Nebraska, still on the hunt for defensive linemen in the 2021 class, landed in the top six for Anquin Barnes from Montgomery, Alabama.
The 6-foot-5, 300-pound Barnes is a consensus three-star prospect but has a gaudy list of offers. Alabama, Auburn, Florida, Tennessee and Georgia join NU in Barnes’ top six. He also plays basketball.
Nebraska has been aggressive in offering defensive linemen in the 2021 cycle but has yet to land one.
NU defensive coordinator Erik Chinander is the point man on the Huskers’ recruiting in Alabama.
