In-state Husker target Watts picks up more offers
Omaha Burke wide receiver Xavier Watts runs past Grand Island cornerback Ace McKinnis for a third-quarter touchdown during the Class A state championship at Memorial Stadium on Nov. 19.This was already clear, given that the 2020 Omaha Burke standout entered the week sporting scholarship offers from Nebraska, Wisconsin, Notre Dame, Northwestern, Iowa State and others.
Watts, a 6-foot, 200-pound wide receiver and defensive back and a first-team Super State pick by the Journal Star as a junior, added offers from Iowa and Tennessee -- his first from the SEC -- on Tuesday and earlier in the week also picked up an offer from Kansas.
