David's strengths

Lavonte David emerged as one of the most athletic and talented linebackers in the country last season in his first year as a Husker, and he should only get even better in 2011. ... What makes Nebraska's coaches even more excited about David is they'll now have had him in their system for a full calendar year when fall camp rolls around, unlike last year when he was in Lincoln for only a few months prior to the season. Add in the fact that he's already put on 10 pounds of muscle over the offseason.

...

What he still needs to prove

You'd really have to do some serious nitpicking if you were to try and find a weakness in David's game right now.

The Blackshirts are gonna be a force to be reckoned with. Maybe Pelini's best NU defense. Maybe Pelini's best defense period.

 
I remember seeing his JC and high school film. I have looked at lots of film in my time as a coach. There have been a few kids on defense that are freaks. He was one of them. Some kids are what I call "slimey" It is a compliment, it means they never really get blocked and they seem to always step the right way.
