Does anyone know if the Huskers are recruiting Tyrone Ward, a JC linebacker?
"My job as a football coach is to educate and prepare the kids who come into this program for the rest of their life..." Bo Pelini at the Penn State post game press conference Nov. 12 2011
I posted a thread on him awhile back...a kid from Oakland CA....he made a visit a month or so back....no offer and probably won't be if we land Newby....suspect he will be a late backup option if all else falls through....we have a connection with San Francisco CC with Zac Lee and Gomes among others to boot...

Notre Dame only had one Rudy but Nebraska gets a new crop of Rudys every season
If he is as good as advertised, I would not be mad if we took 3-4 high school LBs and then Ward. Someone stated he may be the best JUCO LB in the country? I don't think you can pass that up...especially with our MLB graduating this year. That would give us more time to develop the 2012 and 2013 guys and not burn a redshirt unnecessarily.
He is highly regarded...and I agree if a spot is open and he is still uncommited then take him....

I think that even if we get 4 LBs in this class we can still land a commitment from him as he has already stated that we are his top choice and would most likely commit after an offer. I believe he's a 3-2 guy
