We'll see where it's rated when it's all said and done, but I'm pretty happy with this class overall. There certainly aren't 30 better classes, regardless of what the cyber coaches claim.

Wilbon told @JoshHelmholdt that having Bo Pelini in his living room last night with Ron Brown sealed the deal for the #Huskers.

I'm sure having Ron Brown there to whip up a righteous "Ring of Jesus Fire" had to help too.

As for Cally.. he WAS one of the "sleazies" who would promise the world whether he meant it or not.

 
Mikale Wilbon had to move fast.
The rumors of James Franklin leaving Vanderbilt became reality Jan. 10. Suddenly, Wilbon, who was committed to the Commodores, felt like a running back stranded with the football on a broken play.

He could stick with Vandy, follow Franklin to Penn State or take a chance and open up his recruitment less than four weeks from signing day.

He had to do something other than sit and feel sorry for himself.

“I was real disappointed, because I was really starting to love Vandy, and I could see myself going there,” Wilbon said. “It's a great school academically and I wanted to play for Coach Franklin.

“(But) I got right back up, and I tried to look at it as a positive.”

Shortly after an impromptu group chat and some exchanged texts with his parents, who were both at work, Wilbon went to Twitter to let it be known that he was officially decommitting. Then he waited.

Wilbon never would have guessed that it would lead to Nebraska being one of the first to respond.

Talking about what he thinks a moved up signing date would've affected his decision with James Franklin leaving. Glad he had the opportunity to switch.

Says his head coach and his little brother helped him the most in picking a school.
