GSG Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 Pretty good article from Mitch Sherman on this kid http://espn.go.com/c...50-game-changer http://espn.go.com/c...50-game-changer Seems like a great kid. Wow, can't believe Im saying this but great story by ESPN on Alexander. Its on the front of the football page and gives some insight into Mackensies personal life and upbringing and why he is the way he is http://espn.go.com/c...50-game-changer Quote Link to comment
BigRedBuster Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 I know part of this comment is typed with rose colored glasses. But, we have gotten top recruits in the past from kids who grew up in really bad situations and want OUT. They and maybe their parents view Nebraska as a calm, safe place to send their kids to a top program and give them a good start away from places that are just the opposite. Let's hope this is the case here. Quote Link to comment
mabrown310 Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 My bad didnt look see those other links already up. But I got the vibe that he will choose whatever school and coaching staff he feels the most trusting and comfortable with. And what better person to have on him than Terry Joseph. Mackensie commited to Joseph at Tennessee, so I think the Huskers have a legitimate chance (albeit a very small one) Quote Link to comment
blarson3 Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 Gamechangers must mean they knew of Dixon??? Quote Link to comment
mabrown310 Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 Good point Buster. Ricky Thenarse is a great example of that. Also, wasn't it Johnathon Rose who transferred here to get away from "bad influences" at Auburn? Quote Link to comment

QMany Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 Title of the ESPN article that came out at 5:11 PM: Game-changer from the Glades Coach TJ's tweet from approximately 8:00 PM: Terry Joseph @Coach_TJoseph@rfisher88 @huskersamb @coachjp_nu Last 48 hrs all work has to be undercover and info held tight but all pays off on wed #gamechangers 1 Quote Link to comment

I still don't see it happening, but hope is always good. This kid is as athletic as they come, and he will be a lockdown CB wherever he goes. PLEASE come to Nebraska!!! Quote Link to comment
QMany Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 For what it's worth, a lot of Clemson accounts are retweeting: Robbie Tinsley @RTinMan13You heard it here first: Sammy Watkins just predicted Mackensie Alexander to Clemson in our #COMM425 class "because I just talked to him".

jsneb83 Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 Meaning this guy talked to Sammy Watkins, or Sammy talked to Mac? Because if it is the latter, then that is a violation. Quote Link to comment
QMany Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 Meaning this guy talked to Sammy Watkins, or Sammy talked to Mac? Because if it is the latter, then that is a violation. The way it reads, this Twitter account (Sports Editor of @TheTigerSports) is in class with Sammy Watkins, Sammy tells him that he thinks Mac is coming to Clemson because he (Sammy) just talked to him. I didn't think that was OK, unless he meant on his OV. Quote Link to comment
nuhuskeralum Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 Would be a HUGE pickup for us, but I thought he had pretty much written us off. After watching the clip on Immokalee Florida though I could really see how our academics side for the football team would be appealing, we pretty much guarantee you will get a degree if you want to, meaning we give more access to the tools to succeed than about anywhere else that I am aware of.
