Bonner has made several trips to Nebraska over the last year. He took two unofficial visits to Lincoln on July 2 and November 2. He is set to visit Washington on April 25.
The running back is a dynamic player. He recorded 497 carries for 1,493 yards and 25 touchdowns, according to statistics from Maxpreps.com. He had seven games of 100-plus rushing yards and averaged 135.7 yards per game. He was effective as soon as he got the ball, averaging 7.6 yards per carry.
Nebraska is certainly going to have competition for Bonner. Nevertheless, they have been steadfast in his recruitment and are known to be strong on the recruiting trail.
