When Judi Jones first visited Nebraska, she immediately visualized herself reaching her full potential, in both athletics and academics.
She visited with advisers who impressed her with the academic program. Nebraska's athletic facilities, plus the academic center and support for its student athletes, also made a strong impression.
"It's well beyond anything I've ever seen," said Jones, who came to Lincoln from Lenexa, Kansas. "I just knew Nebraska was going to support their athletes so much, where it was like impossible to not become successful.
"I felt like, 'Wow, if I'm going to choose to go to Nebraska, it's going to be my own fault if I don't become successful here,' because they really give you every single opportunity.
