...and then there was one. The Husker Nation turns its lonely eyes to you, Mr. Talan.

Any chance that there will be an unknown commitment tomorrow from out of left field that will excite everyone?

I'm not trying to be too cynical here, but this kid had offers from Missouri, Iowa, Nebraska, Oregon State, Texas Tech, SMU, Texas State, North Texas, Wake Forest, Navy, Louisiana Monroe, Arkansas State. That is not really a collection of top-notch cohorts there. I wonder what took him to Iowa. Given our thinness at LB, are not still some more highly sought after recruits we could be targeting. I don't get too excited about competing with Arkansas State and Wake Forest for talent.

Talan is a well-regarded recruit with offers from 20 programs, including Arkansas, Cinci, Iowa, Kansas, Illinois, Pitt, Purdue, and UCF.

Garbutt had to play RB for his high school, so many in the state of Texas think he was very underrated at LB, and he will be great there once it is his full time top priority position.

Revisions include:
Sykes flip.
Griffin commitment (surprise to Vandy)
Vaughn commitment (surprise to Illinois)

All but three commitments are now known. Of note:

Jordan Cronkrite (RB) added to Florida's impressive haul today.
DeMarkus Lodge (WR) added to Ole Miss' receiving corps.
Talan is a 'N.

In an interesting circle-of-recruiting development, Sean Harper is now a Washington State commit.

Sykes flipped from Wazzu to Nebraska and caused NU to cancel Harper's visit during the final recruiting weekend. It now seems as though they got the better end of the deal.

Awesome, I'm glad he found somewhere.
