NamelessHusker Posted November 9, 2005 Share Posted November 9, 2005 Courtesy: www.butlercc.edu/parts/athletics/roster_cards/verdell_todderick.jpg Player: Toddrick Verdell Hometown: Hartwell, Georgia Position: Safety Height: 6’3” Weight: 215 40 time: 4.4 Visit Date: None Scholarships offered: Nebraska, Florida St, Kentucky Favorites: Florida St Rankings/Stars: Rivals: Bid Red Report: N/A Assessing the talent: Ranked as the 24th best prospect in the college junior ranks and plays for Butler Community College, with fellow NU recruiting prospect Kenny Wilson who is slated to visit Nebraska on Nov 11th. He finished the season with over 65 tackles, 3 interceptions, 2 fumble recoveries and 3 tackles for a loss. Nebraska could have the upper hand in his recruitment with 2 of the 3 players (Zac Taylor, Frantz Hardy) from last years class already seeing playing time this year and a third who was slated to see playing time had it not been for an injury. Verdell will be a 3 for 3 player after using up a redshirt last year and playing as a starter this year Odds of becoming a Cornhusker: 45% The Huskers are up against Florida St for his services. He has a visit scheduled to Florida St December 9th. He is looking to schedule a visit to Nebraska as well. With his early graduation in December, he will likely make a decision before December 17th, so it's crucial NU get him in for a visit or step up the pressure Quote Link to comment
DJR313 Posted November 9, 2005 Share Posted November 9, 2005 Hopefully Taylor, Hardy, and Tomerlin can get in this guy's ear and convince him to take a visit and come to the ole NU. Quote Link to comment
KansasHusker Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 with size/speed like that at the safety position I would think he could really lay the smackdown! I really hope we get this one... Quote Link to comment
DJR313 Posted December 10, 2005 Share Posted December 10, 2005 What happened to this guy? Haven't heard anything about him in a long time? Quote Link to comment
NamelessHusker Posted December 10, 2005 Author Share Posted December 10, 2005 He's visiting the noles as we speak, although i don't expect us to steal him from the Noles Quote Link to comment
hootin' annie's goatfarm Posted December 12, 2005 Share Posted December 12, 2005 hello, toddrick verdell & paul griffin dt **** (who is already a fsu commit), both from butler cc, were supposed to visit fsu this weekend, but...THEY MISSED THEIR PLANE if I were a juco prospect, who received a free plane ticket, & received a scholarship to get my schooling paid for you better believe that I am making that plane trip - the incompetence/irresponsibility of the both of them blows my mind (let fsu have them) Quote Link to comment

I knew he was suppose to be at FSU this weekend, but hadn't checked up on him to see whether he made it or not. Having you around to help out with recruiting is beneficial Quote Link to comment

I wonder why the kid is in Junior College... Quote Link to comment
DJR313 Posted December 12, 2005 Share Posted December 12, 2005 Any chance that him missing his plane to FSU helps NU slide in the back door to swoop him up? The profile says he wants to make a decision so he can enroll by Jan. Does he have a visit this coming weekend set up? Quote Link to comment

The profile says he wants to make a decision so he can enroll by Jan. Does he have a visit this coming weekend set up? He is planning on rescheduling it. I really don't see NU having any chance with this guy. He has been high on FSU since he went JUCO Quote Link to comment
DJR313 Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 Figured as much, just thought he might follow his Butler brethren to Lincoln. Oh well. Quote Link to comment
hootin' annie's goatfarm Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 hello, verdell finally arrived to tallahassee, fl this weekend - which was his 1st visit of the yr, & he has just committed to fsu (oh well, NU got palmer who is not as big a safety as verdell, yet he does have 3 yrs to play...plus, NU must have wanted palmer in a big way since they assigned blake to him in the 1st place) Quote Link to comment
NamelessHusker Posted December 19, 2005 Author Share Posted December 19, 2005 Kid is a stud, FSU got a good one, no doubt about it. Quote Link to comment
