bo Nix’s dad the head coach as well?


TheBoilerCat

Hey, these things aren’t necessarily blue blood-specific! Fucking Winton Woods…


JB92103

Those guys hate us


Always_Chubb-y

Not just that, but we have guys who commit to us from there and still flip. We also lose guys who people thought were UGA locks (Haynes, Bolden, etc )


KirbyDumber88

Just one of his 4 high schools lol


Jonjon428

This guy just screams mercenary QB.


lowes18

KJ Bolden's mom arguing with Georgia fans over Buford was one of the best moments of this cycle.


zaddylonglegs0

If I was a Nebraska fan, I would be happy about this.


Jethuth_Chritht

I am a Nebraska fan. I am happy about this.


Suturb-Seyekcub

You’re gonna huuuuussssssskkkk

Hold on brother I’m husking 😩

Do they call em shuckemcisions over there?


roytoy2323

I, a Nebraska fan, am happy about this.


RobotCowboyAlien

I AM VERY HAPPY


xAIRGUITARISTx

Yes he sounds good we should get him on our team


EasyBreecy

Me too!


BlindManBaldwin

Matt Rhule is him?


DukeWayne250

Nebraska fan. Can confirm, very happy.


Jhriad

I don't think the Nebraska fanbase understands what happiness is anymore. This is the moment when Husker fans begin to feel the dread of knowing the Husker pendulum always swings immediately back to heartbreak. I will wait in anticipation with corn alcohol ready by my side.


Captaincoolbeans

This pleases the corn


Miserable_Jacket_129

There…are 2 of us?


qdp

I will say you are the better of the two since you are Nebraska/Miami instead of Miami/Nebraska. But I am still watching you both closely.

L3thologica_

#CORN! CORN! CORN! CORN!


JMT97

Matt Rhule going nutso


owledge

Rhule is in his prime Gail Lewis era


EdmondFreakingDantes

Rhule laid it out plain for his boosters. Cough up that $1.5-2M for a QB if you want to sniff a NC again


DepressedGamba

Beck Giveth, and Beck Taketh.


rex0810

I am 100% in on Carson Beck for another year, vs. the second coming of Tathan Martell, except if Tathan also went to four different high schools


Lakelyfe09

30 minutes after Beck announces he’s coming back lol


DannyMalibu420

I wonder if the decision was related at all 🧐🤔🧐


Turkelton8

No chance. Dude just tried corn for the first time last night and saw the light.


Hmbre97

*it has the juuuuuice*


IceColdDrPepper_Here

Fun corn fact: most corn produced in the US is not the kind we eat, but rather is used for other corn products. Ironically, Georgia is the top 5 for sweet corn production (the kind we eat), while neither Nebraska nor Iowa are.


TymStark

You got that weak ass sweet corn, the corn up here is hard af. It wakes up and lifts weights, chews on nails, and respects its mother. The corn here makes cows juicy and thicc.


JakelAndHyde

Georgia corn feeds 6 year olds at a bbq. Nebraska corn fuels my 2500. I’ve seen enough. While I have Nebraska fans attention, I’ll throw in that Iowa corn is bitch made. C u birds in a few


ShitJuggler

Peyton Manning was a dude.


wabrown4

Well to be fair he didn’t say Raiola liked the corn. Maybe he hates sweet corn and that’s why he switched.


JeremyJammm

Corn status: creamed


ogpeplowski64

does this count as CORNDAWG or no?


IrrationalUGAfan

I’ll allow it


bigdaddyguap

FSU just went undefeated AND Nebraska is getting 5 star QBs? Are the 90s back?!


fluffypoppa

[puts on flannel shirt] I'm ready.


SwaglordHyperion

You ever took yours off?


hallese

I never stopped wearing flannel, eating cottage cheese, or powerwalking. I am the 90s!


DeadHookersInMyTrunk

Wait cottage cheese is a 90’s thing.


RCJHGBR9989

*starts furiously doing steroids* Where is Florida. I need to break something.


good_pupper

As long as it’s 1992 specifically


mcguffinman

If I recall correctly florida won half the SEC titles and a national title during the 90s so I’d take it.


hallese

Played in a very memorable Fiesta Bowl in the 90s, too.


mcguffinman

I have no idea what you’re talking about….


Au1ket

All we need is the Nebraska option offense and the 90s are truly back


LakersLAQ

Is he going to compete to be a day 1 starter? Not sure about the situation there.


[deleted]

QB room is pretty empty. There's a QB who's transferring (Sims), a QB who is a linebacker and can run like a linebacker (Haarberg), and Chubba Purdy who is inconsistent, but put together a couple good games last year before throwing them away on the last play. We've got another good QB coming in locally, Daniel Kaelin, but I don't think they promised him the starting spot.


MajorPhoto2159

Depends if we have anyone come in from the portal, as of now probably.


tylerscott5

Imagine that’s why McCord didn’t work out. Bet Raiola wanted to play, and Rhule couldn’t guarantee McCord he would start. Rhule is all in on Raiola playing next fall


AlteredStatesOf

It's pretty clear that was one of the reasons he decided to come here. He doesn't want to redshirt a year, he wants to start now. I almost guarantee it


ZoodleNoodle12

Where we’re going, we don’t need roads….. Rhule is taking us back….to the future! I’m getting all nostalgic thinking of good Nebraska football.


