Recruiting

[jflores]

Does anyone have any info off the grapevine?

We've had visitors, and I'm not looking for commits, but any updates on who we are going after, do we have chances with any of the folks, just a general lay of the land?

At one time we were maybe looking for another QB, that type of thing.

Best I can do to help....

First 2 game OV's

• Owens, 4* WR UCLA commit, see my recruiting thread from last week (IMO, he's close to flipping, some funny stuff seems to be going on though)
• Anchrum, 3* OL from Georgia uncommitted, Nebraska in top 3 (For some reason, I feel we're slow playing him up to this point)
  
• Grimm, 3* WR/ATH Boise State commit, flipped to Nebraska after visit
• Coleman, 3* TE Texas Tech commit, decommitted from Tech last week, NU in drivers seat
• Burrell, 4* DB from Maryland, uncommitted, Nebraska in top 5 (IMO, we're the leader)

This weekend

• Elliott, 3* DT from Texas, uncommitted, gonna be tough to land

Coming up

• Augustus, 3* LB from Louisiana, uncommitted, no read as of now
• Smothers, 4* WR/ATH West Virginia committ, may be full by the time he visits (see first bullet point)
• Simmons, 3* DB from Kansas uncommitted, no read as of now
• Farniok, 4* OT from South Dakota uncommitted, Nebraska in top 3 (IMO, we're the leader)
• Holmes, 5* DB from California uncommitted, gonna be tough to land

There are also UOV's that have already happened not just with the 2016 class but the 2017 class as well. More to come especially Wisconsin weekend as that is setting up to be one of the biggest recruiting weekends in recent Husker football history. Outside of 2016 guys that weekend, it's the trip the Calabass, California group (Johnson Jr, Gebbia, Hightower and 2 others) are coming in - 2 guys are 2017 class and another is 2018 class, not sure on the 2 that I don't have names.

I also expect to hear about a JUCO or two in by the first weekend of October...

Outstanding recap, thanks. What is your take so far on how OVs are being used by this staff?

I heard Kentrell Love was supposed to coming this weekend as well.
