Steven M. Sipple: Calabasas Crew game-changing possibility for NU

C'Mon Man!

Let's be serious.

You're trying to tell me Keyshawn Johnson Jr., a class of 2017 wide receiver, is seriously considering Nebraska? And that he has teammates from Calabasas High School in suburban Los Angeles — most notably five-star cornerback Darnay Holmes — also talking about NU as a possible place to play college football?

C'Mon. Get real. You're actually trying to tell me Johnson Jr. already has visited the Nebraska campus five times and Holmes four and that their verbal commitments for the ’17 class are a genuine possibility, perhaps before spring arrives.

You're trying to tell me Nebraska coaches have a comfort zone in Calabasas — the high-end hometown of the Kardashians and Justin Bieber — to the extent that the Huskers also have a shot at landing quarterback Tristan Gebbia, who apparently guns lasers to Johnson Jr.
