This kid has speed, VERY nice hands and has the ability to come away with the ball, even if its not thrown greatly by his QB. This kid is an absolute steal for Nebraska and its walk-on program.

StPaulHusker Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 I like that he is 6-3 and about 190. we need to keep getting the taller receivers on the team. If he has good speed and hands to match, he could be a nice addition in the long run. Quote Link to comment
HuskerNationNick Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 He could be a great pick up for us! Quote Link to comment
iowahuskers Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 Not to take away from this kid, seems like a great athlete and good walk on. But he played in Iowa's lowest Level, 1A so the competition is not the greatest. Glad to have him Quote Link to comment

They appear to lack anyone who can deliver the ball to a receiver............. I would beg to differ, they have two QB's with a good arm and some nice accuracy. The only thing is, they all lack experience. I watched their Spring Game, Sokol and Rudock look pretty good. With a good OL, all you need is a decent QB to do better than what they did last year, especially with Weisman being a huge threat in the run game. I understand its only a Spring Game, but they do have a good arm. I am not going to be premature and state that they don't have a QB who can't throw until I see it on a Gameday. Quote Link to comment
