---How much bigger can this class get? Sitting at 77 scholarship players today. Nate thinks we could see a class of 19 and maybe even 20 (without the + signees if we decide to go there). He thinks we may over-sign by a couple this year too taking us to 21 or 22 in the end. Thus this is the silver lining with losing Blades, Watts and perhaps KJ Jr. Thus going from a relatively small class to an average size class. He thinks Watts scholarship could go to an a additional DE or OLB in this class.
---As I posted in the thread on him Christian Tutt will not visit in July. Whole family will visit during in the season (Nate thinks it makes sense from a $$ standpoint if nothing else). Still a possibility he could commit before he visits but (like I said from the VIP story I read) looking like he will do it sometime during that visit or shortly after.
---Nate thinks there is still a chance the Huskers add a commit or two before the season starts. Someone like Cameron Brown (now a consensus 4*). His mother loved the FNL visit (got mom and that is more than half the battle). So he may want to get it out of the way before his senior season. He had talked about wanting to commit before the season before. Daniel Carson the big DE is the other possible commit. He is the #1 DE recruit on our board. The Huskers right now stand a really good chance of landing him. When is the question however, happening before the season would not be a surprise. Or early this fall on his OV.
---Lot of talk that Houston Griffith was all but sealed for Florida State of late. The OWH interviewed him and he was caught off guard by that (said Nebraska is still very much in it). Some source (agenda driven?) leaked it out and got recruiting experts etc thinking FSU was a lock. Houston likes to keep things close to the vest. He does not talk a lot. Lot of his unofficial visits he does not advertise or tell anyone. So know one knows until he shows up on campus. Not on social media telling where he is going well in advance. He and his family did take a visit to Tallahassee the weekend before he visited Lincoln. After the visit to FSU most in the media thought FSU was the team to beat. After the visit to Lincoln many of those folks flipped to Nebraska. Then for whatever reason they flipped back to FSU (sounds like the makings of a hit soap opera). Alot of that had to do with a friend of his from Chicago who also goes to IMG who just recently committed to FSU. Thus folks said 'okay he is going to follow his buddy.' Tim Brewster who is in charge of recruiting at FSU is a bit of a talker and more than likely put the word out that he was headed to FSU. However, this still has a long way to play out Nebraska is very much in play as a possible school for him and Nate does not see any commit coming anytime soon. Huskers are still in very good shape here.
