Over on that other board Robin provided an Elbert update stating that he going to put out his final list on Thursday. We already knew that but then there's this nugget. Robin text Elbert's AAU coach

Saturday, September 7, at 1:00 p.m., Nebraska volleyball take on Georgia; at 5:00 p.m., Nebraska football takes on Southern Miss.   If I was Tim Miles, I'd be tempted to make sure Elbert sees those

Maybe high school isn't for him because he can't punctuate sentences yet.

He said he really enjoyed their football game and loved how it went, just wait until the weekend and he experiences the huskers environment. Granted I have not been to a G tech football game, but you got to figure ours is going to be a total 180. He's going to love his visit and with his new "four" short list that he stated, I think our major competition is OSU. We have to do everything we can to lock him down before he gets to that visit. I'm hoping he ends up here, but I don't know.

I would agree our football enviroment might be better than Gtech but I could see him getting WOW'd more at OSU's football game enviroment than NU's.  I just hope that fact that he already has a relationship with one of our assistants coaches will go along ways along with the new facilities which are better than OSU's.  I'm keeping my fingers crossed as you'll see my running up and down O street screaming if we land this kid.

I think that I would be joining you in the O street run, along with some others from here!!

It would seem of those 4 teams, GT and Nebraska have the best opportunities to offer in terms of needing big men.  It would be odd if he wasn't our #1 priority.

Georgetown is full on scholarships unless someone is going pro next year, which is possible.

Ohio State possibly views him as a backup plan to better centers.

 

I'm not sure I like our odds for signing him if we don't get him to commit this weekend.

Looking at OSU's football schedule, the only game on there between now and signing day that will be a better atmosphere than whe he'll see in Lincoln on Saturday is on Sept. 28 vs. Wisconsin. The two gamedays will be very similar, it shouldn't put one program ahead of the other. The only reason OSU would stick out is due to a recency factor. Both will blow him away him if he was "wowed" by Georgia Tech.

Interesting take here on Elbert Robinson by Casual Hoya. They seem perplexed as to why he would be wasting official visits on schools like Georgia Tech and Nebraska when Georgetown has been at the top of his list for a long time with Louisville and Ohio State being the Hoyas main competition. They ignore the Kenya Hunter factor and don't mention that Elbert recently cancelled his Louisville visit.

He may schedule a Georgetown official but as of now I'm taking it as a positive that he hasn't scheduled with them yet and he has for us.

Another positive in my mind is that Georgetown's class is full (yes they can still over sign by 1) and Elbert may be the backup plan at both Louisville and Ohio State.

Does anyone know what day he gets here and when he will leave?  Was curious if will be here in time to attend the NU volleyball home match on Friday night as well as NU football game on Saturday.  Any know the schedule for this weekend?  I would hope we pull out ever red carpet we have for this kid and keep our fingers crossed.  He said he wants to sign in November.  We're competiting against the "who's who" in college basketball for this recruit.  This would be a landmark signing if it happens.

I like how he's scheduled to be at TAMU for the Bama game.  Doubt he ends up being an Aggie, but what a perfect way to take advantage of the recruiting experience.  That will be the best environment and game he witnesses, regardless of where else he may go. 

 

Also, I think the Hoya folks are a bit too dismissive of Nebraska's chances, given that a definite reason as to why he was/is a Georgetown lean was an assistant who is now in Lincoln rather than D.C.

Gosh, I love reading stuff like this from other schools' fans.

I thought the volleyball match was on Saturday.  See my earlier comment about tall girls in spandex.

Volleyball match was in St Louis

 

 

I did see your earlier comments on the tall girls in spandex.  Being a Vball season ticket holder, that is definitely a strong recruiting tool to use.  The first home Vball game is on Friday night so was hoping he was going to be able to make for that as is it will be a very good atmosphere as well.  There is also a home Vball game on Saturday afternoon at 1pm so maybe they can catch some of that as well and then head to the football game.  Heck, let this kid in the woman's locker after the game if that it what it takes for him to sign.
