Portal Season Thread



Nebraska updated its online football roster with a dozen new names and no subtractions Monday as the team works through the early portion of winter conditioning.
The roster size had been listed at 144 and jumps to 156 with the changes. The actual number is no higher than 154 though, as NU still includes linebackers Will Honas and Wynden Ho’ohuli even after they entered the transfer portal last week.

Nebraska now acknowledges all nine transfers who arrived on campus this month and are set to participate in spring practices. Those are quarterbacks Casey Thompson (Texas) and Chubba Purdy (Florida State), offensive linemen Hunter Anthony (Oklahoma State) and Kevin Williams (Northern Colorado), receivers Isaiah Garcia-Castaneda (New Mexico State) and Trey Palmer (LSU), defensive backs Tommi Hill (Arizona State) and Omar Brown (Northern Cockeye), and punter Brian Buschini (Montana).


Transfer kicker Timmy Bleekrode (Furman) will arrive this summer, and running back Deondre Jackson (Texas A&M) is planning to do the same after an academic snag prevented him from enrolling in classes this month. Neither are currently on the online roster.
Nebraska also now lists a pair of junior college newcomers in running back Anthony Grant (New Mexico Military Institute) and defensive back Javier Morton (Garden City).



The only previously unknown addition to the roster is walk-on punter Jacob Hohl, a Lincoln Southwest graduate who started at Nebraska Wesleyan the last two seasons.

Nebraska has until Tuesday to add more transfers to its school-record 17 total midyear additions, though that appears unlikely at this point. It also remains in play for at least a pair of 2022 prep prospects in recent official visitors Kylon Griffin (defensive back from Alabama) and Ajay Allen (running back from Louisiana), who is currently a TCU commit.

The traditional signing day is Feb. 2.
Most of the program’s efforts have turned to recruiting the 2023 and 2024 classes. The Huskers held a Junior Day event Saturday and will host another this weekend.
 
Cover 3 podcast said yesterday that they expect Caleb Williams to go to USC but that he’s also considering LSU and WISCONSIN
 
Basically they all said "It's gonna be USC right?.....so what is he waiting on?"

And then Bud Elliott said that there's some smoke around LSU and Wisconsin being in the running and that he might be waiting to see who Wisconsin hires to replace Rudolph?

Someone on RRS was posting about this. Wiscy looking at hiring Raven’s TE coach as OC and that guy has a kid that’s on the Badgers and they went to the same high school as CW.
 
Fuuuuck



Hopefully this is just to get LSU or USC to up their NIL offers.

Sounds like it’s gaining some steam
Does seem like there's smoke. I am going to assume it's USC until he signs elsewhere. Chryst's system is notoriously difficult for young QBs. Sure, they haven't had the best guys there, but there's also a really steep learning curve for young QBs. CW is making a pretty poor business decision if that's where he goes.
 
Jordan Riley has entered the portral

I imagine he was asked to move on
