After Watching Dylan Raiola Up Close, Adam Carriker Talks About Just How Good Dylan Can Be! 

It’s tough because it’s very easy to see why Dylan was so highly recruited, at the same time, he could technically still be in high school right now. He definitely appears to be ahead of the curve. Are you all excited for football yet?!

I'm so glad to hear you singing Daniel's praises. His selfless efforts are a great example for all his teammates.

Thank you Adam for being real with us and not give us kool-aid bullshit..i really enjoyed the video content GBR 🌽🏈🌽❤

I believe that Kaelin should not be overlooked, period. He's stuck around and shown loyalty which is rare in today's sports climate. We've, literally, never had two quality QBs at the helm who are freshmen on the same squad that I can remember. Haarberg is also a loyal man as well. These qualities cannot be overlooked. Were I the coaches, I would utilize their strengths as a three fer, instead of a one/two QB system. Then you're not burning redshirts. GBR !

Living in west Tennessee...I've been a husker fan since 1982...love your show adam....GBR

I believe Dylan lived up to the hype in the spring game. With the way the defense was, one could argue he was set up for success, I’d argue you’re right, he also capitalized in a big way and that’s gotta excite fans for the future.

Yes, yes, 3 top receivers will do good things. I want to see all 3 QB’s do well. I’m glad to hear that DK will give DR a run for his money.

Adam I have followed you from close to the start and love your opinion! I just want to say love HUSKER football and I hope you’re right!!! GBR!!!

We have to surround him with the talent he needs to be successful... Running Backs and Receivers who themselves can take the heat off of him but....the number 1# most important thing he has GOT TO HAVE TO GET US TO THAT TOP LEVEL.....A OFFENSIVE LINE THAT WILL PROTECT HIM !

Yes, yes and Banks. Great show! I love your honest no bull approach. I agree all 3 QB'S deserve an honest chance and I know Matt will give them that! ❤❤

Looking for more and expect much more than last year! Potential for that appears phenomenal! Competition between the three, if managed correctly, will make all three better, more so than if each were starters on separate teams. Competition, competition, competition ... but in parallel, retention ... retention ...... retention!

Yes, Yes, anyone of those you mentioned!

Okay......now you got me super excited for the season to start. Is it August yet??? I honestly was excited for this next season anyway. GO BIG RED Posted this before answering the questions. YES, YES & Lloyd

Minter is a beast.

+1000. Force opposing teams to prepare for the option on a moments notice... Haarberg could be a pivotal player with 2 or 3 drives per game. I love the concept of bringing in two QBs on the same series. GBR

Hell yeah Adam, excited to say the least. He commits to Georgia and I was like wow. Then ever since I had to wait to see him enroll.i cannot wait to see him develop. Rhule has Nebraska looking up. Let's Gooooo GBR ☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️

Yes, yes, Banks.

You know that bit in a looney tunes cartoon where the character keeps stepping on the rake and it keep smashing him in the face? That’s what it was like watching our offense. I would like our offense to be dangerous to other teams and not us.

In a perfect world...Dylan starts 3 years, is good enough to go to the NFL. Then an experienced Danny Dimes starts 2 years.

When’s fall start…lol. Pumped!!!

who's itching for Nebraska football

yup. eliminate the simple mistakes . hopefully this new talent can reboot Nebraska football. a bowl game is all that's expected this season, been expected for a long time.

I think we will improve the quarterback play. All our money was invested in sims when he struggled our back ups had not had many reps with first string

I'm with you on the hill - the QB job needs to be earned. Not looking for miracles, just improved play over last year, especially in the turnover department. GBR!

10 wins for sure.

Nice take Adam. Well put. I believe you're right about HH having a stabilizing effect on the young bucks, giving them breaks during the games for whatever reason.

Yes, yes, Lloyd

Dylan is chillin . He can make all the throws. All we got to do is protect him. A productive running game will help him.

I can really appreciate the Brooke Berringer comparison

1. Yes 2. Yes 3. I honestly don’t know enough about the transfers at receiver, but I’ll say Jaylen Lloyd anyway 😉

Great show. Competition is a must. Last year they croened Sims.... need I say more.

Kaelin is giving me those TB “GOAT” super smart, a little lanky, and when he grows into that jaw, he might be hunky 😂 kidding aside I get Brady vibes from the young man.

Personally, I think we could win big with any of these three QB's. We are fortunate to be so loaded with talent at that position! GBR!

Glad we have more than one QB to be excited about

I think, when it comes to the qb position. We kinda know what we have with Haarberg. Talented but not high end talent. I think he'll be used situationally and should because he's earned it. But out of the first few games it would be a show in elevation in talent if both Raiola and Daniel had the chance to play before conference play. Mich like 90s nebradka. You'd hope who ever is starting is pulled second half because we're up by enough to get the others playing time and show what is there for the future.

Yes to all questions…. Banks

Yo talking development and legacy Quinn Clark...top recruit in his respective state dad played here and with the payers/coaches we have....look out dude is a future star

Expecting him to compare to Super Tommie?... that's hoping for quite a lot.. I hope he does .

Husker Nation would faint if Danny won the starting position. 😅 I wish the. All great success. Haarberg and Kaelin are a couple of classy dudes the way they've handled the Raiola hype. GRR

yes, yes, Banks. I just want the best quarterback on the field that gives us the best chance to win.

I believe a good line will either make or break a good quarter back or running back no matter who they are. Just hope we get better protection than we have in the past few years.

“I’m going to put a little pressure on you right now,” Magic Johnson said to Lonzo Ball. “You look to your right, there’s some jerseys hanging on that wall. We expect a Ball jersey hanging up there one day, all right? Good.”

