Lavonte David came out of Fort Scott CC. Maybe we strike gold twice with Lamin.

Along with Yoshi, Kinnie, and SJB.

Yup and all of them have been major contributors.

AbU, NU needs U

[Atbone95]

He did release a Top 5 today... I'm sure we're in it, but can anyone tell me who else we're competing against?

[ADS]

My guess is:

 

Arkansas

Auburn (offered today)

Nebraska

South Carolina

Tennessee (offered today)

Arkansas

Auburn (offered today)

Arizona St

South Carolina

Tennessee (offered today)

 

FIFY. Hope we can jump on that list after his visit June 15.

he's visiting Arkansas June 3rd, they were first in the game. Auburn, Arkansas, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Arizona State are his top 5 per words out of his mouth. He is high on NU though because he says "the fort scott ledgends" went there... meaning kinnie, david, and hardrick. He knows a lot about SUH too and loves him.

Didn't Eckler take him to Indiana? Maybe hes moved on since then

 

He's at USC

Right, he is now, but im pretty sure eckler took him to Indiana when he first left here a few years ago

I don't think there is a single piece of new info in this post. Though not a bad synopsis of the thread so far. You only missed that he will be visiting Nebraska in June, after the Arkansas visit.

 

Oh and...

Yes. He was at Indiana and is now on the FAU staff.

By text, Lamin said he plans on visiting Nebraska for Big Red Weekend and was in the process of arranging transportation. The Fayetteville, N.C., native Sunday told Palmetto Sports that South Carolina was firmly in the mix.

 

“South Carolina, that’s the closest to the crib,” Lamin said. “My mom could come see me play.”

 

Arkansas, Auburn and Arizona State are contenders; don’t be shocked if USC jumps in, the way Lane Kiffin massages scholarships. Nebraska’s old contact at Fort Scott, Jeff Sims, is now Carl Pelini’s recruiting coordinator at Florida Atlantic.

So, why are we waiting to offer Claude Pelon from Mesa CC? He is an aggressive and athlete DT who wants an offer from NU (would put Nebraska near the top if his list), and DT is a position we really need help at. Are we waiting on Lamin? Would we take two JUCO DTs?

 

This article describes how highly sought a NU offer is to Pelon. http://floridastate.rivals.com/content.asp?CID=1509918
