BigWillie Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 Mason finally got his full scholarship offer and is planning to sign with Nebraska alongside his teammate Justin Rogers. do you know if he's going to grey shirt? He got a full scholarship today. No grayshirt is my understanding. Link to comment
BIGREDIOWAN Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 Good for him. This is great news and this young man is going to get his chance to prove himself in D-1 football. Welcome Mason!!!! Link to comment
DeathCultArmaggedon Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 I agree. If he has any sort of speed, he has tremendous potential. I don't know if the comparison has been made yet, but he reminds me of Adam Archuleta. Same height, and they he played college ball at Mason's current weight. Oh yeah, and he dropped the hammer.

Husker_Power Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 link Vestavia Hills safety Mason Wald's storybook offseason is officially gold. Wald, who once seemed headed across town to Division I-AA Samford, will instead join high school teammate Justin Rogers as a Nebraska Cornhusker. "Mason Wald just accepted a full ride with Nebraska," said Ken Rogers, Justin's father. ``He and Justin are going to sign (letter of intent) together at 2:30 p.m. "I talked to Coach Pelini and he was thrilled. He told me, `We can't wait to get those Alabama boys to Nebraska.' '' Justin Rogers, a 5-foot-11, 180-pound running back, rushed for 5,322 yards and scored 59 touchdowns as a standout for Buddy Anderson with the Rebels. He was recruited as an athlete by Nebraska, and could wind up playing in the defensive secondary. Wald is 6-foot, 190 pounds and could play safety or outside linebacker for the Cornhuskers.

Sick, welcome boys. Another hard working kid added to the ranks! I love the type of kids Bo is getting. Link to comment
REDSTEEL Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 Signed. I guess the backup backup plan worked and he did get a Nebraska scholarship. Good to hear. Link to comment
kstatehater Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 Signed. I guess the backup backup plan worked and he did get a Nebraska scholarship. Good to hear. Also seems he and his father have been checking out the message boards and saw how we all liked his hitting, just another reminder to watch what you say about these young men because yes they do read them, and even though it's some guy on the internet it does have an affect on them and it isn't always positive like it was this time.

I was reading the posts about a decommitt and if he were reconsidering coming back and read those post it would have convinced him NOT to come back! Nuff said! Link to comment
BIGREDIOWAN Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 Man this is fantastic I can't wait to see Mason laying m-fers out next season!!!!! Link to comment
bethelbacker Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 YESSSS! I think it's kind of funny how a kid who seemed to be headed to I-AA now has a mini-legend growing at NU before even stepping on campus. Can't wait to see this kid throwin' the bones. Link to comment
PIMPZILLA Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 Scout not showing him as signed........listening to the radio, doesn't sound like he has either. Link to comment
