</TD></TR><TR><TD align=middle> </TD></TR><TR><TD vAlign=top>When looking at extreme height, the typical prospects you find will be offensive linemen, specifically tackles. What if you were able to have such height at a skill position, say wide receiver? It almost seems like an unfair prospect, but it is a very real one as Nebraska is looking to secure a Midwestern recruit with all the tools to literally live large.

Josh does not name a leader, wants to play in the midwest. He stands at a whopping 6’ 8” and weighs in at 210 pounds while clocking in at a 4.7 40 yard dash. Josh will be visited in the future by two schools with slightly different looks. Xavier will be visiting with an obvious skew towards basketball while Illinois is looking at him as a basketball and football prospect. Josh said that if he ends up going to a school that has a football and basketball program, he would like to play both sports.
He is getting interest from
Nebraska,
Illinois,
Boston College,
Miami (OH),
Iowa,
Louisville, Ohio State and Cincinatti.
