Thanks_Tom RR Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 One that I was surprised is not coming is Seward's Adam Holtorf, who is going to the Wisky J-day instead. Haven't seen anything official on Decker or Strong? Anyone confirm whether they are coming or not? Would be nice to have these guys but it's not nearly as important for the local kids to come to these events as they can visit about any time. True, but I think it helps to build class cohesion and peer recruiting when we have local guys in with the national kids how visit. It was great to have Luke Gifford this year as he starting a testing group for the commits and some of the recruits. That seemed to help solidify the class throughout the season.

Thanks_Tom RR Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 Strong will be here, too. Quote Link to comment

But it's not too surprising if they choose to go somewhere else because they'll have lots of chances to visit here. Quote Link to comment

HuskerFowler Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Matt Clark from Syracuse NE will be here. A guy that will most likely get an offer at some point. Turned down Wiskys jr day. Quote Link to comment
teachercd Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Do the Skers ever get commits out of their Junior Days? Quote Link to comment
HuskerFowler Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 From kids that have attended? Yes. At junior day? Not in the last few years. Think we have a good shot this year. Quote Link to comment
HuskerFowler Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Austin Conway from Aurora CO will be here. Being only 5'9 I'm guessing he's not going to be a QB for us. Colorado and NU are his only offers so far. He's also a 4 star basketball prospect. Nice little junior day list starting to assemble. Quote Link to comment
Thanks_Tom RR Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 @NateClouse: #Huskers have an impressive group of 2015's coming for Jr. Day this weekend @HuskerOnline has confirmed 16 so far: http://t.co/8UD9ml5ml6 $ @NateClouse: @HuskersFB Over half of the group has offers already and 4 Rivals250 players. Pretty solid group. 247 is reporting only nine visitors, all in the OP (minus Jaelin Austin, plus Grant Schmidt). These things are usually pretty fluid, so I would not be surprised to hear more changes until this weekend. Quote Link to comment

Thanks_Tom RR Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 Jaelin Austin is not coming. @HE_GOING_PRO: Unfortunately I won't be able to make it out this weekend to Nebraska, due to distance and financial issues Quote Link to comment
FrankWheeler Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 From kids that have attended? Yes. At junior day? Not in the last few years. Think we have a good shot this year. Next years class will be interesting with how few scholarships look to be available. The staff might have to be really picky with how they accept commits. Just based on the senior class only we only have 11-12 guys, really small graduating class. Quote Link to comment
wiuhusker Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 Jaelin Austin is not coming. @HE_GOING_PRO: Unfortunately I won't be able to make it out this weekend to Nebraska, due to distance and financial issues Even more of a reason to let kids take official visits earlier.

I thought I remembered early on in this recruiting cycle it was looking like we were going to take fewer than 20, and now we're looking at 25-26. Was I misremembering that or am I overly optimistic we'll be able to sign a bunch of quality kids next year. Quote Link to comment
