Grayson connection: RB Thompkins latest in what Huskers hope is budding pipeline

When Nebraska signed Mohamed Barry out of Grayson High in Loganville, Georgia, as part of the Class of 2015, the linebacker was like a lot of other players around the country in that he was the only Power Five conference football prospect at his school.

Grayson, however, is not like most schools in the nation when it comes to producing college football players. The year before, the Rams sent eight to Power Five schools. And in the four recruiting cycles since, Grayson has been on a talent binge of serious proportions. The Huskers are among the many teams trying to take advantage.
