Re: 2021 Verbal: Cole Payton
You'd think a lack of Lefty QBs would have more to do with elite prospects going to chase the money playing baseball than not being able to play the position.
Re: 2021 Verbal: Cole Payton
Welcome to QB U Cole. Hopefully we can get you drafted some day too :welcome:

Multiple, but that isn't the point.
You said no snaps, you were wrong. Don't move the goalpost.

Re: 2021 Verbal: Cole Payton
A couple of interesting nuggets as he committed on the spot once the offer was made.
He was getting interest from a couple of D1s for being a possible linebacker prospect as he must be a very good athlete but he committed to NDSU because he wanted to play QB.
We had an offer out to a teammate Cade Haberman - who selected Northern Illinois a couple weeks ago.
https://www.hudl.com/profile/9248746/Heinrich-Haarberg - this one of the other QBs in Nebraska who just got an offer from Huskers. Fun to compare the two.

I appreciate that he wants to play QB and we will give him the chance. But if/when he gets beat out, he’s gonna be a helluva linebacker. To my scouting eye, his arm talent is mediocre but his athleticism is top notch.

He got into the 2011 Championship Game for a snap or two after Brock got his bell rung on a play. Brock either came back in after one play or for the next series, I don't recall exactly when. And recall Esley moved from the QB position not because he couldn't play it or wouldn't have been successful, he just had the misfortune of having a No. 2 overall draft choice a year behind him and would have continued to be the No. 2 QB. He just wanted to play and we were better as a team because of it. I wonder if he has a shot at the NFL as a linebacker if he comes in as a LB from day 1?
