- Tim Verghese, a recruiting writer for Nebraska Rivals, announces that the Huskers are hosting Youngstown State transfer safety Makai Shahid, who recorded 110 tackles across the 2024 and 2025 seasons at the FCS level, highlighting Nebraska's focus on adding experienced defensive backs via the portal.
