Gonna be fun watching him play. The other LB's we're getting with Rose, Afalava, Brown, Love, Newby, Nebraska could easily use a 3-4 defense down the road.

If my math is correct, 12 ypc is pretty crazy.

I was wondering why he only got 12 carries with that kind of production but apparently he was battling cramps after a fast start.

Had his first pick if the year three minutes into tonights game against GI. His big return was negated by a penalty

Surprised his running stats haven't been mentioned yet. Went for 192 on 21 Carries and a pair of scores against GI

At the 5* Challege they were saying he's about as fast any other LB there, not as fluid a mover as some but fast as hell.

Rolled his ankle during their lots to Omaha North Friday. Sporting a walking boot at school today

This is what I was thinking too. He seems to be a beast of a RB as well as a monster LBer. As a RB, a quick, physical guy his size can be effective. Is there any chance that he is looked at as a RB for the Huskers? I suppose with Ameer, Braylon and imani all there already for next year, the need is not as great as it is at LBer -- but with the numbers he puts up as a Rb... makes you wonder...

I could see fullback, but I think we have a greater need at linebacker, particularly with janovich sounding like a future stud at fb.

Dylan hit on it above. He is obviously VERY athletic, also proven on the track as a hurdler. Now just think about that athleticism and explosion coming from the linebacker position. And there are those on this board and around the state that are screaming for that as we sit here
