Huskers pick up walk-on commit from LSW's Leader

Lincoln Southwest defender Nick Leader announced his intention to walk on and play for the Huskers on Sunday night, becoming the third player in a week to do so and the 11th known member of the class overall.

Leader, a 6-foot-2, 205-pound defensive lineman for the Silver Hawks, announced his pledge on Twitter, writing, "After lots of time and thought, I've realized there is only one place I see myself playing football at the next level and getting an education for the future."

I am excited and humble to announce I will be committing to the University of Nebraska!
