Nebraska on Tuesday reeled in the first defensive back of its 2021 scholarship recruiting class.
Lardarius Webb Jr., a 5-foot-10, 170-pound player from Jackson, Mississippi, announced his verbal commitment via Twitter.
"I just want to thank GOD that I'm able to showcase my talent on a such a BIG stage," he wrote. "This has been a long journey, but I have enjoyed this journey, too."
Webb Jr., the son of former NFL defensive back Lardarius Webb, becomes the 12th player known to have verbally committed to Nebraska's class of 2021.
