I'd like to see FAU have the cojones to offer these four star kids because you never know who ends up on their short list or for what reason. Besides, I think it would impress recruits with offers from us a lot more if they know FAU focuses on recruiting big time players.
I'm sure the argument against this is, well, then you tie up a scholarship in purgatory while you wait for these blue chippers to make up their minds… but you kinda don't since programs typically extend more offers than spots and take the best person available to accept.

Offering 4 star kids turns away the 3 star kids that is why we dont usually do it. If you are a 3 star RB you realistically know you will get playing time at FAU now if theres a chance you could be playing behind a 4 star RB then you are not guaranteed playing time anymore…but in Pelini we trust things are looking up
I disagree. Chances are the 3 star RB has no idea who we've offered and who we haven't. Plus lets say the 4 star says ok I'm going to sign with FAU the 3 star may say well I played against that 4 star in high school and he had a much better offensive line than I did but I think I'm better than him and I'm going to sign with FAU as well and prove to everyone that just because he was rated higher doesn't mean he's better than me.
Plus, there's different kind of RB's. The 4 star guy may only be a speed back while the 3 star guy can catch out of the backfield and has the ability to run through people but isn't the fastest
My two favorite teams are FAU, and who ever is beating FIU!

Rivals = 0 stars
ESPN= No listing
Scout= No Listing
Now I dont really have an issue with it. If Coach sees something fine, but it appears NO one else has.

Gotta cut him some slack until we see a team full of most of his recruits play
