Article from The Southern this morning. One of the under the radar parts of the rebuild, at least coming into the season:

don't know how under the radar he was... ive been pretty excited about him. Theres a reason he was recruited by a big 10 school, and its not just because it was Nebraska... the kid can flat out play. Only question I had was if he would recover from his injury.
We have to keep in mind that the kid is a freshman coming off a serious injury and a long period of inactivity. He will be up and down most of this season. From what I have observed though, when he is on, he is a big talented guard who can play anywhere with potential all over the place. I thought he looked a step slow against the turds and a bit tentative. As long as he gets minutes though he will continue to improve and we will need him as the Dawgs become a team to be reckoned with. Its early but I like his talent, effort and demeanor.

Yeah there were a couple times on Saturday when I thought he looked hurt but it's more than likely that he's still getting up to speed.
