Huskerpapa Posted November 14, 2012 Report Posted November 14, 2012 Has anyone heard recruiting news on this 7 footer. He is a big kid out of Memphis and allegedly has the Huskers on his list? http://rivals.yahoo....-Edwards-131220 Quote
TheKamdyMan Posted November 14, 2012 Report Posted November 14, 2012 no clue but thats one skinny dude for 7'0'' Quote
FredsSlacks Posted November 14, 2012 Report Posted November 14, 2012 I want to say this was one of Doc's recruits, but i can't remember for sure. Quote
Huskerbb73 Posted November 14, 2012 Report Posted November 14, 2012 no clue but thats one skinny dude for 7'0'' It shows him as 250. Is that not right? That doesn't seem too bad for 7' Quote
TheKamdyMan Posted November 14, 2012 Report Posted November 14, 2012 I saw another website that had him at 225 but who knows when it was from. If hes 250 thats better. Quote

hskr4life Posted December 21, 2012 Report Posted December 21, 2012 You think we could get this guy and Atewe?? Quote
MandRHusker Posted December 21, 2012 Report Posted December 21, 2012 Are we actually recruiting this guy? He was also listed last year as having interest in Nebraska. Quote

Don't know, I guess that is what I am asking. The site that I included said we offered and were "warmer." I have no clue, that is why i posted this inquiry. Quote
MandRHusker Posted December 21, 2012 Report Posted December 21, 2012 I have my fingers crossed! I don't know anything about this guy but he has great measurables!!! Quote
Norm Peterson Posted December 21, 2012 Report Posted December 21, 2012 He's a Memphis kid and, according to that site, holds offers from Memphis and Tennessee. And he's considering us? Why? If that's really his offer list, then he's the kid I want right now to finish this class. If that's a real offer list and if he's really 7-0 and 250#, then sign him up as quick as possible. Edited to add: According to Rivals, he does have offers from Memphis and us as well as Auburn, Arkansas and some others. No Tennessee offer according to Rivals but I'm not sure how up-to-date they are on offers made or pulled. In any event, the Memphis offer was at least confirmed by Rivals. And, according to Rivals, we're in the picture as well. Quote
Norm Peterson Posted December 21, 2012 Report Posted December 21, 2012 Kind of an entertaining discussion about this kid on a Memphis Tigers discussion board. One of the posters said about Edwards that, from what he was hearing about the kid, "he couldn't play dead in a western movie." Others were saying bad footwork, bad hands. Here's an especially concerning quote: "His footwork is bad, yes, but at this point his number 1 biggest problem is his hands. I am not sure, maybe people can improve in that regard but you rarely see it. From my viewing experiences, bad hands are bad hands." Which was followed by: "Actually, his hands and footwork didn't look terrible. His motor is stopping him right now." Link: http://csnbbs.com/showthread.php?tid=584511&page=3 Quote

Norm Peterson Posted December 21, 2012 Report Posted December 21, 2012 He may be clumsy, but at least he's slow! Kinda like my golf game. I don't hit it straight but at least I'm not hitting it very long. Quote
