He has heart, that's the main thing. I believe I read once that he tore his ACL during one of the combines and ended up finishing his drills. He also has great footwork and quickness, which should make him a great C for Nebraska in the turue.

2) Rank his importance to the Huskers 1-10 (10 the most important).

7. He'll develop into good O-Line depth.

3) Will he contribute right away? In what capacity?

He'll likely greyshirt, depending on how many people don't qualify. He'll start as a RS Sophomore when Kurt Mann graudates.

4) Who does this player most remind you of?

I dunno? An undersized center.

5) Where do you see this player in 2009?

RS Senior three year starter at C and a second day draft pick in the NFL.

 
So, which is it - redshirt or grayshirt? "Well, we still don't know for sure. It is pretty likely that (grayshirt) is going to be the road we are going to go. That is the way the recruiting process went and everything. I'm pretty sure for the team and myself, that is probably the best thing to do. Five months from right now, it might be pretty different. We just left it open. No matter what, I will be doing a redshirt or a grayshirt."
