To start, Nebraska got verbal number 20 of the 2014 cycle this morning...
Congrats to Karr '14 WR, Jariah Tolbert, on his verbal commitment to the Nebraska Cornhuskers! #B1G #KarrFootball #SecondToNone

Nebraska indeed took the verbal of Edna Karr (NOLA) WR Jariah Tolbert on Thursday morning. Tolbert, who is the team mate of 5 star Texas A&M verbal Speedy Noil, had only one other BCS offer and that was from Utah. Tolbert's and Noil's other WR teammate, Glenn Irons, is also a fairly hard Nebraska lean.
The New Orleans area is where Nebraska found TE Cethan Carter last year from nearby Metairie Archbishop Rummel.
However, with the addition of Tolbert to the '14 list, there comes news of a departure for now. And thankfully, it's not the Running Back we were all thinking would be gone...
HuskerOnline has confirmed walk-on running back King Frazier has left he program. All signs point to him landing at North Dakota State.

King Frazier, who was stuck behind players like Ameer Abdullah, Imani Cross, and Terrell Newby as well as probably Adam Taylor coming into next year, simply needed a place to play. While playing all 12 games for the Huskers this year, he only had 12 total carries for 44 yards and one Touchdown this season.
