Love may not be Nebraska's 1st choice either. We will take 3-4 this year. One of those could easily be a JUCO as we have a gap after the seniors graduate this year. We already have 1 great commit in Banderas... so we will take 2-3 more out of High School. We have a number of guys who could end up being those 2-3 guys. There's currently 12 guys besides Banderas who have offers and 9 of those are just as good if not better than Courtney Love. Does anyone know for sure if Courtney is one of our main 3-4 guys we want or if he's second on our list?

Cox is being recruited to play offense and they only guys on that list I think we have a chance with are cox, beisel and love. Maybe Newby due to the connection with JP and I thought at the beginning of the cycle, Hutchings was fairly interesed in NU. Haven't heard much about that recently. I think where these guys are from may also plays a factor in who we accept commitments from. Being NU is trying to make its presence felt in ohio, if love wants to be N, the staff takes him.
Claiborne and Jones have some big intrest in NU as well. But even if we got one of them I think it would be DEBO 2.0.
