Darien Chase @chasedariem
Chase, a 6-1, 185-pounder, just wrapped up an unbeaten season with Union High.

In 14 games, Chase had 65 catches for 1,004 yards and 14 scores. He hauled in a 20-yard touchdown in the first half of Union's state championship game win and finished with five catches for 127 yards.

Next up, he'll sign with the Huskers on Dec. 19.

"Extremely dynamic" Barno visiting: Tim Schaffner is no stranger to sending linebackers to Nebraska.

The Butler (Kansas) Community College head coach watched NU and inside linebackers coach Barrett Ruud swoop in late and win a commitment from Will Honas last year.

Now the Huskers are after outside linebacker Amare Barno, who is visiting Lincoln this weekend.
"He is an extremely dynamic player who is just now starting to scratch the surface of the player that he can become," Schaffner said. "Like a lot of the guys who leave us, his best football is in front of him."

Barno didn't have much profile when the fall began, but the 6-foot-6, 220-pounder picked up interest as he racked up 66 tackles (13 for loss) and 4.5 sacks for the Grizzlies.

"He was a freshman on the team that (Honas) was on a year ago and he played behind three FBS linebackers, which is what we try to do here," Schaffner said. ... "This year he took their spots and was a great player and a great leader for us."



Barno is set to graduate this month and enroll at a four-year school in January. He will have three years to play two.

"Just like (Honas), this all came on as a byproduct of hard work," Schaffner said. "At the beginning of the 2017 season, nobody knew who Will Honas was. At the beginning of the 2018 season, nobody knew who Amare was."

This guy is worthy of his own thread. Sounds like we might have a really good chance of landing him.

If we can hold off Florida Atlantic I feel like we have a good shot.

The comparison's as far as athletic talent that I've heard from people who have watched him are to Randy Gregory. I don't care if his only other offer is from Doane. Very raw kid with great quickness for his size. We are desperate for his body type at OLB.
