Barfield brings veteran size and interior juice to Nebraska’s defensive front
Shukree Barfield entered Nebraska as a 6-foot-4, 310-pound defensive tackle after two seasons at Garden City (Kan.) CC, and the public profile around him emphasized size, athleticism, and pass-rush upside rather than flashy stat-stuffing. Nebraska listed him as a key reserve in 2007 and noted he had the frame to be a disruptive nose guard who could help anchor the interior while still offering some backfield pressure. If you want a big, experienced lineman who can eat space, hold gaps, and bring mature JUCO polish, he fits the bill.
