Assessing the talent: He broke his ankle his junior season which probably accounts for the lack of attention being shown to Jones. He can absolutely fly. He’s got some bulk too.

 

Odds of becoming a Cornhusker: 35% I just have a problem thinking that if a kid has his heart set on RB, he will commit to NU now. But if he’s willing to try a new position, NU has a better shot. This kid though might be good to get, just so we can pluck another one out of Sooner territory. Oklahoma has shown some late interest on him and moving in. Hopefully this will be our fourth Oklahoma commit after we get Reggie Smith.

I think that he would be a good athlete to grab, if he is willing to switch positions. With a 4.4 he could play back, reciever, returner, and in the secondary. But if his mind is set on playing running back, i don't know if we will get him.
