Signed - CB Lamar Jackson

So happy about who Mike recruits. The jump in who we are in play for from before last year is noticeable better.

We have been in the running for these types of kids, we just never land them. We were up there for guys like Sua Cravens and Andrus Peat each year but we could never land any of them.

Cravens, Peat, Priest Willis, Owa...the list goes on and on.

I still get a little triggered every time I see Owa's name. That was the first season I really followed recruiting.

What makes you guys think we'll close on a couple of guys like that this year? Just curious.

I believe that is what myself and swmohusker were alluding too. It's nice to be in the running, but it doesn't matter if we don't close.

I'm sure if we lose out we'll get another "diamond in the rough"

I sure hope not.

Riley, Williams and Stewart visited yesterday.

Jackson said his mom really likes Riley.

Arizona State, UCLA, USC and Nebraska seem to be his final group plus possibly Oregon after his visit this weekend.

Named Nebraska his leader for now.

Announcing via Bleacher Report video the week before signing day.

This could be special. Don't underestimate the pull we'd have if we get Bulter, Reese, Fitzpatrick....Jackson, Fitzpatrick and Reese really hit it off.

Soooooo much time in between now and then. Wish it was sooner

If those 4 along with Farniok would commit, that would put us at number 17 in the nation.

Showed up to watch practice today in California. The interest is real, staff is thrilled he's there.
