Terry on why he chose Nebraska

“The final factor of Nebraska was the relationships I have with the coaches,” Terry said. “I believe I built an incredible relationship with Knighton, Omar, White, and Coach Rhule. They made me a priority to them, not just being instate but priority to them as a person and player. Staying close to home was a big thing with me and my family. Growing up in Nebraska and always watching them play was awesome. So having the chance and then being able to commit to Nebraska was awesome. I know Coach Rhule wants to win, and I want to be in that process of bringing back championships and winning with them.”

“My relationship with Nebraska head coaches is special, I know I can come up to Nebraska at any time. I can call them at any time. I’m most close with Omar or Knighton. The plan with me is to play interior defensive line in the 3-3-5. And play fast and physical.”
