“My aunt and uncle have lived in Wahoo for the past seven, eight years,” Hannon said. “They kind of unintentionally put Nebraska in my head for a long time now.”
Hannon added that his appreciation for the coaching staff helped him choose Nebraska over his other two favorites, Arkansas and Missouri. On his first visit, Hannon saw members of the coaching staff sacrifice their personal time in an effort to make his visit one to remember.
“The first time I visited Nebraska, the strength and conditioning coach and the other coaches took off their vacations to tour me around,” Hannon said. “Coach [bo] Pelini was watching his daughter’s soccer game in Omaha, which is quite a distance from Lincoln. I heard he left that game early just to meet with me. That meant a lot.”
*So Bo left early to meet with Zach? I thought he got kicked out for arguing with the officials. :sarcasm
