Assessing the talent:Cousin to first round pick from Oregon Haloti Ngata, Simi is a tiresless player with a motor that wont quit. Big and STRONG!

Odds of becoming a Cornhusker: 5% Simi is a Morman and is going on a mission before college. Even so he has garnered many offers. Has ties to Oregon and USC. He would be a monster get for our D-line!

Is supposed to be freakishly strong. Scout had it listed that he benched 185 pounds 73 times! :woo

I think Somoans bench press their houses for fun! GOOD GOD this kid sounds like a beast!

 

[gamecocks]

This kid would be a huge get for our defensive line. We need depth for the middle, but he would probally come right in and play.

[HSKRNOKC]

Its gonna be really tough to do that. He has some major ties to the pac10.

I saw a blurb the other day that said his weight is up to 330.

 

[huskernumerouno]

OMG 73 times we need this kid

 

[husker rob]

with him being a Mormon and saying that he is going on a 2 year mission he is going to be away from football durign that time how much work is he going to need to get back into playing shape.

I dont see him coming to NU, probably will go to BYU

 

[huskernumerouno]

i guess I don't understand why they don't do the mission first.

 

[husker rob]

it is drilled into them to start their missions at the age of 19. they can start it at a later age but the longer they wait the less likely they are to actually start it

 

[hootin' annie's goatfarm]

hello, his top 3 schools (which are also the 3 schools that he just visited are tn, az st, & NU - az st seems to have an bigger edge, because of location, & since he has family ties who played in the pac 10 conference, & also, az st has players who are lds on their team

$ says - mission or no mission he will be at az st:
