The Nebraska Cornhuskers have reportedly offered a deal to Arizona's defensive backs coach, Donte Williams, to join their staff.

Williams is widely touted for his recruiting abilities, being one of the best recruiters in the West.  He's spent time as a defensive backs coach at San Jose State, where he also served as recruiting coordinator as well as an internship with the Seattle Seahawks.

Williams has only been with Arizona for one year, and the offer includes a significant pay increase.  A decision is expected to be made soon as Nebraska hopes Williams can start recruiting for them on the road before the recruiting period ends on December 12th.
