Dylan Raiola calls out a play to his team

The Nebraska Cornhuskers football coaching staff is pulling out all the stops in the recruitment of Dylan Raiola. The top quarterback and possibly the top prospect in the 2024 class is a free agent at the moment after initially being a commit to the Ohio State Buckeyes.

This weekend, the Huskers really pulled out all the stops by sending no less than nine coaches to talk to Dylan Raiola. It’s clear that the Nebraska Cornhuskers believe showering the quarterback with attention is the way to go.

That’s despite the fact that there are definitely people who think he’s leaning elsewhere. After all, Georgia and USC are hard after him as well.

It’s hard to know just how well things are going to go for the Nebraska Cornhuskers in their efforts to land the sought after QB. This whole thing could go on for quite a few more months.
