Huskers lose one and gain one


Recommended Posts

Nebraska’s recruiting roller coaster dipped and peaked once again Tuesday.

 

The Huskers lost one of their longest-standing oral commitments, offensive lineman Dan Hoch, then picked up a commitment from Texas high school standout David Grant.

 

Grant, a 6-foot-6, 278-pound offensive lineman from Killeen, Texas, was previously committed to Oklahoma State and Iowa State. Oklahoma State, for reasons unknown, rescinded its offer in September. Grant committed to Iowa State in December.

 

Grant gives Nebraska 17 commitments for its 2008 recruiting class. National signing day is Feb. 6.

 

“It’s just a good football program, even though they didn’t have a good year last year, it’s still one of the top programs in the Big 12,” Grant said.

 

Grant hasn’t talked much with Pelini, but said, “the problem was with the defense last year, so, hopefully, he can come in and fix it.

 

The decisions of Grant and Hoch come a day after first-year Nebraska coach Bo Pelini won a national championship in his final game as LSU’s defensive coordinator.
