Best of the Rest: Nebraska Class of 2011 H.S. Football Prospects

Closing Out Class of 2011 Could Be Rocky Proposition

In recent years Nebraska recruiting classes have produced at least at least 1 late offer during the months of December and January.  However, with all the conference realignments and coaching changes currently taking place, the 2011 class is not indicative of a normal recruiting cycle. 

Nationally, the last several high school football recruiting classes have seen a dramatic drop in the number of D-1A prospects that have changed their college choices once they have made a commitment. Yet this current volatile environment could test that trend during the final two months of the 2011 cycle. Therefore, this December and January could be more challenging than ever for D-1A coaches trying to solidify their commitments, which in turn could produce a lot more last minute jostling for prospects than we have recently become accustomed to seeing.

So far, 8 class of 2011 Nebraska high school football prospects hold D-1A offers:

Below is a list of MHN’s Best of the Rest Nebraska Class of 2011 Football Prospects not currently holding a D-1A offer. Most of the prospects listed should at least receive D-1AA offers (some already have) and or D-1A walk-on opportunities. Of course, a D-1A offer is also a possibility for at least one or two of these players. On the other hand, do not be surprised to see a D-1A offer given to a Nebraska prospect not listed below–it’s almost a certainty that D-1AA offers will be made to unlisted prospects.
