Former Alabama Fullback transferring to Nebraska?

Well, we shall hope this works out better than our last transfer.

Or at least Mike doesn't end up in such a poor place in life that he feels the need to sue the NCAA over a video game.

 
FYI, this is Vince Marrow's son. Vince is the TE coach for Omaha Nighthawks. He's also an old childhood friend of Bo since they played football together at Cardinal Mooney. He was also Kevin Williams' high school coach during the 2009 season before taking the Omaha job in 2010. He was instrumental in putting Williams in touch with the Nebraska staff during his recruiting process.

 
I'm confused. Google says he was transferring to Eastern Michigan.

Nevertheless here is his profile

Is he in EMU? This guy says so

Also, didn't he miss the deadline for transferring this semester?
I can't answer any of those questions, but something to consider is that the source (Howard Chen) posted this info. an hour ago, so it's fresh news. Those articles you're referring to are from January 2011 and Sept. 2010. I imagine Howard Chen is reliable since he's the Sports Director at Fox News in Toledo, Ohio. Furthermore, he was also one of the first people to predict that Kevin Williams would commit to Nebraska a week before it happened.

Has a damn good frame for linebacker in the big ten. He must be pretty athletic if he had offers from bama us and penn state. I'd be pretty happy to see him come to NU although I don't think he'd be playing fullback.

 
Could fill the void of the BIG running back that Dontray left.

But he wouldn't be able to play until 2012 season... correct?

 
4th down on the 1 yard line, who you going call? A thumper in your pocket never hurts. :huh:

Hope this is true, would love to see him pound it up the gut old school.
