At one point we were the favorites in his recruitment. He had some really fun film iirc
And this is a couple hours old.
This cat started like 20+ games at safety. Good take.
This is neither a prosecution or defense of Matt Rhule and Nebraska.
But Indiana is the exception to the rule. A school that terrible historically should not be in the spot it is now. Cignetti is a statistical and data unicorn.
Funny though…. Jason Eck on Paper could be the “next” Cignetti if you’re looking for one …
Having a safety that can figure out where the ball carrier will be by the time he catches up would be a game changer.
Gigachad ass linebacker #yes
?
I’m guessing the KSU or there is a DT from Okie State we’re following. Don’t have names off the top of my head.
Is it the kstate Dlineman?
The transfer portal has officially opened as of midnight, Jan. 2 and news is coming fast as favorites are already emerging and visits are being lined up for as soon as later today. Nebraska is already closing in on a transfer quarterback and expecting close to, if not more than, double-digit visitors in the coming days.
Here’s a running list of intel as Nebraska gets busy in the portal.
Standout LB target sets visit
San Diego State linebacker Owen Chambliss tells me he’ll be visiting Nebraska this weekend, Jan 3-4. The 6-foot-3, 230lb junior linebacker led the Aztecs with 110 tackles, to go with four sacks and 9.5 tackles for loss. He’d bring valuable experience and athleticism to a Nebraska linebacker room that needs it. He’s garnering serious Power Four interest, and noted he’s still figuring out additional visits, but the Huskers would like to secure his commitment while he’s in town.Transfer QB target emerging
On3’s Steve Wiltfong and Pete Nakos has logged a prediction for Nebraska to land Notre Dame transfer quarterback Kenny Minchey, who announced his intentions to open the portal last month after three seasons with the Fighting Irish. Minchey officially entered the portal on Wednesday with a ‘do not contact’ tag, indicating he knows where he’s going.This will move quickly for the Huskers as Dana Holgorsen noted the dominoes will fall quickly. Minchey battled with CJ Carr for the starting job at Notre Dame this past offseason and nearly won, and now hits the portal to find an opportunity to start. He completed 20 of 26 pass attempts for 212 yards in five games of reserve action this fall. Though he lacks experience, he was heralded coming out of high school as a high-level game manager with the tools to elevate an offense. He has the traits Nebraska is looking for: quick release, accurate across all three levels of the field, arm strength to push the ball downfield and the mobility to extend plays.
Nebraska is also a program to watch for Kentucky transfer quarterback Cutter Boley, but Arizona State is the favorite to land the 6-foot-5 signal caller who threw for 2,160 yards and 15 touchdowns with 12 interceptions after taking over the starting role this fall. He has three years of eligibility remaining.
Huskers set to host top transfer IOL
Per On3’s Hayes Fawcett, Nebraska will get the first visit from Cockeye State right guard Brendan Black, who stands 6-fooot-4, 320lbs with 30 starts under belt across three seasons with the Cyclones. Black is scheduled to visit South Carolina as well Jan 6-7, the Huskers would ideally like to prevent that trip from happening and get the impact guard locked down while he’s in Lincoln this weekend.Latest on SDSU defenders
Nebraska is expected to get an early visit from San Diego State transfer linebacker Owen Chamblissand the Huskers will look to move fast to secure the leading tackler from Rob Aurich’s defense in 2025. Chambliss totaled 110 tackles, to go with four sacks and 9.5 tackles for loss. At 6-foot-3, 230lbs with two years of experience he’d bring valuable experience and athleticism to the second level of the Huskers’ defense. Top Power Four programs are battling here though, can Nebraska lock him down before other programs get a chance to impress?Nebraska is far from a lock to land touted San Diego State edge rushers Trey White and Ryan Henderson. White enters the portal as one of the top edges on the market and will have multiple College Football Playoff contenders in the mix, including Texas Tech. The Red Raiders are the program to watch early on per On3’s Pete Nakos. Henderson has one visit set thus far, to Houston.
Latest on DL targets
As first reported at Inside Nebraska last week, the Huskers are expected to get an early visit from New Mexico State transfer defensive lineman Ezra Christensen, an early defensive tackle target on the board. This fall, the 6-foot-2, 280lb defensive tackle recorded recorded 42 tackles, eleven tackles for loss and six sacks, to go with ten quarterback hurries. Since announcing his intentions to enter the transfer portal, he’s received interest from the likes of Texas Tech, Penn State, Oregon, Colorado, Baylor and Minnesota through his representation.Kansas State transfer defensive lineman Malcolm Alcorn-Crowder and USC transfer defensive lineman Carlon Jones are two other defensive linemen to monitor early for the Huskers. On3’s Pete Nakos reports the Huskers are among programs in the mix for Tulane transfer defensive lineman Tre’Von McAlpine. The 6-foot-3, 305lb junior recorded 35 tackles and a sack this fall. Kansas, Illinois, Kansas State, Texas A&M and Auburn are others in the running.
