Yup. Cally also got a lot of hype from his buddy Tom Lemming, seemingly for doing him a favor by signing panico. OK, now I'm not even sure I can still see the original topic from here.

Pumped to have this kid pick us so late. Looks perfect for our spread attack and should have plenty of room to run with the lineman coming in his class.
I think our class is better than its rating

 
We'll see where it's rated when it's all said and done, but I'm pretty happy with this class overall. There certainly aren't 30 better classes, regardless of what the cyber coaches claim.

Wilbon told @JoshHelmholdt that having Bo Pelini in his living room last night with Ron Brown sealed the deal for the #Huskers.
Bo closes on in-homes.
I'm sure having Ron Brown there to whip up a righteous "Ring of Jesus Fire" had to help too.

As for Cally.. he WAS one of the "sleazies" who would promise the world whether he meant it or not.

 
Mikale Wilbon had to move fast.
The rumors of James Franklin leaving Vanderbilt became reality Jan. 10. Suddenly, Wilbon, who was committed to the Commodores, felt like a running back stranded with the football on a broken play.

He could stick with Vandy, follow Franklin to Penn State or take a chance and open up his recruitment less than four weeks from signing day.

He had to do something other than sit and feel sorry for himself.

“I was real disappointed, because I was really starting to love Vandy, and I could see myself going there,” Wilbon said. “It's a great school academically and I wanted to play for Coach Franklin.

“(But) I got right back up, and I tried to look at it as a positive.”

Shortly after an impromptu group chat and some exchanged texts with his parents, who were both at work, Wilbon went to Twitter to let it be known that he was officially decommitting. Then he waited.

Wilbon never would have guessed that it would lead to Nebraska being one of the first to respond.
