Inside linebacker can serve as the quarterback of a defense, which is surely what Nebraska hopes Avery Roberts will become when he arrives on campus in 2017.
On Thursday, Roberts explained to Brian Dohn of Scout.com his reasons for choosing to become a Cornhusker:
I'm going to Nebraska. I feel like it's the best place for me to achieve everything I want to do. It's a family environment and great coaches that cares about me. They've always been there. From the day they offered me at the end of my sophomore year, they've always been there, constantly talking to me.
