LB Deion Jones*

Oh well, I was really looking forward to him lighting up the B1G. Good luck Debo. I really hope we can close on another talented LB. We really need em.

You guys always say, "oh well" and "good luck." Which I get, but actually I feel sorry for kids like these and would like to say, I'm sorry, to Debo, and possibly some other poor guy who has been on scholly. Since LSU had one LB who hasn't committed yet, if he does I could see oversigning. If that happens either Debo is left out to dry since he's not the original guy they wanted or they oversign and a guy who's been giving his heart and soul to LSU gets his scholly ripped away from him. Not good either way

BTW, what happens if Bama offers?? Wasn't that Debo's first choice????

I hear you but the draw to stay close to home is almost always greater. Besides all of these kids think oversigning won't happen to them. If this were the case NU would have way more guys of his caliber show up. It sucks but it is what it is. We still have a chance at some quality but until them Bo's gonna have to work it out with what he has. No way Bama offers Debo.

Dammit. As soon as LSU offered I felt 99% certain he was as good as gone, though. It's a good thing we're not thin on linebackers. :ahhhhhhhh

 
Best of luck to him, I'm glad he got to go where he really wanted.

Also, good thing we have a ton of options for linebacker recruits this year.

I am so with you on these thoughts. On the Husker side of things, you sit and say to yourself ... what more love could have been shown ... from a staff and a fan base. I'm totally bummed here. This guy was instant impact here and cheered as a Blackshirt. It is such a clear picture of all the bad things about the SEC and college football recruiting. I'm sick to my stomach. I won't be moving on just yet.
