Roster movement

Does anyone else think the evaluation of recruits from Nebraska may be overly generous? It seems to me Fidone (even before injuries), Coleman, Maverick Noonan, Grant Brix, Dae'vonn Hall, all local guys were over rated coming out of high school. Is this a normal thing where a large percentage of top recruits don't pan out? Or at least notably underperform? I've seen where recruits' ratings go up after getting offers, and go up again after more offers. Kids don't change THAT much over 6 weeks.
Is it an expectation problem? After all, they're kids. Or does the Nebraska hype train lead to a bump in the ratings?
I dunno.
(I know a couple guys were from across the river, but close enough)

Still giving Brix the benefit of the doubt - not many true freshman offensive linemen play meaningful snaps. In fact, hard for any freshman to climb over all the older guys ahead of them on the depth chart. Rhule wants to develop. And we will just never know the impact of Fidone’s knee injuries.

Just my opinion on Fidone , but I think him catching balls with his back 90 degrees to the defense has been the issue. He needs to be running routes that have him moving across and down the field . Under satt and frost , in my opinion all of our TE’s have been misused. Those guys are not ever going to be a miss match unless they are down field at least past the LB depth before the snap
