It’s interesting that Nebraska has to look to the far reaches of the country to pull in the Class of 2012.

Mohammed Seisayis well-traveled. Originally from West Springfield, VA, he spent a year at Fork Union Football Factory before playing for Memphis in 2010 – garnishing C-USA All-Freshman Team. Next he was off to Eastern Arizona Junior College in lovely Thatcher, Arizona. Now he lands in Lincoln.

Zaire Anderson played juco ball in Riverside, CA. He is originally from Philadelphia, PA.

Two players, Thomas Brown and Corey Whitaker, will have to travel 1500 miles from the Los Angeles area to play for the Huskers. Bo Pellini also got a rare pick out of the deep south snaring Imani Cross from the Atlanta, GA area (about 1000 miles).

Other states represented: Arizona, Colorado, Illinois, Ohio, Louisiana, Missouri, Utah and a pair from Texas.

Of the 2012 Rivals250 (top 250 recruits for 2012) that are from the state of Ohio, three have chosen to go to Columbus, three to arch-rival Michigan, one each to Michigan State, Nebraska and Wisconsin:
