Back In Black Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 we have a legit chance at this kid i think, but itll be against USC UCLA Oregon IMO Quote Link to comment
Danny Bateman Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 U gotta figure, tho, that having his dad being a Husker has to help our chances. Especially if we offer first and really show genuine interest. Quote Link to comment
illnino Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 U gotta figure, tho, that having his dad being a Husker has to help our chances. Especially if we offer first and really show genuine interest. You never know. I guess it kind of depends on if he has any brothers currently in college, like the one that went to Oregon, or the ones that went to SJS. He might want to stay close to family. Quote Link to comment
redout22 Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 It would be very nice pulling a top WR with offers that he has. Hopefully his dad can help us out Quote Link to comment
Touchdown Tommie Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 It would be nice to have his dad play a role in getting him here.....obviously that did not play a role in his other sons. Quote Link to comment

HuskerJen Posted April 12, 2009 Share Posted April 12, 2009 It would be nice to have his dad play a role in getting him here.....obviously that did not play a role in his other sons. With the idiot we previously had as a head coach I sincerely doubt he ever attempted to recruit any of Harper's kids. I mean this kid has seemingly 10 brothers and they're all playing college ball. At least one or two of them were probably in high school and were ignored by the previous coaching staff. Just a guess though. Oh and another opportunity to......with regards to the former staff.
