This is from Husker Journal. California recruit is itching to have NU offer him. Kid has some good offers already and seems eager to take visits.

MAY 20, 2011. ALL TEAMS MESSAGE BOARDS

JEREMY CASTRO, DE, 6-2, 235, MURRIETA (VISTA MURRIETTA), CALIFORNIA

Castro has offers from, Arizona, Colorado, UCLA, Washington, Oregon, Arizona State, LSU, Ole Miss and Iowa State.

Bruins: “Moving Up In My Charts”

“Actually UCLA is moving up in my charts right now. Like everything they are doing right now. They are getting more players, improving the coaching staff; the practices are better I like that. I like everything about them right now.” Castro said

“I’ve been to UCLA and saw Coach Rick Neuheisel and the coaches. They told me they wanted to see me more and hear from me more, keep in touch with them.” Castro said

USC Might Offer Later

“I went to USC junior days. I didn’t see any of their practices but I like Lane Kiffin. I talked to Coach Ed Orgeron. I’m hoping I’ll get an offer from them, I hear rumors they (USC) want me to play center. ” Castro said

“The USC coaches are real interested in me; they want me to go to one of their camps to see what I’m all about.” Castro said

More Scheduled Visits This Summer

“I’m interested in Colorado. I need to take a visit up there and see what it is like. See what the weather is like. They will probably be in my top five.” Castro said

“Hopefully I’m going to take a visit to Oregon this summer. I love everything about Oregon; it’s kind of close I like that. Oregon wants me as an outside linebacker/defensive end; stand up guy in the 4-3 defense.” Castro said

“I want to make a trip Boise (State). I would like to make a trip to Miami. My coach told me that Miami is interested in me. My coach is trying to see how to get an offer from them, things I need to work on.” Castro said

“I talked to Coach Jeff Choate at Boise State he wants me to come down and go to camp. I’m hoping to get an offer when I do go there.” Castro said

Waiting For The Nebraska Call

 

“I get letters from Nebraska but not much. I love Nebraska I would visit Nebraska if they offered. I just talked to my brother a few days ago about Nebraska. I like what they are doing I know the head Coach (Bo Pelini) is a cool guy. I know their (Nebraska) defense is getting better. They have the black shirt (first team defense) tradition.” Castro said

 

“At our school we give out black shirts, we got it from Nebraska’s tradition. Once we get a black shirt we get to wear it in practice each week. It’s hard to get it, its elite. My offensive coordinator Eric Peterson is familiar with Nebraska he likes the Huskers. He looks up on them and stuff.” Castro said

“Bonding with the coaches, how well the team is together, the program really. I’m very interested in academics; I want to see how many players graduate.” Castro said what he is looking for at the next level.

 
Apparently we have schollys available for only around 1-2 DEs. We all know that McMullen is one of our top DE prospects (and right now we are leading), and Troy Hinds is another strong commit possibility. Even further, the staff is really pushing hard for 5 star prospects Noah Spence and Jonathan Bullard. Hopefully the tag team of JP and Raymond can at least give us a decent shot for one of these guys. No offense to Castro, but I think our staff sees him as kinda a back-up option. He sounds like quite an athlete, but the problem is we currently have a serious chance at grabbing some of the nations best DEs this year, and even further, we only have a limited amount of scholarships. This is definitely great to keep in mind though, the least our staff can do is send him some recruiting packets to keep him interested.
