"The opportunity to get to the NFL, and the 94 percent graduation rate and the academic all-Americans…that is what sold me.”

We could use a kid like Joseph. A huge guy to plug into one of the vacant DL positions next year.

hello, joseph townsend decision b/w NU & wa st is difficult for him, because he gave his pledge to wa st out of hs, yet his brother larry townsend played for NU during the '90 (& both NU & wa st have offered):

While it's a different program than when his brother was here, Larry should still bend his ear.

townsend came to the NU/ks game as an unofficial, & was very impressed w/ the game & atmosphere - I predict that he officially visits wa st & NU before making a decision b/w the 2

He is leaning real hard towards Nebraska. He says that he is 80% thinking about going towards Nebraska.

That would awesome to land this guy. We will need him for depth purposes on the line next year.
