Keeping Up With Cody Green

Against Brenham in the Texas Class 4A Division II Region III championship game last weekend, Nebraska QB recruit Cody Green rushed for 260 yards and 2 TDs on only 21 carries and added 71 passing yards with 2 TDs. For this spectacle vs. Brenham, Green was named as the Southwest Regional Football Player of the Week by ESPN RISE football on Wednesday. Green's Dayton High Broncos will play @ Kerrville Tivy High in the state semifinals on Saturday. Interestingly, Dayton's only loss this season came in September vs. Texas Tech QB recruit Jacob Karam from Friendswood.

This season Green has 2,700 passing yards with 28 TDs to go along with 1,400 rushing yards with 25 TDs. That's an impressive 213 yards/passing and 112 yards/rushing per game.
