Follow along for updates as the Huskers put the final bows on their 2017 football recruiting class.

3rd & 7 37yd

@@Corn_Huskers: I thought so yesterday and wrote as much, but ... I have no good indication one way or the other now. The fact Parrella was all fired up in the war room speaks of something big, but perhaps it was just confirmation Damion Daniels is going to sign later. Tough

Wow. Big keep.

by Brian Christopherson 2/1/2017 2:57:13 PM
Guy Thomas signs with....NEBRASKA!

by CDS 2/1/2017 2:57:14 PM
got GUY THOMAS!!

by brucerob 2/1/2017 2:57:15 PM
Just remember, you can't make chicken salad out of chicken........recruiting matters whether we like it or not.

by @Corn_Huskers 2/1/2017 2:57:21 PM
It's good PR (recruiting and class rankings), and given where the Neb program is, a little dap in recruiting is a good thing, even if it is just "on paper."

by mike5790 2/1/2017 2:59:06 PM
Humorous is chatting on the live nsd forum, stating you don't care about following recruiting. #ricky. Really glad we kept Thomas

by HuskerAO 2/1/2017 3:01:03 PM
Wasn't Guy supposed to sign at 6:00am?

by StarCityRyan 2/1/2017 3:01:06 PM
@StarCityRyan: NU fans are OK with the wait now.

by Brian Christopherson 2/1/2017 3:01:17 PM
It appears Lane Kiffin is up to his old tricks again. FAU just pulled a top JC recruit away from UCLA. Maybe it's a sign of things to come today regarding Southern California schools....

by @Corn_Huskers 2/1/2017 3:01:22 PM
I was going to say... 590 espn am, yesterday said they had confirmed with Thomas for a telephone interview for today, a good indication of staying N.

When does Calvin sign?

by Dwhite302 2/1/2017 3:01:43 PM
@Dwhite302: I think Calvin signs with Washington State. But with him, things seem to change by the hour.

by Brian Christopherson 2/1/2017 3:01:59 PM
Well I guess Lamar is still mad at me for making fun of the suit he wore to the Heisman presentation

by Red realist 2/1/2017 3:02:54 PM
@Redrealist: It's OK.

by Brian Christopherson 2/1/2017 3:03:05 PM
For the record, I get skeptical sometimes when *some* reporters use sources too now. Not the good ones. But there are certain reporters where I wonder about it now. And that's bad to say. If you ever see us source something, it's from someone pretty close to the deal. I know that people doubt that sometimes, but it's true.

by Brian Christopherson 2/1/2017 3:04:21 PM
Any chance Verdell flips?

by Dwhite302 2/1/2017 3:04:25 PM
@Dwhite302: I talked to someone yesterday who knows his stuff and thought it was like 50/50. I know Oregon fans don't think that. But ... Reggie Davis has seemed to have an eagerness about this NSD that just makes me wonder.

by Brian Christopherson 2/1/2017 3:05:14 PM
calvin? Who knows..hes so wishy washy..dont care at this point

by brucerob 2/1/2017 3:05:23 PM
Do you think it was more important that we kept Thomas, or that we keep Calvin?

by StarCityRyan 2/1/2017 3:05:26 PM
@StarCityRyan: Honestly, I think Guy Thomas is a bigger deal. And I'm not short-changing Calvin. But they've got a couple receivers that look like Calvin already. Lindsey and Spielman. Not that you wouldn't take another. But I think a big-body fourth receiver would be just as appealing to me.

Not to get to far off but where abouts is your cabin BC

by FargoHusker 2/1/2017 3:06:49 PM
I am over on Detroit Lakes

by FargoHusker 2/1/2017 3:06:49 PM
@FargoHusker: We are only about a half hour from Detroit Lakes. Big Sugarbush. In Becker County.

by Brian Christopherson 2/1/2017 3:07:09 PM
@mike5790 Great point! It's all part of the process and if you support the Huskers, you then support recruiting whether you like it or not.

by @Corn_Huskers 2/1/2017 3:07:17 PM
@Dwhite302 At this point he might sign with Hobbs University! I know, bad joke...but it's Wednesday at 9:05 AM!

by @Corn_Huskers 2/1/2017 3:07:27 PM
So is Lenoir not going with Oregon or Nebraska? I thought someone said he was staying in LA.

by James Wilson 2/1/2017 3:07:30 PM
@JamesWilson: I haven't seen him tweet what someone said he did, but USC is in play for him, so it's possible.

by Brian Christopherson 2/1/2017 3:07:47 PM
I don't think Lenoir is coming here.

by Brian Christopherson 2/1/2017 3:07:57 PM
So if Lenoir ends up at USC, does that help us with Greg Johnson?

by James Wilson 2/1/2017 3:09:26 PM
@JamesWilson: I think Johnson and Lewis go to USC.

by Brian Christopherson 2/1/2017 3:09:47 PM
Come on Mr. Brian...exact address please. By the way, do you have extra life-jackets?

by @Corn_Huskers 2/1/2017 3:09:48 PM
@@Corn_Huskers: Life jackets are always in the boat, though I admit I don't always wear one. Shame on me.

by Brian Christopherson 2/1/2017 3:10:10 PM
I think Rafdal, should have been in the impact poll.To me could be a very important cog, and may start at some point in the season.

by TO 2/1/2017 3:11:28 PM
@TO: Well, we can put up another poll. And I shall. That was one was just about early enrollees so he's not on that list.
