The Heinrich Haarberg fanboy who wrote that article is nuts.
Listen, I like HH. He stepped in and saved the season from falling apart when Jeff Sims blew up. But let's not kid ourselves. He was not ready for Big Ten football last season. Yeah, he had some great runs early on against sub-par competition. But B1G defenses smothered him and beat him up. With his lost fumbles and interceptions to TDs ratio, the writer was being incredibly generous when he called H's time as a regular starter "mixed."
The author talked about how Eric Crouch told Coach Rhule he couldn't sleep the night beforeI the game his entire freshman season. So, in other words, the writer cautions we should be very careful about starting a true freshman! Pardon me if I believe Dylan Raiola is a tad bit more mature for his age than Crouch was. As I recall, Eric left school and went back home when he wasn't named the starter at the beginning of the season.
I'm not anti-HH. I'm happy we have one guy in our QB room with Husker game experience. But Haarberg is not our starter this season.
