DE Brant Banks [Nebraska - Signed LOI]

[Ziebol]

Because I am sure someone will ask. No if we land Banks  does not mean we lost out on Ty Robinson. Fong still thinks we will get him and we are in a great position and he is high priority on our board.

With more schollies opening in December I’m okay taking a chance on this kid.  Could play OL or DL.

 The versatility is intriguing. Still not convinced DE needs #'s that bad, but I'm sure the staff has a plan.

Impressed with how close the team is.

We told him we'd take his commitment but only if he was 100%

Would be good to get some commits rolling. It has been dead. But not gonna lie I wish it was Robinson coming back if we are taking a DE

They would take both.

Liked his visit.  Really wanted to see a game so the family drove from Houston.

No other visits set as of now but he's looking to visit Virginia.

December graduate and early enrollee.

i'd rather see him at OT...hard to find someone with his size and skill set. Tired of those kids playing defense tbh

Same. I also don't see how he projects well as a DE either. If we take his commitment, fine, but Nebraska needs more guys like Robinson in the fold. DE is not a project spot in my eyes.

Like Casey Rogers last year?

Like Casey Rogers last year?

My opinion, I think Casey Rogers has more upside and is a much better athlete than Tate Wilderman, and I like Tate. I viewed Casey as a complete steal.

Watching Banks highlights and I see so much sloppiness and no real athleticism that jumps out to me. I do see the stature but its so obvious that he has an OT body. If you want to bring him in as an athlete, great. I wouldn't give him a schollie for DE.

He may possess the mental make-up that our staff is yearning for and those are factors we don't get to see. In the end, its my opinion based on what only I can see. I could be entirely wrong here.

But I'm sure he's a warrior though
