Jon Nyatawa Omaha World-Herald

Junior college cornerback Mohammed Seisay announced on Twitter and Facebook Tuesday night that he plans to play football at Nebraska.

He’s the ninth known member of the Huskers’ 2012 recruiting class. Seisay, 6-foot-2, 200 pounds, picked the Huskers over Arkansas.

Seisay, from Eastern Arizona College, is expected to sign a letter of intent Wednesday — when the signing period beings for mid-year junior college transfers. He’ll have two years of eligibility at NU.

It’s an important addition for Nebraska, which will lose talented senior corner Alfonzo Dennard after the Capital One Bowl.

Seisay’s tweet Tuesday night: “I would like to say that I WILL BE A BLACKSHIRT.”