I like his stature........solid. I like his demeanor........cool. I think he is safe for a few years at NU and will be injury free. He knows when to get rid of the ball. The only question is will those receivers get open for him.....but even more important, can they get a RB that move the ball. RB is the biggest talent deficiency at running back U (or is it tailback U) for YEARS! And we didn't get a single recruit this year.....and every RB on our roster has a bum knee or fumblitis or some other problem. Until they fix that it's good night gracie.

I feel the same way just like Brook Berringer. He’s quite like Brook B as well. I can see him filling in just like Brook did when Tommie Frazier went out with blood clots.

Yes

210th LIKE!

Yes, Yes, Neyor

Yes just don't give the ball away. I have no idea.

Adam love the show, but you apologize preemptively on your opinions. Your arguments are valid. You were a great husker and a good nfl player. I know people are sensitive, you’re the real deal brutha. No apologies needed GBR🎈🎈🎈

He’s 18 almost 19

Raiola better be really, really fast because B1G defensive lines have been crushing Nebraska O-lines for more than a decade.

100% agree. Heinrich is key to giving our young lads the room and space needed so they can breathe and grow confident. We need big shoulders at QB and Heinrich has that.

Yes, yes, Jahmal Banks

So what (if anything) can be learned from the Spring Game? Who is going to be a break-out star benefiting from having Raiola at QB? Jamal Banks from Wake Forest, Isaiah Neyer from Texas? Hometown guy Malachi Coleman? Demetrius Bell, Garcia-Castenada? TE like Fidone or Buerkicker?

I am and will continue to be a hold out on getting on the Raiola hype train or any other Husker hype. I am sick and tired of years of disappointment, so until I see the final product, the jury is out.

Here’s what I saw. Dylan is ready to start he is comfortable in the pocket. HH looked much improved also. Danny is great but not as ready as Dylan. If both Dylan and HH can stay healthy I would love to red shirt Danny !

No doubt we will have better QB play this year. I am hoping for and expecting much better play. It will help having the O line continuing to improve, more experienced receivers, hopefully not 7 or 8 starters on offense out injured, and better passing no matter which one starts.

Quarterbacks shouldn't be predetermined just like the 2020 election shouldn't have been predetermined.

daniel kalin brought to nebraska his 2 recievers fro his high school , i'm sure he can know them very well as well as him, trust

Top five in the Big Ten by the end of the year

As of a day ago, everyone suddenly talking about Daniel Kaelin.

The Huskers will be in the college football playoff this year.

to tell the truth I think we will see improvement on both sides of the field, so the question should be which group has improved the most from last year, if it's defense, they'll be in a class with Iowa and Michigan,obviously the back field and receiver groups will be better but it's wait and see. GBR

Yes Yes All 3 will be top receivers

He also the potential to be in the transfer portal in a year if his feelings get hurt.

Yes. Yes. So Riaola is not a runner, ugh! I’m excited to see what he can do, but in the BIG10 we need a good Quarterback that can run if needed.

All I want to say is, GBR, play ball!

yes,yes ??

So why does your shirt not say eat sleep Husker football!!! Just asking for a friend.

1) Yes 2) Yes 3) Lloyd

I believe Dylan can be the guy. What worries me is his O line failing him, per the norm as of late.

The bottom right player looks like Marcus Marietta.

Nebraska only has 3 potential starters at QB. Considering recent QB injury history on top of NIL/transfer portal, I think a team probably needs at least 4 QBs who could start. Not an easy task for HCs today.

not many freshman make divison 1 starting teams..rare

Herberg needs to do the Travis Kelce and go play tight end

Crazy he is ranked ahead of Alex orji... Although there are many questions about orji, Alex orji is known to be a FREAK athlete

Let's face the facts. Two weeks into the season and Nebraska will have 2 QB's in the portal. Then down to no options and hoping Coach picked the very best, and they stay healthy.

I can't wait to win the natty next year. GBR!

No (constant improvement should always be the goal for each position), yes and Jalen Lloyd

Unfortunately, if Dylan is not the starter, I do see him leaving. I hope I’m wrong!

1. Yes, 2. Yes, But concerned how Sims' issues could have gone unnoticed in practice in terms of his strong tendency to commit unforced errors. Whoever it was that decided to start him in the first two games last year exhibited exceedingly poor judgment. That person is presumably still somewhere on the coaching staff(?) and God forbid they are making any decisions about who starts this year. Also concerned that an 18-year old is "swapping protections". I don't even know what that means - but it sounds like it means that a coach somewhere had it wrong and it had to be corrected on the spot during a scrimmage by a high-school kid? I have reason to be hopeful, but there is a disaster scenario lurking out there where the wunderkind gets frustrated and hits the transfer portal in 2025. I hope that doesn't happen!!

Harberg is the starter I think

Harberg should be moved to TE with that size and speed.

In

Danny Dimes looks just as good imo

Quarter Back Play??? It all depends on the LOS..... A better LOS, then YES to all QB's ....

I wish coach would go after a field goal kicker and kick off person. He missed two field goals and kicked 2 out of bounds on kick offs

Remember no offensive line the blocks and blows open holes no offense. No Defensive line that stops runs and vaporizes QB’s , no defense. A lot of talk and talk all you want, no lines 3-7 again. Hope I’m wrong, getting tired of watching old Cornhusker football the last 20 years…..and I’m getting older.

Yes,Yes, & WAY too close to call.

Adam, it's time to let that hairline go, your at the point of no return.

What a joke sell your cement 🤣Without a Oline he will be on his back .QB is only as good as the oline

Zero chance Raiola doesnt start... in todays transfer age, you cant risk having him on the bench and him leaving... we dont have the luxury texas has where the starter is better than the top prospect so they can afford to bench the prospect

Carricker is losing coherence. His mind races...

Danny k is the next Kirk Cousins mark my words

Let the best player play at any position.

Yes
