Wyatt Mazour, who accounted for six touchdowns and amassed 378 total yards during Boone Central/Newman Grove's victory in the Class C-1 state title game has announced his decision Friday.

A 5-foot-9, 186-pounder who played quarterback for BC/NG, Mazour was the All-Nebraska quarterback according to The World-Herald.
Our All-Nebraska analysis described Mazour as "electric and explosive," noting that he led the Cardinals by rushing for 1,625 yards, throwing for 1,869 and accounting for 51 total touchdowns.

Noah Johnson - LB - 6'0", 195 lbs. - Sutton

In just four games, Johnson has blasted past the 1,000-yard mark. The 6-foot-1, 210-pounder has 1,188 yards on just 80 carries. That 14.9 yards per carry and 297 yards per game.

While Johnson revels running past a defender, there's a defiant note of pride when he runs through one.
"When you watch film and see yourself outrunning a kid, it's nice to know you're faster," Johnson said. "During the play, though, I think it's running through someone. That gets you pumped up."
Last week, he scored the first five times he touched the ball. He carried the ball just nine times for 343 yards and six touchdowns, sitting out much of the second quarter and playing only the first series of the second half in Sutton's 56-6 win against Shelby/Rising City.

If there’s a high school athlete who can say he’s well-rounded, well, it might have to be Brody Cleveland.

The 18-year-old, a junior at Ogallala High School, is a wrestler, football player and rodeo athlete.
Cleveland competed at the Rocky Mountain Nationals Wrestling Tournament in Broomfield, Colo., March 14-16, and won second place in the 220 pound division. Along the way, he beat state champs from Arizona and Kansas.
On April 6, he wrestled at the Midwest Classic in Kearney, winning second there, beating a state champ runner-up and two state placers.
And, at the Nebraska State High School Wrestling Tournament in Omaha, he won fourth place for the second year in a row.
He’s been invited to compete on the Nebraska team at the Disney Duels in Orlando, Fla., for the second time. He’s listed on Rivals.com, at 6’2” and 220 pounds, with a 40-meter run of 4.8 seconds, a bench press max of 235 pounds and a vertical jump of 27 inches. He’s had some colleges call on him, including South Dakota State University, Harvard, Iowa, North Dakota State, Wyoming and Nebraska.
And, Cleveland is also a steer wrestler, team roper, and tie-down roper in the Nebraska High School Rodeo Association.
Every night, after football or wrestling practice, he’s in the family’s arena, practicing his steer wrestling and roping.

Hemphill said the way that Riley has used fullbacks in the past is what sold him on coming to Lincoln. He Riley’s fullbacks at Oregon State caught passes and ran the ball, in addition to being asked to block.

“That was something that almost sealed the deal for Nebraska,” Hemphill said. “They never told us what their specific plans are, but previous to the visit, my dad and I took the time to do research about how Riley had used fullbacks in the past. We saw that Oregon State had two main fullbacks and they got 12-15 passes to the flat, and about the same number of carries in a season. That was kind of attractive to me. They said on the visit they’re going to use the fullback and they’re excited for me to join the team.”
Hemphill is the latest Gretna player to join Nebraska as a walk-on. Tight end Jared Blum and fullback Andy Janovich both came to Nebraska as walk-ons. Gretna native Mick Stoltenberg is a scholarship redshirt defensive lineman.

He had over 300 against us the first game of the year. Kid is good. Not shifty at all though. He will end up as a fullback. Guaranteed. Nice frame on him

Shouldn't this and all of the "#HuskersJustGotBetter" stuff stay inside the recruiting section? If people want to read about recruiting on here they know where to go. IMO it just clutters up this side of the board when it is already posted in a recruiting thread.

364 days a year it does mostly. But its signing day. These are the players you will be discussing in a year.

Anderson, an honorable mention All-Class A selection by The World-Herald this season, will likely play defensive line for the Huskers. He is 6-foot-3 and 262 pounds and held offers from Cornell, Drake, Holy Cross and San Diego, according to 247 Sports, which also says the lineman had walk-on offers from Wyoming and Oklahoma State.

According to 247 Sports, Nebraska defensive line coach Hank Hughes met with Anderson last week.

Young's ability to make the big play is more than just luck, friend.

"You can't play to do it, it's not something you can practice, no way. I guess some of it is instinct but you also study a lot of film and try to be in the right place at the right time," says Young, a 6-foot-2, 180-pound senior.
Last season Young was an all-state defensive back on the most dominant state champion of the 2013 season, as Cozad won it five playoff games by an average of 31 points. Lots of talent, lots of all-staters, graduated from that team, leaving seniors like Young and fellow returning all-stater Collin Wetovick as leading men, not just members of the supporting cast.
And Young was cool with that, even if it meant he'd now be more prominently part of the opposition game plan.
"Last year was sort of nice because other teams were so busy with Jake (Paulsen) and the other guys they sort of overlooked me and Collin," says Young. "Our roles have changed this year but that comes with being a senior, too, and we both want to be good, positive leaders for our team. We want the other guys to know they can count on us, just like we count on them."

From the time Weinmaster could put on pads and play tackle football in the third grade, he's had a passion for the game.

"You know how some people, they have something, and they just love to do it?" he explains. "For me it's football. From flag football to playing NCAA 04 or whatever, and you're just like 'Oh, I've got to do this.' That's when I started loving it right there."
Luckily for him, he was also given a gift for the sport. A rare combination of size, speed and instinct, Weinmaster was an absolute freak on both sides of the ball. But on defense is where the senior made his mark.
Weinmaster racked up 172 tackles — the eighth most in the state — not to mention three tackles for loss, four interceptions, one fumble recovery and a pair of forced fumbles.
"We just put him in the middle and let him go get after it," LHS coach Wayne McGinn said of Weinmaster, who averaged 17 tackles per game. "It's hard for teams to block him because he's such a good athlete, he's strong and he's quick. There's no fat on him at all. It's all muscle."
If you need any evidence of that, just shake his hand and be thankful you're not lined up on the other side of scrimmage from him.
Weinmaster spent about as much time on the field as anybody, serving as the Indians' running back, long snapper and defensive monster.
