throwback Posted January 7, 2017 Report Posted January 7, 2017 That game and atmosphere last night would be tough to turn down for any recruit. Hopefully this report is true! Nebrasketballer 1 Quote
kleitus Posted January 7, 2017 Report Posted January 7, 2017 (edited) When is he eligible? 2nd semester next year? Edited January 7, 2017 by kleitus Quote
Huskerpapa Posted January 7, 2017 Report Posted January 7, 2017 Hmm. I was one of the "naysayers." My concern wasn't the quality of his play or the quality of the person. My only concern is that next year's junior class is going to be large. It creates inequity in the classes. Perhaps that isn't important. We see what can be done with a lone senior and the majority of the players being underclassman. So welcome big guy! Bring us victories! Quote

A little front line depth toward a possible deep ncaa run doesn't hurt anyone. Never hurts having more bodies in the b1g. Recruiting wise.... I think it can be easier to recruit for a big class when you're successful. Mutual recruiting etc. Given that next year is likely a huge year for us regardless of this year... miles being all in isn't shocking. Nebrasketballer 1 Quote

Silverbacked1 Posted January 7, 2017 Report Posted January 7, 2017 I think this is kind of one of those if he is willing to come you take type of deals,we will worry about how it works later. AuroranHusker, Bugeaters1, busticket and 1 other 4 Quote
FredsSlacks Posted January 7, 2017 Report Posted January 7, 2017 this doesn't seem official yet. "The courtship with Nebraska and Georgetown transfer Isaac Copeland might already be over." "Received a phone call that the Huskers had effectively locked up Copeland, " Quote

If he gets his medical redshirt I believe he would sit next year with 2 years to play. If this happens wouldn't he we part of the freshmen class, or am I reading this wrong.

This, if he gets hardship he would be eligible to start next non con season. Looks like there has been reports that he's got word he'll get that. Not so sure on that front quite yet tho. Quote
Silverbacked1 Posted January 7, 2017 Report Posted January 7, 2017 Okay I need to ask because I haven't heard. How bad is his back? and when is his surgery? If we even know or can ask these questions? Quote

hhcmatt Posted January 7, 2017 Report Posted January 7, 2017 With all due respect to the guy with on twitter with a Rivals account, I'm gonna wait until I see something from either the U, Copeland, or a national recruiting guy. ShortDust and Red Don 2 Quote
ajb5856 Posted January 7, 2017 Author Report Posted January 7, 2017 So...Mike Schaefer apparently jumped the gun...sounds like Copeland left town without officially committing. He's headed home to talk it over with the family before deciding between NC State and Nebraska. I'll just shut up until there's multiple parties reporting a more definitive answer. Quote
