papio2chi Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Will try to visit for the spring game... tentatively has us in his top 3: Stanford, Nebraska, and Michigan Quote Link to comment
chamrocck Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 Hopefully he comes for the Spring Game and his interest in NU grows. Here are some articles about him. Comments emphasize his smarts, route running and blocking...would be good Cornhusker fit. OSU legacy and has OSU offer...doesn't sound like OSU is too strong if he likes Michigan. http://www.elevenwarriors.com/2012/03/catching-up-with-devon-allen and http://autzenzoo.com/2012/03/11/devon-allen-likes-ohio-state/ Quote Link to comment

girlknowsfootball Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 This kid was going to make it for the Spring Game... then his dad got a new job and starts next week. Therefor, his dad doesn't know if he can get off work that friday to travel up for the game... so the family is in waiting mode to see if they can come or not. If they can't make it for the spring game, the dad said they will make it up soon. Quote Link to comment
ADS Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 "I'm trying to do some visits over the summer but I'm in track season right now so it's kind of tough," Allen said. "Once I start visiting some campuses and stuff, I'll start narrowing it down and make some decisions." While the Brophy Prep prospect mentions Arkansas, Ohio State and Notre Dame amongst the schools that currently stand out to him, he says Nebraska has also been in contact. http://nebraska.rivals.com/content.asp?CID=1364670 Quote Link to comment
CMT1525 Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 he wants to try to visit sometime in july Quote Link to comment
Blackshirt316 Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 How many WR's are we taking? Quote Link to comment
CMT1525 Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 2 at most. we will only take another one if it is a guy we wouldnt turn away Quote Link to comment
girlknowsfootball Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 2 at most. we will only take another one if it is a guy we wouldnt turn away I hadn't heard this. Is this what the staff had said? I know they have said we need talented young receivers pretty badly as we are losing several soon. We lose Tim Marlowe, Steven Osborne, KC Hyland, and Taylor Dixon after this year. Even though really only one of them plays it's still bodies that are off the roster. We only brought in one guy this year in Westerkamp. I really think we have to take 3 this fall.... or if we take 2, then we take 3 next fall. We'll lose Quincy Enunwa the following year. Quote Link to comment

There is no reason we shouldnt take 2 this year, and maybe 2 next year. Especially if kids like Devon want to be Huskers, and getting a QB like Stanton could be appealing to WR's in this years class.

MinnwiscowaSker Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 Big class, gotta get numbers at each position, hit the areas of need a little harder, but don't skimp on something then have to take more numbers with a smaller class. Quote Link to comment

chamrocck Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 With Jerrel Morrow out, I like this kid as an outstanding WR get for our class. He has moved up my board. Quote Link to comment
Haspula Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 He's an inch shorter and 5 pounds less than Jordan Westerkamp. They both have the same 40 yard dash time. Want him N Quote Link to comment
