You knew that Nebraska was pretty close to full by the fact that they threw a very late offer at David Engelhaupt. Otherwise they would have offered much earlier since he didn't play a position that the late disappointments played.
 



Riley: Waiting for one but we know what is happening there, ceremony, so it is good.

Don't want any late surprises so it has been good.
 
So, assuming that Pernell Jefferson signs his LOI today as anticipated, that puts NU at 21 commits. Keels is leaving. Before Keels was leaving, I had been hearing that NU could sign around 24 recruits (or that is what they have room for) - I thought that I read that included oversigning by 3. So, given the above, where does NU stand with available scholarships? Are we right on par, are we oversigned at all, or are we undersigned? Are we hoping/expecting any other surprise commits later today, or are we done? Also, does Tanner Lee get counted in the 2016 class? And, FWIW, last I checked the recruiting rankings, NU ended up #24, 25, 26, and 31 in the rankings.

24 already assumed Keels had exhausted eligibility.
21 HS commits + Williams transfer + Lee transfer = 23. Which puts us oversigned at +2.
 
Riley: Recruits obviously impressed by facilities. But they are looking for comfort level with people--staff, players, and so on.

Players here LOVE Nebraska. That really jumps out at you.

Assumed he was the replacement for Chase Allen? Starting out at H-Back
 
I skipped some pages here, so my apologies if these have been posted. This is a GREAT way to connect former players. Make them images similar to the guys signing and have them welcome their position group:

California?

Riley: Look at NU historically, players from everywhere. Want to keep that going in so many areas. In addition, coaches have personal connections. Many of the coaches have recruited California for long time. Have connections with coaching staffs there. Then find out if player is good fit.
