I thought that one of the Bullocks was recognized with something like
the top HS player in Tennessee.

"Daniel was a quarterback in a run-oriented offense at Hixson High in
Chattanooga, Tenn. As a senior, he rushed for 1,432 yards and 21
touchdowns and was the state's Class 4-A 'Mr. Tennessee'.  Nebraska
offered him a chance to play offense, 'but I preferred to stay on
defense,' he said."
