Don’t want to be that guy, but watching his film and Betts film, I think Nixon is a better talent 

 

Well if he ends up here it doesnt matter much who had the better tape. They'd both be nebraska recruits.

I’m thinking you mean Watts, cause Betts is the better talent out of all 3 and I don’t think it’s close.

Excuse me , watts.

Kid plays some RB too.  That could help him in our offense.

Supposedly announcing Monday. Top 5 of Nebraska, Baylor, Notre Dame, Purdue, & Georgia Tech.

Rivals guys previously had him going to Notre Dame and are also now flipping their picks to Nebraska.

 

So apparently we traded Watts for him.

 

I’ll take that trade.

 

Not a flashy prospect, but a good one. Tough, physical, falls forward. Makes one cut and gets up field. Very willing blocker. Could be an excellent route runner.

I wouldn’t say he lacks that much flash. He looks real explosive, great acceleration and speed. But, yes, he doesn’t look like he makes a bunch of juke moves like perhaps Robinson and Houston. But that first move can be lethal.

If we get his commitment tomorrow it should take our class from 64th to 53rd

William is pretty damn good. You can see that he's a coaches' son based off his routes. He knows when to break, and when to attack the coverage. I expect a ratings jump for many reasons. He is going to have a really good senior year, and his reputation as an ATH and being a Nebraska commit, will garner more attention to his game. If Frost wants you at Duck-R, you have to be really good. He is pretty electric as well. His speed looks effortless.

Dont get me wrong, I absolutely love this prospect. His game is just built on using angles and spacing rather than flashy highlight plays where he makes everyone miss. That shouldn’t be interpreted as necessarily a bad thing...a guy like Nixon will more easily adapt to the higher levels of the game.

I read it as anytime from 230-330. Just so people can waste an hour waiting.
