MinnwiscowaSker Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 says we're recruiting him the hardest. We've really needed a great TE recruit for a number of years. Thankfully the staff has been able to develop some guys like Reed and McNeill that weren't super-hyped recruits. Quote Link to comment
Nexus Posted May 18, 2011 Author Share Posted May 18, 2011 Husker Locker article. “Tradition is the biggest thing that comes to mind about Nebraska. The fan base is huge. I heard they have really good facilities and saw some pictures. I’d like to try to get on campus and continue talking with coaches. They’re definitely a school that interests me,” he said. Jalen heard plenty about the Cornhuskers before Garrison came calling. One of Whitney’s assistant coaches, Paul Hanks was born in Hemingford, Nebraska. “He’s a huge Husker fan.” “Academics are big. I want to try to get into pre-med, so that’s something that’s high on my list. Location is second thing. I want to be near a big city and see how close the airport is. It’s important to know if my family can fly in and take a taxi or if it’s going to take a couple of hours to get to my games. Tradition’s a factor for sure. I’d like to go to a school that has big-time football where everyone on campus is into it.” LINK Quote Link to comment

Some epic battles, and the only opponent that refs requested I leave the gym after some "questionable" language. Mom was very proud let's say. Quote Link to comment
Stumpy1 Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 A very good friend of mine is from Hemingford. Small town and a small world by the looks of it. Quote Link to comment
RedDenver Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Why? Sometimes I just don't understand kids' reasoning. Quote Link to comment

The bowl ban will be over, it is his backyard college, liked them as a kid, and then there are the sweatertops. This is not that shocking in all honesty. Quote Link to comment

I just don't understand the thinking of joining Lane Kiffin in any capacity. IMO these recruits are joining a program that'll have a new HC in a couple years. Quote Link to comment
