Part 3 of the 4 part series detailing the latest Husker recruits. Let’s get right to it.
Alonzo Moore (RB/WR) - Moore played both running back and wide receiver in high school. Coming to Nebraska, there is a plethora of depth for this team, so do not be surprised if he changes positions at some point. Nevertheless, Moore was all over the field the past two seasons, accruing over 1400 rushing yards, 1200 receiving yards, and 39 touchdowns. Who knows where he will play, but his impact should be felt after the next two years.
Michael Rose (LB) - Rose was the first to commit to this class over 18 months ago, and has been recruiting for the school ever since. His idea was that he could help coaches recruit the best possible people. He also thinks the Huskers are close to a national championship and wants to help compete. He is an ESPNU 150 members being given 4 stars. He is the best of the freshmen linebackers that are coming in, and he wants to play right away. He has the skill and ability, and with David gone, there’s no doubt he can do it.
Mohammed Seisay (CB) - I have already written much about Seisay here, but it is still glad to have his name on the dotted line. Seisay is a top juco prospect who can replace the absence of Alfonzo Dennard right away. He is a big guy at 6’2″, 200 lbs, and is not afraid to be physical. At times during his juco season, he shut down the entire field. Teams stopped throwing his way. Nebraska is going to need this same tenacity if they expect to have a better defense next season.
Paul Thurston (OL) - He’s not quite an Andrus Peat, but don’t make any mistakes, he’s a quality football player out of Colorado. Another top 150 prospect, including top 20 tackle, Thurston is ready to make an immediate impact. He does need to bulk up a little bit, but he is going to become a staple on this line in the next few seasons. According to ESPN, for all the linemen that submitted results, Thurston had the best Power Throw at 36 yards.
