[Husker] McNeil & Recruiting

[Don Rietsch]

Can someone enlighten me why we have turned the best receiving tight end
(McNeil) we've had in years into an average wide out?  McNeil had the speed
to beat the linebackers but not DB's.  They are wasting his senior year.  I
guess it's because our starting receivers can't always catch the ball and
there must be a shortage at back-up.

 

Another question: Why aren't we recruiting more running backs and receivers?
>From what I read in Big Red Magazine they are only targeting 1 RB for 2011.
If he decided to go some place else we will have no RB in the class.
Burkhead, who I really like, is a very good straight line runner.  He has
desire, power and toughness.  If he could cut well he'd be a star.
