The Nebraska Football team received a committment on Tuesday from Jesse Coffey who is a offensive linemen from Denton, Texas. Coffey stands in at 6’7-6’8 and weightts 290 lbs at the moment. He says that he has the frame to go bigger if he needs to it will all just depend on what the coaching staff wants.
The offensive tackle is the seventh high school player and the fourth Texan to verbally committ to the program so far this year. I would expect the Huskers to take 3-4 more offensive linemen in this recruiting class so hopefully this is just the beginning!
Welcome to the Big Red family Mr. Coffey!
The Nebraska Football staff was informed today by Cody Green that he has choosen the Huskers of the Texas A&M Aggies. This is a big get for the Nebraska football team as he can do a lot of things at the quarterback position.
Green is a dual-threat quarterback from Dayton, Texas. He stands in at 6’4 and weights in at 220 lbs right now. Green is also rated a four start prospect by rivals.com and the #10 rated dual-threat qb in the 2009 class. I hope that with Green committing that the Husker staff can lock up some more recruits that want to join Green in Lincoln.
I would personally like to welcome Green and his family to the Big Red Family.  GO BIG RED!
It appears that Nebraska head coach Doc Sadler has finally got a recruit to come to the Univesity of Nebraska and play basketball. Eshaunte Jones a 6-foot-4 guard who spent last season at Hargrave Military in Virginia, will enroll at Nebraska at the end of the summer, according to his travel team coach Eric Vaughn.
After the whole Roburt Sallie incident (who has now signed with Memphis) Coach Sadler really needed to get sign a player for the upcoming season and it looks like Jones is that man. Jones has said that he got along well with the coaching staff when he visited and he really liked Lincoln.
Kentucky, Pittsburgh, and Baylor were also rumored to be in the hunt for Jones.
The most highly recruited player for the Nebraska Cornhuskers in a very long time won’t be making it to Lincoln after all to play hoops for the Huskers. Roburt Sallie and Nebraska were turned down by the Big 12 due to violation of Rule 6.2, which states that a student-athlete who enrolls at a conference school must meet initial eligibility requirements.
Back in 2006 when Sallie thought he was a Husker the first time he attended a couple of classes and that is what caused all of this problem. Now Sallie will not be able to play any where in the Big 12 conference and is stuck trying to find another school to attend this late in the process.
What a bad deal all around…
Dontrayevous Robinson accepted a scholarship offer from the University of Nebraska on Thursday night and became the fifth commitment of the 2009 class for the Huskers. Robinson is a big bruiser type of runner back as he stands in at 6’1 and 215 lbs as he gets ready for his senior season of high school.
Robinson comes from the prestigious Trinity football program out of Texas so you know he is going to be ready for college after he finishes up high school. He ran for just under 900 yards, had a little more than 200 yards receiving and 18 touchdowns as Trinity won the 5A state championship in Texas.
Welcome to the Husker family Mr. Robinson! GO BIG RED!
C.J. Zimmerer a fullback and linebacker from Omaha Gross received a full ride scholarship offer from the University of Nebraska last night and all it took was a night of sleep before he accepted the offer to become the fourth commit in the 2009 class for Nebraska Football.
Zimmerer stands in at 6’1 and weighs in at 215 lbs. Hopefully he will have some room to pack on some muscle onto that frame and become a great in-state fullback for the Huskers.
Congrats to C.J. and his family! GO BIG RED!
The Nebraska Football team is a big need for defensive line prospects in the 2009 recruiting class and last night they received a verbal commitment from Thaddeus Randle a defense tackle prospect out of Galena Park North Shore in Texas.
Randle is currently listed at 6-1 and 255 lbs. Expect Randle to pack on some pounds during his senior season and when he gets to Lincoln.
Randle chose Nebraska over scholarship offers from Oklahoma State, Texas A&M, Baylor, TCU and Houston.
The Nebraska Football team has got their second commitment in the 2009 class. Shawn Bodtmann, a 6-foot, 208-pounder, attended the NU spring game last weekend and left impressed with the Huskers’ facilities and fan support.
Bodtmann will be playing at one of the linebacker positions, depending on how much weight he puts on. Definately look for Bodtmann to redshirt his first year in the program.
The Huskers have also offered Bodtmann’s teammate Eric Shrive, a 6-foot-7, 298-pound offensive tackle so they are hoping to get two players out of Pennsylvania for the 09 class.
The 2008 Nebraska Football class has been announced by the University of Nebraska. There are currently 27 scholarship players and 18 walk on players in the 2008 class. There could be a few more added in the next day or so as well I am hearing.

Congrats to every one that has wanted to join the Nebraska Football team and received a full scholarship, grey-shirt offer, and walk on offer! Once some of the grey shirt offers are announced, we will have them posted.
Thanks to Huskers.Com for some of this info.
The day a lot of Husker Football fans love! It is National Signing Day where high school seniors and faxing in papers to the Universities they plan on playing football and getting an education at. Instead of having 25 different posts about each player, we will post the list of players, and a little bit of info about each one later today. Can the Huskers pull off any recruiting surpises today? Who knows!
