Nebraska fans are still reeling over losing out on No. 1 prospect Dylan Raiola this summer. Who wouldn't be?

Dylan Raiola broke every Nebraska fan's heart earlier this month when he committed to Georgia. The No. 1 prospect in the 2024 recruiting class snubbed his father's alma mater for the promise of nationwide fame on the Georgia Bulldogs, joining the back-to-back national champs who are already loaded with recruited talent from top to bottom.

The Nebraska Cornhuskers had one big reason to believe they were favorites in the Dylan Raiola sweepstakes: Raiola's father went there.

But in the end, the five-star quarterback prospect committed to Georgia one year after originally committing to Ohio State. That time, he picked the Buckeyers over the Cornhuskers, too.

So one can understand the emotions Nebraska fans are currently going through: a combination of grief, denial, anger, and hopelessness.

According to Husker message boards, one fan posted a comment titled "late night thoughts" at 4 a.m. The comment itself is exactly what one would expect from a disillusioned college football fan staying up until the wee hours of the morn:

Nebraska fans show their grief over losing Dylan Raiola in strange ways

Ah, yes. Enter the "Sunrise Zone," also known as the hours in which the most intricate conspiracies are born.

The unidentified Nebraska fan, more likely than not high on feelings along with some kind of drug, decides to try and poke holes in the "feel good" story of Helen Keller. Also known as the human "potatoe."

Stricken by grief over the loss of Dylan Raiola, whose mullet no doubt makes an appearance in this fan's dreams every night, he or she thought that taking down a blind and deaf girl might make him or her feel better.

As was construed in the message, Helen Keller is no more inspirational than a "folk tale." She never achieved things like graduating from college — at the top of the class, the user specifically notes — or flying a plane. The upshot of these ramblings, we think, is that Helen Keller is actually not that special of a person.

We don't know how much weed you need to smoke to start discrediting Helen Keller's life story, but it's probably a lot.

Maybe the fan will find some solace when Nebraska sign a quarterback prospect before the end of this cycle — the Cornhuskers added Georgia Tech quarterback transfer Jeff Sims this past offseason but are expected to recruit another player at the position, perhaps Bellevue West's Daniel Kaelin.

Alternatively, the fan could also run a simple Google search on Helen Keller and realize that being born deaf and blind makes it kind of difficult to, well, live, and her small successes are, in itself, successes. There are a lot of things worse than losing out on a top quarterback prospect. Really puts life into perspective, doesn't it?
