Three-star DE Daishon Neal re-committed to Nebraska Tuesday morning after Michigan made a late-surge to get the three-star prospect. What will be making more news, however, is what was said by Neal’s father following his commitment to the Huskers. According to Nick Baumgardner, Neal’s father said on radio that he kicked Michigan coach Greg Mattison out of their house after saying that Neal, “wouldn’t get into Michigan if it weren’t for football.”

At that point, Neal's father told U-M's coaching staff to leave the house — he was leaning toward U-M, then threw them out of the house

Neal: "They basically tried to call me stupid in my own house." … Apparently Michigan offended the Neal family quite a bit there
