Nice.

Is On3 targeting Husker fans? It seems like they've got a lot of our prospects rated much higher than everyone else.

I think they believe in their system on how they rate/grade players. That might be one of the reason's why they made on3 in the first place but who knows.

Actually committed to the staff Saturday evening.  He didn't announce it until today so he could notify the other schools that had been recruiting him.

Said he's done with recruiting.  Planning to make at least one game this fall.

Considering enrolling early but hasn't decided yet.

well at least we know he is a 4* in manners or courtesy

I think I have his dad's rookie card in my old collection, lol.

Visiting this weekend.

Interesting that he's now listed as both an offensive lineman and a defensive lineman depending on which service you look at.  Pretty sure he's still a DL recruit for us.

I'm just a layman, but I would prefer him at OL as well. On a side note he seems to have decent hands, could use him in some trick plays.Would be interesting to see him come in as an eligible receiver then go out for a pass.

Why a pessimistic take? 4*, top 300 on 247.

is it the list of other schools that offered him and lack of major programs the reason?

I am a little on that side of things but moreso because of the coaches in place (Dawson) and also after watching Ty Robinson's development or lack thereof.  The loss of Rogers.  The transfer portal could dramatically change things with this group this year of course.  Waiting to see like everyone else but it seems like they've rebounded pretty well there.
