Love the fact we arent afraid to offer guys in the heart of SEC country but this seems like a long shot

Same school as Hunter Dale - not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing at this point.

Probably irrelevant

Cant hurt. He has had nothing but positive experiences with us thus far.

Hadn't heard from Nebraska in quite awhile - didn't know we had changed coaches.

New staff reached out to him recently. Coach Williams working on him now.

By looking at the above photo, I'm guessing he didn't realize B.C. was fired

That had to be an awkward conversation.

We are wasting our time with this kid, He is NOT coming here. If you don't know Nebraska has a new coaching staff, you aren't interested in the place at all.... That news was EVERYWHERE.

You can always sell a kid on a university. You think Ameer Abdullah or Ndamukong Suh ever really thought about Nebraska as a school for them before visiting? It never hurts to take a chance and see if a kid wants to take a closer look.

Did you read what I wrote? Did you see the other schools that have offered him? It's not like we're up against Rutgers here, oh wait....

But seriously, I consider Nebraska to be a big time name, our HC got canned, very VERY publicly, yet this kid didn't even know it. Do you really think he is considering us?
