Nebraska Starting LT Leaves Team
Say the story on College Football Live earlier, but didn't see it posted here.
Starting Sophomore LT for Nebraska Tyler Moore is leaving the school for the fall semester and going back home to Florida. He's going to take classes at a local JC and then choose between transfering to Florida, FSU, or coming back to Nebraska.

Seems like a sound plan.

Multi-tasking

that was meant for WolvinLA2. He must have just been afraid to touch his reply button
August 13th, 2012 at 7:24 PM ^
I'm good for at least another 20 minutes.
August 14th, 2012 at 1:28 PM ^
haha. wolv, think we gotta get you a woman.
August 14th, 2012 at 1:31 PM ^
you can still let her do it, less work.
August 13th, 2012 at 7:24 PM ^
Well that's awkward then...
August 13th, 2012 at 7:09 PM ^
chances he comes back to Nebraska o/u 5% ?
August 13th, 2012 at 7:34 PM ^
Non-zero, but I'm taking the under.
August 13th, 2012 at 7:11 PM ^
Im never satisfied
August 13th, 2012 at 9:42 PM ^
It's a curse...
August 13th, 2012 at 7:16 PM ^
Yowch. That's got to hurt. Sorry Corn Nation.
August 13th, 2012 at 7:18 PM ^
August 13th, 2012 at 7:34 PM ^
He left the team !?
But he might come back next year ?
August 13th, 2012 at 7:28 PM ^
He'll get a better education at JUCO.

Minnesota starting RT Jimmy Gjere is quitting football due to the aftereffects of concussions. Apparently his first was in Ann Arbor last year, he missed seven games after that and decided not to come back after this summer.

Man, now we've got a better shot at beating Minnesota!
August 13th, 2012 at 8:19 PM ^
Maybe we can break 60 this year.
August 13th, 2012 at 8:23 PM ^
Minnesota Rouser at least once this year, since it'll get played when they take the field. Any chance we can limit it to once in two years?

...our first trip up to Minnesota might not be as easy as the old Metrodome days. November can get pretty nasty up there, we'll be coming off a couple of tough games and you know the Gopher crowd will be as excited as ever for the first visit from the Wolverines. Game could be a total trap & bite us in the ass.
August 14th, 2012 at 2:00 PM ^
are they sure it was a concussion? most gophers forget after they leave ann arbor.
they usually forget about the little brown jug!

“He is back home. He had some things he wasn’t happy about at Nebraska, and he’s going to come home to get his head straight,’’ Brian Moore said Monday.
Of course, it stings for Nebraska, but I don't think anyone could ever fault a kid for wanting to take a step back and reassessing his options if he so desires. From the sound of it, he wasn't happy, and I don't think he benefits from playing in that state, and indeed, Nebraska wouldn't benefit with him in that state.

This was a good way to go about a potential transfer. Take a semester off, get your head straight, but also take classes close to him. Kudos to Tyler Moore.
August 14th, 2012 at 8:01 AM ^
Yes, but would you really want to give a scholarship back to a kid who has already left once (just before the start of the season I might add)?
It would be slightly different if he took off after spring ball and just stayed home but if I were the HC whats to say he doesnt get unhappy again and transfers? Now, he's cost me a shot at 2 replacements players.

Michigan recruited Moore coming out of high school.
August 14th, 2012 at 9:24 AM ^
word out is he's homesick. It happens, they're still kids.
Also lost starter status last year when B1G play began.
August 14th, 2012 at 12:10 PM ^
Wonder if he'll be eligible right away if he tranfsers for next season.
