OT Christian Westerman

Any word if he plans on coming to camp??

If they can get him here for spring ball, summer camp, and a game next fall that would really help our chances.

 
Last year Texas offered most of their junior day guests on the spot. I think something like 28/30 accepted offers almost immediately. There is a good chance he will be committed to Texas before May.

Christian's dad has a buddy that is a HUGE Husker fan. Anyway, this buddy of his lives in Lincoln and invited Christian and his dad up for the Red/White game in April. Christian's dad said they plan to make it up for the game because he wants to meet Bo Pelini and the staff and get a feel for the school and whatnot.

 
FYI the list of a top 5 I posted previously was apparently taken out of context. He had no favorites.

I'd be surprised if he picked Texas this early as he wanted to check out the Alabama schools, Nebraska, Michigan, Ohio State, etc.

 
Scout has him at :star :star :star :star :star currently the #13 overall 2011 player, and the #2 OT

Scout has a teaser asking/stating whether we really have a chance with him or not. Could anyone summarize and share? I wonder what our odds really are. Can you imagine a line with Moore and Westerman at the Tackles?! Wow. :)

There's really no reason for him to pick this early. The school he ultimately chooses will make room for him no matter how full they are. When you are one of the top 5 OL in the country you can go anywhere you want... even the day before signing day. I predict he will take his time and won't commit before doing at least a couple officials in the fall.

Our chances increased when USC hired Kiffin, but I still see him as a Longhorn. Hope I am wrong.

I agree. Especially after reading this article from an Arizona newspaper...

I agree he'll probably be at Texas, but remember...

He'll say something almost identical when he visits Nebraska, Alabama, etc. I think recruits have a website they pull templated statements from. "Love the coaches, great family atmosphere, awesome stadium, spectacular facilities, liked a lot of the current players, give it a 10, etc, etc, etc" There is a list of about 100, and they just check 4 or 5 of them off and the website generates the statement for them. :)

My favorite: "It's dead even." (or some variation) - Then they go to UCLA.

A lot of sources thought that Westerman would commit when he got the Texas offer if offered during his weekend visit to Austin but hasn't committed yet.

Hopefully we'll be in Westermans top five list and isn't Tyler Moore and/or Ryan Reeve calling Westerman and texting him about coming to Nebraska.
