Really like the sound of that.

I love the confidence, but I think that title belongs to DeAnthony Thomas.

After watching a lot of highlites of Gerry, and seeing enough of the other guys coming in and the ones we already have, I'll be shocked as hell if Gerry is not a starting safety by mid-season.

I kind of doubt it, but if he does, I look forward to watching him.

The only time I saw Pelini get riled up was when a reporter asked him if he saw the Big Ten getting closer to bridging the gap to the SEC.Pelini doesn't care for those general conference conversations.

"You talking about Alabama?" Pelini said. "I guarantee there are a lot of teams in the SEC that aren't Alabama that wish they were Nebraska, wish they were Michigan, wish they were Ohio State. Don't talk to me about the SEC. ... You know, the whole SEC isn't Alabama, it isn't LSU, it isn't Georgia. Let's talk about certain teams. ... There are some teams in the SEC that are trying to bridge the gap to be us. Everybody wants to lump the whole SEC into one category. Let's not go there."

I already stated in another thread....he's going to be NEB's Janovich.

A physical/athletic specimen that will see the field...not just on special teams. He just seems like a player that you have to get on the field right away and see how he performs.

Maybe not start, but if he's worthy, he def needs to get snaps early and often.
