No D1 offers or interest but my 5'6" 150lb but really fast son (RB & DB) has several D3 schools that are interested in him.  Too bad genetics are against him when it comes to size.

This site has a spot for him on the front page. Missing STARZ and all that. Check it out.

in regards to kickers, I think having them on scholarship out of high school is a huge waste. It rarely ever works out. Michigan signed a bunch of "#1 kicker in the country!" types only for them to fizzle out and get passed over by a walk-on. Makes zero sense to waste a scholly on a high school kicker. Let them all walk-on and then give the scholly to the best one.

Punter seems like a way less risky proposition out of high school. Most of the top punters like Zoltan Mesko that Michigan signed out of high school were as advertised.

I noticed on the 247 site today the four teams after Ohio State are kind of interesting.

Nebraska football landed its first defensive commitment of the 2020 class on Sunday, as official visitor Tamon Lynum committed following his official visit.

The 6-foot-2, 165-pound Lynum picked the Huskers over offers from Kansas, East Carolina and others. Lynum is a three-star corner with an overall rating of 82 according to 247Sports.


Lynum is the fourth commitment for Nebraska's 2020 class, joining quarterback Logan Smothers, wide receiver Zavier Betts and offensive tackle Turner Corcoran.

Lynum, who was familiar with Scott Frost and his staff during their time at UCF, told Husker247 in May that he was looking closely at the Big Red. 

“The Nebraska offer really touched me,” Lynum said. “I had been praying for a power-five offer for the longest time, and God blessed me with my first one. I love Nebraska, the fan base, everything about it. I would fit there style. They also like long tall corners who can move, and I feel like I’m the piece that they have been looking for.”

Well they had both kids on campus last weekend, and now Purdy moved up his commitment to tomorrow, so I guess they had a plan...hopefully...

And he committed to Louisville.  Really worried about the QB future

They did pick up a pair of 3*  defensive players from Ohio, which has frequently worked out.  DE Chris Mayfield and CB Angelo Grose

Sounds like 9 or 10 kids just committed to Michigan at one time. The names are rolling out slowly, but already include the nation's #1 safety. Am interested in the full list. Hope it includes AJ Henning.

Jordan Morant is the top rated safety. 

AJ Henning would’ve been a top 10 player in the nation if not for the injury. As it stands I think he’s like #80 overall in the 247Composite. Big time talent but that injury was bad. Never know how someone will recover until they do.

Make it 4 with LB Devin HIghtower, who, based on his offer list, looks more like a 4* FWIW.

Nebraska football continued to rebuild the pipeline via Kansas on Monday, as the Big Red picked up a commitment from Derby (Kan.) offensive tackle Alex Conn.

The 6-foot-6, 280-pound Conn chose Nebraska over finalist Oklahoma State, and held offers from TCU, Kansas, Iowa State and others.

Nebraska closed quickly on Conn, who visited Lincoln for the Red-White Game in April, and returned for the Big Red BBQ over the weekend.


Conn is a three-star prospect with an overall rating of 87 according to 247Sports, and gives Nebraska two solid offensive line commits in the 2020 class, joining fellow Kansan Turner Corcoran in the class.

Conn is the fifth overall commit in Nebraska’s 2020 class, joining Corcoran, quarterback Logan Smothers, wide receiver Zavier Betts and cornerback Tamon Lynum.

Jordan Turner commits to UW. LB out of Michigan. Lots of schools wanted him. Also a lot more noise in Madison tonight. 2-3 more commits coming soon.

Michigan offer probably not committable, since they have 1.5 Million offers out.
