Secondary is one of the very very thin spots right now in Nebraska's 2014 recruiting class. Today, it got a little better.
God leaded me in the right direction, this is my fit, my recruting is over after this, GO CORNHUSKERS!!!!!!!!!!

Chris Jones, a 6' foot, 175 pound Cornerback out of Sandalwood HS in Jacksonville, Florida, gave his verbal to Nebraska this afternoon.
Jones, who is mid-level 3 star prospect, had other offers from Purdue, South Florida and Indiana. Ironically, this is the third school that Jones has been committed to, as Jones originally committed to South Florida in July, but flipped to Purdue in December after a visit by Darrell Hazell, the HC.
Nothing that I can embed about Jones' highlights, but here is his Senior Year Highlights on Hudl for all of you to digest.
Nebraska has now poached Purdue for a second year on recruits, with last year's athlete being Randy Gregory. This fact isn't lost on the Purdue staff.
Purdue assistants are tweeting MOOB now that #Huskers have purloined CB Chris Jones from #Boilers

With all the fuss and such about decommitments and such, Nebraska stays in the top half of the Big 10 rankings, while hanging at 41st in the National picture. Both lists are from 247 sports.
Update: Found a video for y'all.
