DEIONTAE WATTS, DT, 6-3, 305, PLANO (EAST), TEXAS

“Right now he has about 18 D-1 offers. He hasn’t made a selection yet but he loves Nebraska. I don’t think he’s been up there yet. He definitely loves Nebraska they made a big impression when they came down here.” Said Plano East high school Joes McCullough.

“Relationship guy.”

“He (Watts) is a relationship guy. I don’t know if he’s so much into the name, the tradition of the schools as oppose to how much recruiters treat him and how they were when they came by here.” McCullough said

Parrella continues to pound it hard for NU.

“Coach John Parrella (Nebraska) was just awesome. They had a good talk that’s one of those out of state schools that he spoken very highly of.” McCullough said

“A lot of guys who come through here you know they have different backgrounds. Most of them play high level, most of them played in the NFL, but he’s different he’s a guy who played defensive tackle in the NFL for numerous years.” McCullough said

Parrella admires his job doesn’t boast about himself.

“And when you sit down with him and everything you talked about is about everybody else. He doesn’t bring the light among himself, and you got to pull information out of him. That dude is praising his coaches, his job and the kids see that.” McCullough said....
“As crazy as the kids are now they are pretty transparent as adults and they can read through us. They do a good job analyzing him (Parrella). He’s just an awesome coach.” McCullough added

Watts is wide open looking for that special relationship with coaching staff.

“He’s wide open he talks more than others. I think right now he’s trying the best fit for him academically and the best fit for him athletically. When once again the man that will be coaching him or the men that has a good bond real have to be a big time relationship dude.” McCullough said

Big time abilities. LJS

Defensive line is our biggest need and we don't have anyone currently committed who is ranked as high as this kid. Hope we can get him to visit.

I wonder what kind of shot we actually have at Shelvin. Regardless, we seem to be attacking some good looking DT's. We need fellas like them to win B1G games.

Is he only visiting LSU, Bama and Nebraska? If it is only those three (or 2 other SEC schools) I think we have a better chance (still not great though). If he visits USC/OU/Ohio State, I think our odds shrink. My reasoning is that if Nebraska is the only thing not like the others, then we may have a shot.

LSU/Bama/SEC schools will show him something similar in terms of 'feel'. Nebraska offers something different. Maybe he finds out that he likes the different. Who knows though.
