gmoney88 Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 They are giving him on Scout now. Hopefully we can wow him this weekend! LINK Quote Link to comment
husker rob Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 just an FYI he now attends Ft Scott CC, which is the same school as Brandon Kinnie and a LB named Williams. All 3 will be visiting this weekend Quote Link to comment
HuskerMan Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 I would love to get him but I'm not sure how much of a shot we have with this guy. I believe I read at one point that he wanted to head back to the state of Florida. Hopefully the visit will change his mind. Quote Link to comment

Street Novelist Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 This guy is an absolute beast! would be a huge pickup Quote Link to comment
Danimal Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 Hope we can close on the Fort Scott trio of Paul, Williams, and Kinnie. That would really shore-up this class. I think Kinnie will be ours', the others are a tougher call. Paul does seem like a beast. Quote Link to comment

Ohio Pete Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 Not looking too good: UA has eye on Fort Scott prospects Pierre-Paul, 6-6, 265, 4. 65, said he has offers from Kansas State, Kansas, LSU, Arkansas, South Florida, Central Florida and Florida International. Pierre-Paul is from Deerfield Beach, Fla., but he said he has no favorites and that going back to his home state isn’t a priority. “I know I’m going to visit Arkansas, LSU and South Florida,” said Pierre-Paul, who said he can bench press 225 pounds 20 times. “I’m going to take all five visits if it’s possible.” He credits McGee for his interest in the Razorbacks. “I like the coach, and he said they were interested in me,” Pierre-Paul said. “It’s a good school, so I want to check out the school. Wherever I can play football, I’m going.” Pierre-Paul has played well this season, recording 20 unas-1 sisted tackles, 11 assisted, 11 / 2 tackles for losses of 45 yards, 1 5 / 2 sacks, 2 forced fumbles and 1 fumble recovery. “I’m a playmaker,” he said. “I’m a fast player, just all out.” Pierre-Paul said he doesn’t know much about Arkansas but is looking for school where he has a good relationship with the coaching staff and can get his degree. He’ll have two years of eligibility. Kinnie and Pierre-Paul will be spring graduates. Quote Link to comment

From what I've heard it's pretty much between Nebraska and South Florida and I didn't see anything in that article that would change that. Quote Link to comment

Might have something to do with the fact the article never mentions NU? Quote Link to comment
Back In Black Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 we definetly have to get this guys commit. what ever it takes...(just not to the colorado extreme) Quote Link to comment
Ohio Pete Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 On another forum, there is some sentiment that Nebraska is still in it for this guy if Heimuli falls through. Anyone hear anything? This is the only recent published item I could find from an article about the Ankrah commitment: Nebraska is still in the running for a couple defensive linemen. Latu Heimuli, from Salt Lake City, is an option, but the Huskers face stiff competition from Florida, Colorado and California for his commitment. Another possibility might be Jason Pierre-Paul, a defensive end from Fort Scott (Kan.) Junior College whose teammate, Brandon Kinnie, committed to Nebraska a couple weeks ago. Pierre-Paul has been skittish about which teams he truly favors – Arkansas, Florida, Arizona and South Florida are among his suitors – but NU may be in the running. Quote Link to comment
