is it similar to noodling and grabbing a snapping turtle?

No.  You'd be more likely to get the tail end, and it's got a short tail and strong hind legs.

Wombats have reverse pouches.  The opening is toward the tail rather than the head.

I remember Mike Rowe on Dirty Jobs did a segment on Noodling.He was with some Noodler who sold catfish to restuarants.These good old boys had a lot of fun at MR's expense.For instance they'd show him how to get in a squating stance by a rock pile or stump getting his hand under there.After he was in position these guys would throw these quips out there like."Oh by the way watch out for snapping turtles - that'll end your day right there" or "Kinda sux when you're bent over and a water moccasins latches onto your backside" Talk about nervous laughter,not sure I want to go noodling.There were even wominz doing it

It's so mama doesn't get dirt in the pouch when she is digging.

Nebraska talent for 2021...  I have not kept up with local recruiting and frankly have not invested in UNL sports as in the past.  However, I did ask a few people that I know still keep up with recruiting.

Minn flat out outworked UNL for Dickerson.   Johnson wanted to go out of state and his dad (legacy) was the main reason UNL finished 2nd.   The local thoughts as expressed to me is he did not want to follow his dad but create his own path.    

I know there is a lot of optimism regarding the OT and they think Haarberg would be higher ranked if he lived in a decent sized metro.   

UNL does not have the local talent levels of many states.  There is a lot of development.. long term investment needed.   Losing 2 of the top 5 in the state is tough.

This is one of the reasons that I think Nebraska is the most likely helmet to forfeit that designation over time. Demographically, recruiting to Nebraska is a nightmare. 

Low in-state talent and probably not great for regional (SD/ND/MT/WY) talent in nearby states without P5 schools either.

don't disagree...  it is the most likely to drop.   Part of the problem is it took time to build, took effort to maintain and was easy to destroy.    It will take time to recover.   Hopefully, UNL fans begin to realize the differences in building in Lincoln vs Gainesville.

Frost needs some wins and momentum like he had in Florida

his offense can lure recruits when it's putting up numbers

it's the defense that needs to get back to the blackshirts of the 90s to be able to lure recruits

it would also be helpful if Omaha, the state, and the area would have a good run of high school talent
