OL Conn feels 'at home at Nebraska,' verbally commits to Huskers

Alex Conn is an offensive lineman from the Great Plains, so maybe it’s no surprise he spent the morning before announcing his college decision via social media in fitting fashion: Chopping up trees after a wicked line of storms rolled through the Derby, Kansas, area on Sunday.

“There’s fences and trees down all over the place, and I’m just helping a buddy out,” Conn said. “I think we’re on our sixth truck load of trees.”

Once that portion of the work day was done, Conn gave his verbal commitment to play football at Nebraska.
