I think he'd be better off sticking with the Huskers. Nebraska is a perennial program and Pelini will have them back in no time.

Odd that they don't even mention what position he plays.

Read the article.

They mention he's a RB/DB and possible WR.

Soonergirl: I agree with you. I am an LSU fan and I think Pelini will turn things around at Nebraska. For one thing Defense wins Championships and Bo can bring that first then he will need a good Offensive Coord to take them on up.

Yes, coiff, but you'd think SI would include that in their summary.

Stay with ASU, kid, Erickson will see that you get paid top dollar while you're there.

Eyes....$ isn't everything and especially at this age. He'd be better off with Nebraska...Pelini would make sure he got his playing experience and get an education then get top recruited with NFL. His loss..........

It's official... Norm Chow is a traitor!

#1TrojanFan | 01/21/08, 01:20 PM

No, he just belonged here in the first place

Sun Devils are going to get alot of recruits having the young Mr. Jake Elway the next few years.

Hammered_everynight | 01/21/08, 01:26 PM

Trojan Fans, let's just admit that Norm was unappreciated at SC. Lane Kiffin & Steve Sarkisian take credit for his blueprint, yet were unable to tweak the offense's intricacies to fit a shorter QB (Booty). Lane & Steve were also trying too hard to win Leinart a second Heisman ( If you don't believe, check out the '05 USC vs. ASU game). Heck, SC's coaches make too many promises and try to play too many guys (RB, for example). Look at SC's rushing stats and you'll understand what I mean. Politics are preventing the best guys from playing.

So what. Loyalty is a quality worth having. Also, he is too small for College Division I play. I would take a Walk-on anyday over a minimal player in stature. Ciao Baby.

I like Bo Pelini and wish him the best of luck but u have to look at it from the recruits standpoint... ASU is a program on the rise and Nebraska has fallen so far from dominance... plus the kid is from arizona so that most likely added to his decision

SoxSideIrish88 | 01/21/08, 02:35 PM

Kid is making a mistake. Stick with the Huskers.

J. HOVA: MISTER UNTOUCHABLE | 01/21/08, 04:04 PM

Huskers are in the dumps. Devils are on the way up. Kid lives about 5 miles from Sun Devil Stadium. No brainer.

DevilDan | 01/21/08, 07:32 PM

I bet the Huskers win the B12 north during this kid's college tenure. I wouldn't overlook Nebraska. But I do respect this kid's decision to stay close to home.

SoonerGirl | 01/21/08, 09:06 PM

He'd start at both schools but AZ St. is winning now and thats what the kid wants he has every right to go where he wants

Devils have a great tradition. They've been down for awhile, but sometime watch the 1976 (or so) Fiesta Bowl when the Sun Devils under Frank Kush CRUSHED the No. 1-ish Huskers. It was one of the greatest hitting football games I've ever seen. This program isn't new to winning, boys and girls.

localboy54 | 01/22/08, 12:41 AM

And Erickson is a great coach.

localboy54 | 01/22/08, 12:41 AM

Localboy, you're close: It was teh 1975 Fiesta, NU was #9, and after leading 14-6, the Huskers lost it on a field goal with 2 minutes left. Other than that, you're spot on, mate.

Nebraska had a lot of talent last year, especially on offense. What they need is MENTAL toughness. That will be back this year. This kid was probably short on that for the Black shirts. He probably made the best choice.
