Nebraska lands commitment from Louisiana running back Arnold Barnes RivalsNick with more from yesterday commitment:
in October after landing the offer from Nebraska, the opportunity to play for a New Orleans native in the Big Ten was the perfect opportunity.
"The reason it’s Nebraska is because of Mickey [Joseph]," Barnes said."He’s a New Orleans guy, and he knows what it takes to make it to the next level, and I believe in this coaching staff right here."Bryan Applewhite"Our relationship is strong," he said."We talk everyday. I feel like he could put me in the best position."
Barnes quickly took an official visit to Nebraska after being offered on Sept. 29, and he immediately connected with the city of Lincoln and the campus.Despite starting the season as a Tulane commit, Barnes' strong senior season has put him on the Power Five map with a commitment to Nebraska being the final piece to his recruitment. Looking forward, Barnes wants to cash in on his big opportunity.
His long speed in the open field won't blow away Big Ten defenses, but making a one-on-one tackle in the open field on the bowling ball that is Barnes is next to impossible for lanky defensive backs. Barnes will enter Lincoln in a running back room that has been one of the few bright spots this season under running backs coach Bryan Applewhite. With development in that room over the course of one-to-two seasons, Barnes could see a complimentary role in the offense turn into a lead role.
