McWilson's flip to Kentucky might make Alonzo Moore needed on defense more.
+1 although I think having Dan Samuelson in this class woulda been nice too.
I'd be surprised if we take both slot-receivers....
I would like to see Mixon, Johnson, and Sayles.
But, in all likelihood, it will be Mixon, Veii, and Scott.
Deion played defense
Seriously though, I think you make the exact point as to why IMPO he should be moved to defense. Nebraska lacked a playmaker on defense this past year and they certainly didnt/dont lack any on offense. I would put him on defense since the Huskers are lacking guys like him over there...at least proven guys.
Really a no-lose situation though because like you said, the kid is a stud.

He is just such a threat on offense, I'd hate to see him moved.
If he is moved, I hope they at least let him do punt and kickoff returns....
Scott is the slot. I think Veii is a DB target. Gage, the other slot, is out.
is that correct?

The second part would be my guess as well.
If Scott says no, then Sayles, or do we have to whiff twice?
At what point in time can Braylon Heard and Nick Ash's schollys be distributed? When school starts again in the fall or the year after?
Heard is still on scholarship until we hear something official that contradicts that...possibly on NSD? I am assuming the staff meets with him this weekend, since they've been on the road pretty much non-stop, and he either stays or requests a release. He started the semester, so he either finishes the semester or if he is released now, he'd either have to pay for school or quit, I'd guess.
Ash's would have been available immediately, I assume, since he graduated. I'm not 100% certain how they restrict it, but if you are at 85 and a guy leaves, fall camp, you cant go out and recruit a new player or accept a transfer to fill his slot until the next term. You can however award that schollie to a walk on that is already on the team right away, as long as you are at or under 85. That protects players from getting dropped for a 'better' player in the same term. At this point you have several open with the seniors exhausting availability, so it doesn't matter.
so, if Heard does decide to leave now, his scholarship could go to a current player now, or an incoming player for the fall term. Again, all it affects is the total number of scholarships available.
If we max out at 28, we have to find 2 scholarships through normal attrition before fall arrivals. If Heard leaves, just 1. If we only take 26 (or 27 w/ Heard out), then any further attrition would leave open scholarships to fill.
