He was a Nebraska signee last year, had an offer from Oklahoma then and again this year, had an Auburn offer this year and had just picked up another from Oklahoma State. And, very importantly, he's an early enrollee. It's only surprising because we have so few spots left, but the coaches clearly wanted more DL.

Got to have DL in the off season S&C program and in spring practice. Title: Re: Did you guys see that we got another commitment yesterday?

It makes A LOT of sense to me that we would add a DL, esp one that could perhaps step in right away. We don't have that many in the current class. |
