Tied for best in the Big Ten, including the new West Coast schools.

Must have found a landing spot with more money to be jumping in this late.

Had a 👀 outing in the Cape, up to 95 or 96, and enters the portal.
Pretty shitty after the staff gave him a second chance and he fully committed at his exit meeting.
Then he sucked his next outting with a bunch of walks and only lasted an inning and a 1/3
Would be hilarious if nobody good went after him and he actually has to go to a shittier school because he had one good outing and decided to be a selfish prick.

From Deab in Chunnel chat
Nebraska will add 16 scholarships spread out across baseball, softball, wrestling, soccer and track.
Then, on July 1, 2026, that number will increase from 16 to 36.
The primary concern is that any new scholarships added for 2025 will be deducted from the $20.5 million. Moving forward, the hope is that next year, the newly added scholarships won’t count against your overall rev-share cap.
***As for football, the total number of scholarships for 2025 will fall between 84 and 87, I’m told. The rest will then be paid out in rev-share, as they have been doing in the past with NIL when they were over the 85-scholarship limit.
***Baseball will be the most curious case study here on what Nebraska and other Big Ten schools do moving forward. Many SEC and top ACC schools, over time, will fund the full 34 scholarships.
In the Big Ten, there is a greater emphasis on wrestling and volleyball, two sports where the Conference dominates on the national level.
Once things get to a point where added scholarships don’t count against the rev-share cap, I’m told Nebraska will have at least 25 scholarships committed to baseball. Currently, the number is 11.7 pre-July 1. I know athletic director Troy Dannen feels like they can do baseball and wrestling at a high level at NU, along with the obvious sports like football, men’s and women’s basketball, and volleyball.

"the hope is"
So the number won't increase from 16 to 36 unless their hope comes true.
Hope. Troy Dannen, folks.

cut the grapplin’ program and allocate those to baseball. IMO.

I would be all for this. The bonus would be the meltdown of Bobfather and Hank.
Although Bobfather might actually shoot people in a crowded public place

Tadan Bell in portal probably a better option

He was injured in both 2023 & 2024, and wasn't very sharp this season. He threw a few games and that was it. I'm a big fan of Tadan & the Bell family.
I don't think we're taking any more until the draft is over and a couple guys (current players & portals we're in on) make decisions. Which surprises me we accepted Bruegman's commitment.
