chamrocck Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 Player: Jarvis Giles Hometown: Tampa, FL Position: RB Height: 5'11" Weight: 175 lbs. 40 time: 4.5 Visit Date: Scholarships offered: Nebraska, Florida, Tennessee, Arkansas, South Carolina, North Carolina, Florida State, Boston College, Clemson, Duke, Purdue, Louisville, Rutgers, South Florida, Central Florida, Florida International, Troy Favorites: Rankings/Stars: Rivals: Big Red Report: Assessing the talent: 4 star RB is #99 In Rivals 100 and one of the top RB's in the country. From ESPN: Giles may possess the best burst and acceleration through the hole in this running back class. He reaches top speed by his second step and can shred a defense up the seam into the second level in a blink. Very sudden and shifty through traffic. More here: http://insider.espn.go.com/ncf/recruiting/...cruitId%3d57319 Odds of becoming a Cornhusker: 15%. Says he likes Tennessee as early leader but does not plan to commit anytime soon. Also states he likes Nebraska, Florida State, and Clemson. He is very open to going to school out of state. Quote Link to comment

huskerfan500 Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 Rivals has NU as his favorite Quote Link to comment
DeathCultArmaggedon Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 That's great news. Tampa area used to be huge for us in terms of recruiting. Would love to get it back. Quote Link to comment
T-BONE Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 I just looked he has the VOLS as his number 1. Quote Link to comment

Landlord Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 Man I don't understand why Duke isn't higher up there ... Quote Link to comment
HuskerRob Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 i really hope Tray Robinson's commitment doesnt reduce our chances with Giles. We have a legit shot at this kid, and he is a BURNER! Quote Link to comment
Husker_Power Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 i really hope Tray Robinson's commitment doesnt reduce our chances with Giles. We have a legit shot at this kid, and he is a BURNER! as of today he still has us in his top 3 along with Clemson and Tennessee. Quote Link to comment
Danimal Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 i really hope Tray Robinson's commitment doesnt reduce our chances with Giles. We have a legit shot at this kid, and he is a BURNER! If Robinson was a big name I could see that. But that isn't the case. Heck wouldn't surprise me a bit to see Robinson end-up at safety or will, which on a Pelini team could be a very nice gig. I'm hoping some of our competition land a big qb or rb we aren't into and help us land a guy we are into. Quote Link to comment
robsker Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 i really hope Tray Robinson's commitment doesnt reduce our chances with Giles. We have a legit shot at this kid, and he is a BURNER! I doubt that Tray Robinson will play the same position. Tray will likely be a fullback or perhaps a linebacker --- maybe even a DE. It is less likely that he would be a RB (or IB or tailback or whatever the RB position at NU is now called). So.... I doubt that Robinson's commitment has any bearing at all on Giles. Even if he (Robinson) did play RB that would not effect a player the caliber of Giles Quote Link to comment
Huskerballz Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 Im actually hoping that Bo puts Tray on the defensive side, he's a poweful kid. With a couple years of development, he could turn into a viscious sophomore linebacker for this defense. Then, we get Giles and everything becomes hunky-dory. Quote Link to comment
huskerfan500 Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 Good and bad news, NU is in his top five, he his not going to a school in Florida, but Tennesee is still his leader Quote Link to comment