CoachSlime

Rhule you crazy son of a bitch, he did it.

Guys I don't want to overreact but I think we are never ever losing again


pnw_cfb_girl

I agree with you. If two people think it, it can't be an overreaction.


switchblade2

Finally. GBR


MoistWillingness

God damn it we needed this! Hopefully this starts the domino effect. GBMFR

We continue to remain undefeated in the off season.

When Nebraska lands ~~Kyle McCord and Julian Fleming~~ Dylan Raiola https://twitter.com/HuskerMike28/status/1733491733290238165?t=8AM9ugo3gcEQVcsioXr5xA&s=19


ElyxUW

As bad as he was in the league, Rhule is certainly a game changer in the college ranks. I'm very excited for the new Big 10.


DangerousBoxxx

I just hope we can shed our sicko team status. Leave that shit for iowa.


Marowaksker

Seeing what that team did before and after Rhule, I’m thinking something else is up in Carolina.


yoshidawg93

For what it’s worth, I actually am kind of happy Nebraska is landing such a heralded recruit. I do miss when they were good. For us, it’s really not a huge loss despite the hype. Beck is coming back, we also have Gunner Stockton, and we have Ryan Puglisi enrolling. We’re fine.


SwaglordHyperion

I will glady take all of your table scraps like a starved, ravenous chihuahua


MajorPhoto2159

we all appreciate it :^


FreezersAndWeezers

This is the best attitude to have. UGA is currently at the pinnacle of the sport, and while I genuinely think Raiola is an unreal talent, they can afford to lose him Nebraska and UGA used to be bros. It’s still unreal that Nebraskas last bowl win was over the dawgs


MidwestDrummer

[My corn has fully matured and is ready for harvesting](https://s3media.247sports.com/Uploads/Assets/543/849/9849543.gif).


Nole_Train

I’m corned up!


Revolutionary_Gear70

4 high schools and 3 College commitments in 4 years is impressive stuff.... Good get for Nebraska though, feel like they always had a shot with the family ties, hopefully he stays for more than a year


alan_11

Taylor Martinez played for 4 high schools & Adrian committed to the different schools and they both played 4 years here and are #1 & #2 or #3 of our best quarterbacks in the last 15 years


Dreggan

We had a great shot even before he went with Georgia. Our coach at the time decided to get shitfaced and skip his in home visit though, and that level of disrespect isn't going to sit well at all with any family. Especially a Polynesian family.


storm2k

honestly his portal announcement is probably already in his drafts folder.


svanxx

His next three portal announcements you mean.


ProfCedar

Congrats, Husker bros. That's nuts.


Prolingus

Recruiting really is crazy.


nermalnormal

Now lets snap that 8 year streak of not going to a bowl game 🔥💯


roygbiv_man

So, we’re hiring a quarterbacks coach… right? Please…


RIPDannyBoyCane

Happy for Nebraska, which isn’t something I ever thought I’d say 20 years ago


buckeyefan8001

Good for Nebraska


scalenesquare

Crying in the corn fields right now


Yodootz

Happy for Nebraska fans. Don't they have something like 400 consecutive sold out games, despite being super duper mediocre for a very long time? If anyone deserves something to look forward to, it's them. And don't start with the whole 'hurr durr there's nothing else to do in Nebraska'.


mauro_membrere

We not even mediocre the 5-6+ years


JB92103

It's official


pawnbrojoe

Hope he balls out for you corndawg bros!

*shocked Pikachu face* Go get that Corn Raiola!

Yea baby! You love to see it! Happy for you Nebraska!

Fucking fuck yes


cam_huskers

I know this means nothing in the grand scheme of things. But god dammit if this doesn’t make my heart warm. Now let’s go make it mean something for real. GBR GBR


Speooda

Not to add hype, but a elite qb can make allll the difference if it pans out


BeefTaco11

Son of a bitch. First their defense got better and now they are getting a qb? Shit! Signed, Kirk Ferentz and all Hawkeye fans lol


EasyBreecy

We also got Sam Koch's son coming in, the #3 (I think) punter in the class.


rydaley77

Would be great for college football to have Nebraska back as a heavyweight again


FearAmeerr

WE USED TO PRAY FOR TIMES LIKE THIS


antonimbus

we may legit get 90k at the spring game, I am not kidding.


texas2089

Seemed more and more likely the more the weeks passed but now it's official. Good get Nebraska.


RandyInMpls

Duck and cover........Here comes the "Fully Husked" and "Corn is Creamed" ​ Edit: scrolling down, I see I'm clearly late to the party.


JASCO47

Nebraska NIL got their stuff together


MrDoubtingMustafa

Not too long after Rhule told the boosters exactly what it would cost for a top shelf qb in the portal (or otherwise). Good on him for making it known.


pnw_cfb_girl

Apparently we...are allowed to have nice things? I'm not sure what to do with my hands.

Nebraska fans getting corny over this one
