But where are @Lionsfan93 blue balls pointing?

Hindsight is 20/20, but I never expected him to be a Husker. However, I really like our chances with Torres right now. He will be at KSU this weekend, but wouldn't be surprised if he commits by mid-next week.

Florida 3* Hayden Schwartz is visiting

Pretty good chance that Landon Samson commits to us. He's visiting Ohio State next though.

Do we take a commitment from Torres with the Hawaiian QB visiting in a couple of weeks?

I'd say almost certainly. Torres has his "final" visit this weekend to Kstate. Ideally, we can leverage Bianco's visit into a Torres' commit by mid next week.

I believe the staff has Torres higher on their board, but I do think they honestly would take Bianco. He is a huge wildcard though.

Personally, I like Torres more after seeing him this weekend. He just looks like a legit QB prospects. Him and Haarberg are different from any QB he have had in a very long time. Who knows if it will end up being a "better" different, but they are definitely different.

Fong predicts Valen Erickson will be a Nebraska commit

Sounds like there is a good chance that Torres, Samson, Androff, Erickson will all commit soon, per 247 analysts

Curious if we try and see Bianco first or just take Torres's commitment. Hoping we at least get eyes on Bianco first.

Schaefer has mentioned that we will probably take 18-20 guys this year. I'm assuming we will save at least 2 spots for transfers. Assuming we take 18 guys, and based on our current board, our 2022 recruiting class will probably end up looking something like this:

QB (1) - Richard Torres (3* 0.8693)
RB (1) - Justin Williams (3* 0.8749)
WR (2) - VICTOR JONES (3* 0.8552); Landon Samson (3* 0.8466)
TE (1) - CHASE ANDROFF (3* 0.8527)
OL (3) - Jake Maikkula (3* 0.8527); Ashton Craig (3* 0.8627); Valen Erickson (3* 0.8477)

DL (3) - Jamari Lyons (4* 0.8928); Jalen Marshall (3* (0.8627); Hayden Schwartz (3* 0.8728)
LB (4) - Jake Appleget (no rating); ERNEST HAUSMANN (3* 0.8702); Tyler Martin (4* 0.8970); Lamar Washington (3* 0.8863)
CB (2) - Benjamin Morrison (4* 0.9002); James Monds (3* 0.8527)
S (1) - Markeith Williams (4* 0.9108)

ATH - Ja'Corey Thomas (3* 0.8810); Carson Hegerle (3* 0.8627)

That calculates to a 197.01 score on 247. Samson's rating will rise though, and so will Appleget's, and I'm assuming some other guys are going to get higher ratings. So our final class score would be above 200, maybe in the 205ish range, which would put us in the 35-30 range in the team rankings.

Just realized that i put 20 guys in there because i can't add

Since Samson and Appleget don't have ratings, I removed them from the calculation and left Thomas and Hegerle in there. I'm assuming Samson and Appleget will have similar ratings.

That puts us at 18 commits with a score of 201.36, so we are still in the 35-30 range.

Alternatively, lets assume that we get the best players on our board, or there are some highly rated players out there that we don't know about who end up committing, and some of our guys get ratings bumps, and we end up with a class like this:

4* .91
4* .91
4* .90
4* .90
4* .89
4* .89

3* .88
3* .88
3* .88

3* .87
3* .87
3* .87
3* .87

3* .86
3* .86
3* .86
3* .86

3* .85

That will give us a 247 class score of 213is, maybe 215ish. That would give us a top 25ish recruiting class.
