On NU's radar - but no offer...yet!

[BIGREDFAN_in_OMAHA]

Scout is doing a tease on someone named Abner. I believe it is Zane Abner of Atkinson, NE who plays for Atkinson West Holt. He is supposed to be an awesome basketball player and plays on a select basketball team with players from Iowa, Nebraska, and Missouri. He is listed at 6-4, 180. The tease mentioned he had 9 interceptions last year on defense and had two td receptions of 85 yards on offense. I know how some people feel about the whole nature/nurture football dynamic. Yet an athlete, is an athlete, is an athlete.

Exhibit A: Antonio Gates.

Both Scout and Rivals are doing stories on Zane Abner today. It seems he is close to getting an offer.

If he isn't that good, I think with our depth we can afford to take a chance on a sleeper. physically he looks good.

Well i saw this kid in person at a basketball game about 2 weeks ago, i am 6'4" and i would say he is pry more about 6'2" 165lbs.... i asked someone from that town about him, they tell me he can make some circus catches. I dont see him getting a schollie offer, but maybe asked to walk on.... i have been wrong before though

Player: Jason MunnsHometown: Kennewick, WA

Bid Red Report: :star :star :star :star

Assessing the talent: Will be the top prep QB in Washington State next year. A real man among boys. Southridge High runs a pass-first offense, and he's been a starter for two years. He's a 3.8 GPA student, an excellent athlete, and by all accounts is a terrific leader.

Odds of becoming a Cornhusker: 10% Leon Jackson is from the same area, so Nebraska has some exposure in Kennewick. I'd be shocked if we didn't offer Munns at some point. He's got the tools to be an incredible college QB. I'd bet on BC himself making the trek to Kennewick. I live about 90 minutes away, so I'll monitor his senior season.

Here's an article

Look for the Huskers to go after this kid

The brother connection is always nice. The recruiting class two years from now could have Dillard and Ronnell Grixby.
