In a significant recruiting win for the Huskers, Nebraska has secured a verbal commitment from three-star EDGE rusher Ma’atoe Moe of Provo (Utah) Timpview High School. The 6-foot-4, 245-pound prospect announced his decision to join the Cornhuskers on Sunday following an official visit to Lincoln, flipping his commitment from Minnesota.  Moe first drew serious interest from Nebraska this spring. Edge rushers coach Roy Manning evaluated him in early May, leading to a scholarship offer. What followed was a direct recruiting battle between the Golden Gophers and the Huskers. Minnesota had offered Moe back in March and hosted him for an…

The Nebraska Cornhuskers added a massive piece to their 2027 recruiting haul on Sunday when three-star tight end Joey Hunter committed to head coach Matt Rhule and the program. The 6-foot-6, 255-pound Hunter, who attends Loganville (Ga.) Grayson High School becomes the latest in-state Georgia prospect to buy into Rhule’s vision for the program, and even crazier, the fourth Grayson player to commit to Nebraska in this class. He chose the Huskers after an official visit over the June 5 weekend, turning down final interest from NC State, North Carolina, Pittsburgh, Syracuse, and others.  Hunter is ranked the No. 60…

Nebraska has secured a commitment from four-star cornerback Bryce Williams of Fort Lauderdale (Fla.) Western High School. The 6-foot-2, 175-pound defensive back pledged to the Cornhuskers on Saturday, during an official visit to Lincoln. Williams, a consensus four-star recruit, chose Nebraska over a strong list of finalists that included Oklahoma, North Carolina, Clemson, Colorado, and others. He had been trending toward the Huskers for much of the year after initially committing to Florida State. Oklahoma made a late push, hosting him for an official visit the previous weekend, but Nebraska’s consistent recruiting effort, particularly from defensive backs coach Addison Williams,…

Football in Nebraska no longer waits for September. The state’s brand-new Arena League expansion team, the Nebraska Siege, opened its inaugural regular-season campaign yesterday and wasted no time reminding everyone that a new era of pro football has arrived in the Cornhusker State.  Coming off a jaw-dropping 78-0 preseason blowout, the Siege entered their home opener against the Memphis Hound Dogs as heavy favorites. But as every coach will tell you, preseason and the regular season are two different animals. Memphis arrived in Grand Island loaded with battle-tested talent from junior college all the way to the NFL, a veteran…

The Huskers’ run to the WCWS marks their eighth appearance in program history and…

Aliu chose Nebraska over a strong list of suitors, including power programs like Georgia, Florida, Clemson, Illinois, and Syracuse.

Nebraska added another piece to its 2027 class on Thursday, landing a commitment from three-star interior offensive lineman Kendrayis “KD” Jones of Grayson High School in Loganville, Georgia. Jones announced his decision to join the Cornhuskers, becoming the second Grayson offensive lineman to commit to Nebraska. He follows high school teammate Jordan Agbanoma, who pledged to Nebraska on Wednesday. The commitments from Jones and Agbanoma were not a coordinated package deal. Instead, each made his own independent choice after building strong individual relationships with Nebraska’s coaching staff. Jones told 247Sports that the move “felt meant to be.” Jones stands…
