Jaquez Yant (RB/LB - Godby (FL) HS)

Some of these guys have limited eligibility, namely Culp, Bubak, and Falck, but there's a good bit of talent in this list that makes it intriguing.

Even though most may amount to nothing other than being additional practice bodies, which has legitimate value in its own right, it's a given we'll see a handful of them on scholarship (at minimum Nouili, Hahn, and Gifford).

It’s weird how 24/7 and ESPN all had Ezra Miller as a 4 star and both had him inside the Top 250 range (if I’m remembering correctly) and here Rivals had him as a 5.6 3 star. It’s just funny how the big 3 can see things so differently at times, while seeing things exactly the same other times.

The part I’m loving here is we have 2-4 players that could just as easily be on scholarship at another power 5 school and here we have them as walk ons. Literally a nothing to lose situation there.

With as much attrition Nebraska has had the last several years...there is a good chance several of these guys can receive a scholarship in the future. That is assuming they earn it.

I assume that was discussed with the players as a strong possibility before they decided to walk on.

right, like guys like Ezra Miller, Gifford and John Bivens, I could see any and/or all of them earning a scholarship (and I believe Gifford is getting one for sure...assuming he holds up his end of the deal).

The addition of Connor Culp is going to pay of big in my opinion. The man is a former army all American player and he even started as a true freshman at LSU. And I’d have to guess he’s improved some of his weaknesses he had since that freshman year. Having a legit kicker will help tons. We all seen how much a team can struggle without one....

I’m pretty sure Gifford goes on scholarship second semester. Agree on the test, the deal used to be once you get in the two deep, you go on scholarship.

The list keeps getting better and better.
