Latest in sports!

Nebraska's recruits for the 2013 recruiting class are Nate Hawkins, a 6'5" shooting guard from Rowlett, Texas, Jeffrey Carroll, a 6'5" forward from Rowlett, Texas, Isaiah Taylor, a 6'2" ppoint guard from Houston, Texas, Josh Brown, a 6'2" shooting guard from Newark, NJ, and Akoy Agau from Omaha Central.

Also NU is close to offering 6'2" Michael Williams of San Antonio, Texas. Williams has been under the radar due to a stress fracture in his back. He lists Nebraska in his top 4 schools.

Pelini is very happy with his new coaches especially Terry Joseph. Pelini says he will be a defensive coordinator soon. Joseph will be a great improvement this year and we will see Bo concentrate more on the defensice schemes which he is really good at. Also Coach Kaczenski impresses Bo in the defensive line.

I have had bosses like bo Pelini and I am somewhat like him in my management style. (Hopefully I don't lose my temper like he does!) Bo's management style is quick to be critical and to coach in a way to make those under him better. This style doesn't praise much. Good things are just expected so when Bo has the praise level this high, he is very very happy and this means good things are about to happen. Look to Nebraska to end up with at least ten victories this year. Do you feel it?

Bret Mahrer will get a scholarship this fall. Spencer Long should also get one. Look to Jake Long, Justin Johnson, and Heung Choi to be in the mix also.

The Nebraska linebackers are rated 8th in the Big 10 by ATHLON SPORTS. Lavonte David is gone. The replacement is unknown. Nebraska will fill the position adequately but we won't have the dominance we had last year with David.

Our cornerback position looks pretty strong. I like Stanley Jean-Baptiste a lot. He should have a good chance of beating out Andrew Green. Mohammed Seisay will be a starter early in the season. NU has depth. Their cornerbacks are better!! They are deeper.

I like the fact that Nebraska is not aggressively seeking Penn St. players! Maybe we will get one of them but they will probably need to come to us first.

Now Nebraska baseball scheduling. In the works are road games with UC Irvine, Cal State Fullerton, and Texas. We are also looking at a home game with Arkansas. It would be David Horne's return. Nebraska has to improve its RPI by winning and beating better teams. They have to to have a chance to get to the College World Series.
