Rivals calls him a 3 star, and they don’t hand that out as easily. Both rivals and 247 list offers from Charlotte, Navy, Tulsa, and La Tech. Rivals also lists offers from FIU, ULM, and Troy. He looks like a bowling ball.

Duda has 6 TDs so far tonight against Ehret including a 65 yard one. That was through 3 quarters. Both teams seemed to have left their defenses at home. 48-42 BTW heading to the 4th

Glad he's made his commitment. Will enjoy watching him play.

Seems like auto-frick up has gotten worse with the latest IOS update.

Mickey Joseph at work. Mickey may be at Nebraska after the changes are made. We shall see.

I would be shocked if that's the direction they go. Nothing against him, but Albert needs a marketable hire. He'd have to get them bowl eligible to get serious consideration

I think he meant Joseph may still be on the staff. He most certainly won’t be the next head coach.

Maybe we can hire Joseph in some kind of role to use his area connections.

Duda Barnes was supposed to be visiting Nebraska this week. I was hoping for a freak snowstorm but that didn’t happen. Nevertheless, he tweeted that nope, he’s still committed to Tulane. That was nice to see.

Honestly who would he be committing to there? I mean I get it, it's corn....

Barnes now reports an offer from Iowa. The weather isn’t any better and Duda might want to check out some Iowa message boards. They ain’t happy.

My daughter is the photographer for the Kenner Discovery football team and they are currently up 36-0 on BTW in the 3rd. Before I saw your text I just asked her “how’s Duda looking?” Before the game I told her to tell him that her dad can’t wait to see him play at Tulane :mrgreen:

Check that. The score I saw was reversed. Daughter texted me that BTW won 51-7.

Told her to find him and let him know the weather in Iowa is awful.

Forget the weather, their offense is really bad. Kirk could finally be on his way out.

I only think Kirk leaves if he refuses to fire his son. If he's willing to do that, he'll be able to stay. He's also responsible for some of the best Iowa seasons ever and an annually awesome defense

I doubt he gets fired. Probably reassigned to some cushy administrative position

The big ten west is pretty awful this year. Let’s hope we can hold onto this RB

I asked my daughter how he did and her response “I think he scored one of those 2 pt things”. I have to say that she is learning more about the game. She asked me if there is horse collar penalties in high school and I said I thought there was. She said “I should be a zebra because I saw one and they missed it”.

According to the BTW Max Preps account, Barnes had TD runs of 40yds, 70yds, and 35 yds. He did not score the 2 pt conversion, it was a QB run
