So for the 247 team rankings. Will he show up on the 2020 class or the 2021 class?

Part of this class but basically a walk on for this spring and then will get scholarship fall 2020. It's a lovely sneaky loophole to oversign the 26 we can technically take

This makes me feel like the staff has all available slots accounted for.  (Hoping anyway.)  I'd assume Gifford will get a scholie this fall from the inevitable attrition that always occurs over spring and summer.  

 
I'm glad we got something figured out here. Feels like the kind of kid who could blow up at a smaller school, then embarrass us further by getting drafted higher than our DBs. But at the same time, you can't not take someone like Francois if he's coming - just gotta work the numbers to get both.

 
i had to look up what a blue shirt is.  had never heard that term before but really don't follow this recruiting stuff.   i also didn't know that Nebraska started the red shirt tradition.   

The term comes from a Nebraska player in the 1940s who chose to only practice, not play, as a sophomore, in order to catch up physically. He wore a red jersey with no numbers on it ... a red shirt. He's the oldest example of a player intentionally held out of a season for this reason. The names of these other 'shirt terms spring from redshirting.
