In what seems like a natural fit, Lincoln Southwest linebacker Anthony Banderas will be part of Nebraska's 2018 walk-on class, according to sources.
The 6-foot-1, 205-pound Banderas, a Journal Star all-city selection this past season, turned down a scholarship offer from South Dakota to be part of new Nebraska head coach Scott Frost's first recruiting class.
Banderas certainly will know the lay of the land at NU.
His father, Tom Banderas, was a prized scholarship recruit at Nebraska in 1984, becoming a standout tight end in Tom Osborne's offense.
Anthony's brother, Josh Banderas, was a Husker co-captain in 2016, leading the team in tackles (93) from his middle linebacker position. He appeared in 47 games at NU, starting 31.
