Odds of becoming a Cornhusker: 5%. Talented West Coast kid who has some interest in several out-of-state schools. Son of former Husker great Willie Harper.

U gotta figure, tho, that having his dad being a Husker has to help our chances. Especially if we offer first and really show genuine interest.

You never know. I guess it kind of depends on if he has any brothers currently in college, like the one that went to Oregon, or the ones that went to SJS. He might want to stay close to family.

his father potentially was coached by bo as well.

Where?
He was thinking San Fran. W Haper played there for ten years, but waaaay before Bo got there.
bo coached there early 90's right?
From 94-96 Bo was the secondary coach for San Fran.

 
It would be nice to have his dad play a role in getting him here.....obviously that did not play a role in his other sons.
With the idiot we previously had as a head coach I sincerely doubt he ever attempted to recruit any of Harper's kids. I mean this kid has seemingly 10 brothers and they're all playing college ball. At least one or two of them were probably in high school and were ignored by the previous coaching staff. Just a guess though.

Oh and another opportunity to... dedhoarse ...with regards to the former staff.
