6-6, up to 265
Favors NU and UM over CU UTX ND. 13 offer but not ND nor UTX (who has told him they're full up with OLs). Will probably commit before his senior season. Good student 3.5/1550. BP 350

I posted this in a separate thread yesterday but since this is likely to be the only post that Bryce gets on GH, I might as well put it under his name.

An Irish Envy poster said that he spoke to Bryce at an airport and that Bryce told him that he was on his way to visit the Cockwad even though he also was still committed to NU. Bryce was also said to have been interested in Texas as well. There was no explanantion for Given's alleged sudden disenchantment with NU as well, but he is also alleged to have said some very unpleasant things about CW.

If this is all true, Bryce may be the next Nebraska Soft Verbal, but a caveat to the above info is that the IE poster has very few posts and I have not seen or heard anything on any other board to substantiate what he said happen, and it is very likely that if there is anything to it, we would have heard something from the Nebraska board at least. Of course, they are still in shreds from the Trev news so any info on Givens may have just slipped by.

Givens is now officially a NU "soft verbal" with an Official Visit scheduled for Mizzou. He might as well be listed as de-committed because he is good as gone from NU, with word that NU QB recruit Blaine Gabbert has now joined Big Trev and Jonas Gray as NU de-commit's. Givens is likely to end up at Missouri, Texas, or Florida.

If all of that happens then I really do feel bad for the Neb fans. I am not going to complain about getting a few of their recruits but I just remember how much it suck last year for us to lose the of our guys. But to lose a 5*qb, 4* RB, 4*OT, and possibly more! sucks for them

[daytonirish]

It does kinda bite for their fans. But honestly they are the ones who have created some of this problem by going nuts during the season and wanting Callahan and everyone else fired. Here is hoping Trev commits to us soon so we can all get back to the GH forum instead of the minny red forum.;)

Bo loses another NU Soft Verbal as Given de-commits Nebraska and commits to Colorado. That once vauted O-Line haul in the 2008 recruiting class for Nebraska has been torn to shreds, and the impetus for all of it was Callahan's love for JUCO's. What a disaster this is turning out to be for the Nebraska football program.

LOI to Colorado.

Another big Nebraska loss.
