***In state recruiting for 2017 Nebraska Players.***

[northeastNebraska]

This fall will have one of the best classes of instate talent that I can remember. Multiple players this spring already have received FBS and FCS offers.

I personally think Brett Kitrell is the best prospect in the state this year. Legit 6'4, 280. Already had an offer from Minnesota. I can bet Nebraska will offer him this June after he comes for camp. They just want to see him move around after his injury.

So I figured lets get this thread started. Who are your favorite players this year in all classes? Who will be playing at the FBS or FCS level? I'll add who has committed as the recruiting process continues.

Why is Air Force so heavily in Nebraska? Is there a coaching connection to Nebraska? I'm sure some of it is that they are a service academy and generally have to offer to lots of kids to fill their roster. Regardless suprised to see them listed as much if not more than Ohio, the Dakota schools, and Wyoming.

Who are some of the other small town kids other than those listed who have potential for a FCS or D2 offer?

 

[Eagle3898]

Jacey Nutter...Sandhills/Thedford

 

[northeastNebraska]

Jacey Nutter...Sandhills/Thedford

Any idea how is recruiting is going? He's a hell of an 8 man player.

 

[Eagle3898]

I know Air Force is looking at him and some other smaller colleges but I don't know much more than that

 

[Camdenrobley]

Trevor Havlovic East Butler

 

[Camdenrobley]

Trevor Havlovic East Butler

6'2 205 WR

 

[northeastNebraska]

Trevor Havlovic East Butler

Is he getting some recruiting attention? 6'2 205 is great size for a WR in 8 man. Does East Butler pass much?

 

[custercounty]

Dylan Reynolds -- Broken Bow WR/S/Return

Getting attention from North Dakota, North Dakota St, South Dakota, South Dakota St, Wyoming

 

[northeastNebraska]

Dylan Reynolds -- Broken Bow WR/S/Return

Getting attention from North Dakota, North Dakota St, South Dakota, South Dakota St, Wyoming

I believe I saw him at the Friday Night Lights Camp. Kid has some wheels. I hope Bow utilizes him this fall as much as possible.

Updated.

Also Jordan Paup of Central City has a preferred walk on spot from Nebraska.

 

[ThereIsNoPlace]

Jordan is an impressive physical presence. I hope his mental acuity & attitude matures if he walks on at UNL.

I think he could earn a scholarship after two or three years in the program if he keeps up the hard work. The Nebraska strength staff could make him a monster on the edge.

 

[northeastNebraska]

Bump with updates.

 

[nenebskers]

Between NDSU, SDSU, USD, Ohio, and now Wyoming the Huskers have their work cut out trying to get those borderline kids to walk on.

 

[runningback43]

Wyoming used to recruit Nebraska very well, especially western Nebraska back in the late 80's. Nice to see them making an effort to recruit kids that won't get a scholarship in Lincoln.

I agree. It's good to see these kids have success at another school because Nebraska can't take all in state kids if they want to be nationally relevant. It's not the 90's anymore but the talent has turned up in the state since 2012. Wyoming can take some of these kids and they get to play somewhat close to home and get a free ride.

This staff will get Nebraska guys who they think can contribute. Their first two commits for 2018 are Mapieu from York and Jurgens from Beatrice. Both very highly touted kids.

 

[runningback43]

After watching Bradley play last night, I think he's a great player.

Braden Write Elkhorn South committed to UNK. http://www.hudl.com/profile/2901611/braden-wright

He will be a Husker if he gets everything handled in the classroom.

 

[huskerfan1414]

Hunter Miller from Cross County has a walk-on offer from NU. Also an offer from Northern Colorado. Would be a huge get for NU...I've seen him play he is huge and can move.

 

[northeastNebraska]

Dylan Reynolds from Broken Bow received a preferred walk on spot.

 

[northeastNebraska]

Ethan Cox of Blair received a preferred walk on spot from Nebraska.
