Husker Football Recruiting: Official Visitors List for Miami

When Nebraska gets a chance to line up against a team like Miami in prime-time, the Husker football staff must put its best foot forward in terms of getting recruits to visit.

With anywhere from approximately six to eight scholarships available (depending on how creative the coaching staff wants to get), there’s a fine line to walk between picky and the full-court press.

Prospects visiting this weekend include:

Quarterback Lamar Jackson – While Jackson committed to Louisville on Aug. 30, he’s still making the trip to Nebraska, an encouraging sign. Offensive coordinator Tim Beck has a system that has catered to Tommy Armstrong, Jr.’s choices this season, giving him near full control of the offense.

Hopefully what Nebraska’s doing with the deep ball will be enticing enough to worry the Mountaineers and not solidify his commitment further. Jackson is clearly the apple of Beck’s eye in terms of signal-caller recruits right now.

Tight end Tavin Richardson – Clearly a highly-coveted prospect by Nebraska as both Charlton Warren and Rich Fisher are on the case. The Duncan, SC receiver would help shore up an area of need as Jamal Turner, Taariq Allen and Sam Burtch are all seniors. However, Turner has a chance at a medical redshirt.

Defensive end Reuben Jones – Another Nebraska-West Virginia battle, the Huskers are likely going to need to plug someone into a massive Randy Gregory-sized hole in 2015. Jones would likely have every opportunity to make that happen.

Considering his offer by fellow Big Ten member Michigan State, a school well-known for its defenses as of late, his addition would assist with depth if nothing else, especially if Avery Moss is reinstated.
