Nebraska High School Players - Class of 2017

Watched Austin Allen play last year against Elkhorn South. Super athlete, but he needs to put on some weight. He probably deserves an offer.
With the bigger class I'd probably offer the top 4. The first two you gotta get early. Allen and Kitrell you can probably evaluate through summer and early fall.
 
There is a poster on Husker Max that really knows his stuff, especially in the Metro. Posts by the name ShortSideOption. He says Ciurej supposedly would be interested in OU if they were too offer and Begley is a Notre Dame fan. Thinks we'll need to get on Ciurej early and possibly Begley.

 
Has anyone seen both Arnold and Kitrell play? Based on measurables and limited film I've seen, I'd say we should offer Arnold before Kitrell but it seems public opinion is the opposite...

Edit: In regards to OP - It's Brett Kitrell, not Bo. Bo is older brother and is already enrolled at NU.

Fixed it, thanks. I think the reasoning for Kitrell over Arnold is on offense both would project at OG and there is talk OG might not be a big position of need this cycle and they'd have Ciurej over both at the position. So the speculation was Kitrell getting an offer at DT (where we will probably take 2). Take 1 local DT then go get 1 stud would be the theory.
 
Watched him play basketball on Saturday. Great athlete. Probably not quite as tall as you would like for a QB but I can see why he's getting a look.


 
Austin Allen from Aurora is one to watch. 6'8 215 right now. Great hands, very fluid for his size. Sean Callahan says he is on Nebraska's radar. Has the frame to put on 20-30 pounds, imo.

Playing in Class B state championship now.
Watched him play basketball Saturday. Moves REALLY well for a guy that big.

I would think we'd take a flier on him and see what kind of match-up problems he can create. Especially in a bigger class.
