LaVista DB Kenzo Cotton #Huskers That is a sweet name. http://rivals.yahoo....o-Cotton-140928 Kenzo Cotton is F-A-S-T. He already owns the 200m state record and would have the 100m, but it wasn't counted b/c of the wind. Quote Link to comment
BigRedBuster Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 What do you think of a kid like this? Jake Paulsen I don't have his 2012 stats but he was the North Platte paper's player of the year. Last year he won the class B 100 M with 10.877. He won high jump with 6'7" He got second in the 200 M with 21.988. I don't believe those are his personal bests. Quote Link to comment
Ed Helms Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 Regarding Paulsen, here's the North Platte Telegraph article talking about him. NP Telegraph - Jake Paulsen The running back rushed for 1,393 yards on 199 carries and scored 19 rushing touchdowns. He scored 24 touchdowns on the season, three coming on kickoff returns. Paulsen, who also plays basketball for the Haymakers, said he has received college offers, but his heart is set on one place. "Nebraska," Paulsen said. "I want to go to Nebraska and right now I'm leaning towards playing football." Paulsen listed Arkansas as another university who has offered him a scholarship, but he wants nothing to do with the Razorbacks, despite the school being in the Southeastern Conference. "It's Nebraska," he said. "I love Nebraska, I want to play for Nebraska and I want to play football for Nebraska. "I love track too. But football is my game. I want to be a Husker."

Hedley Lamarr Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 Watching paulsens highlight reel he seems like a definite preferred walk on at this point. Would like to see more film. Quote Link to comment
HuskerFowler Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 4star Guard Viane Talamaivao is making a surprise visit from Corona Cali same school as Taylor. Flew here on his own dime. Also Mikale Wilbon and Billy Hirshfield...sp? Were unable to make it Quote Link to comment

PaulCrewe Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 I wouldn't sleep on Clay Fisher. Very easily could be the best of the bunch. Definitely the fastest. Quote Link to comment
EZ-E Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 This year it is imperative that we own the surrounding 500 mile area. We could honestly fill all of the spots with those guys and have a top 15 class with ease. Quote Link to comment

We could honestly fill all of the spots with those guys and have a top 15 class with ease. I was going to say that there is a ton of in state 2014 talent. I think we could get 5 in state kids next cycle; Foster, Cotton, Rose, Paulsen, and Fisher are all very good players. Quote Link to comment

We used to have a steady stream of Huskers out of Cozad. Perhaps we can get another one. Quote Link to comment

I realize the competition is not great but the kid is solid. Fast, tough, great vision, great change of direction, great stiff arm, great ball security. I just don't know where we would offer him. I don't see us offering as a RB or CB due to the size of players we have been offering at those positions. I wonder if the staff would consider offering him as a slot WR. Maybe they hold back an offer and hope to get him to walk on, but I would hate to see him go somewhere else. I would be shocked if he doesn't end up with some quality D-1 offers, and maybe some from BCS schools. I know i shouldn't even mention the name, cause Danny Woodhead was a beast, but I don't want to see us let another great instate kid like that slip away. Quote Link to comment

I agree, it is a special year for recruiting throughout our immediate surroundings, however, I think it is important for the coaches too continue to pursue talent in Florida, Texas, and California....Most years, that is where we will make our hay.... ----Also, how did Calvin Strong do? Was looking too find out more on this guys potential (I live out of state).... Quote Link to comment
