Mason Goldman Commits with Nebraska Football | Matt Rhule Lands In-State OL out of 2023 Class



Breaking: Nebraska gets commitment from in-state OT Mason Goldman


Gretna (Neb.) offensive tackle Mason Goldman has given a commitment to Nebraska. The visit comes following Goldman‘s official visit with the Huskers this weekend. He had also attended a recruiting event at Nebraska the weekend before and offensive coordinator Marcus Satterfield had also been by the school shortly after he took over at Nebraska. Mickey Joseph had extended an offer to Goldman when he was the Huskers' interim coach. He said at the time that it was a meaningful offer because he grew up watching the Huskers.

Husker Doc Talk: Cautiously Optimistic
Taking stock of Matt Rhule’s first few weeks on the job and more


Have you missed us? It's been a while, since we've taken a couple of weeks off in between podcasts. Blame Travis! He decided to escape to Europe for a couple of weeks so he could pout about his Hawkeyes losing to Nebraska and avoid Dr. Rob living rent-free inside his head!

Husker Doc Talk Podcast #40

Travis Justice is back from his European vacation and in the studio with Dr. Rob Zatechka.
They tackle a number of different subjects, including Mickey Joesph being officially let go. Donovan Raiola is being retained as the O-line coach, the transfer portal, and much more.

Ben Scott has announced that Nebraska Football will be his destination out of the transfer portal



Huskers land transfer commit from three-year O-line starter Ben Scott


The Huskers continue to add some key pieces from the portal. Ben Scott is certainly a big one – 310 pounds to be exact. But it's his resume that is of larger matter than what the scale shows. The offensive lineman who comes by way of Arizona State announced Friday his intentions to join the Nebraska program, with his many logged snaps at the college level sure to make him a strong candidate to come in and start on Nebraska's front five. Having redshirted in 2019, and with the COVID eligibility freeze of 2020, he still has two years to play two. Scott told Husker247 the plan is to work at center. He'll begin classes in January.

Rating the Husker ’23 Class
Who are the new players who will impact the football program this fall?


As we all know, the early signing date for high school football recruits was less than a month ago. For new Husker head football coach Matt Rhule, the early signing date (12/21) was just three weeks into his Husker stint. In that time, Rhule and his then yet-to-be-completed coaching staff somehow put together a Top 30 (Rivals.com) class. We'll take a look at some of the players who have a chance to make a difference this fall.

Transfer portal players

This year's Husker transfers all come from Power Five programs (Kai Wallin came from a JUCO). They have proven track records of performance. Experience at that level of play usually translates into significant playing time and positive results at their new schools. The players aren't listed in any particular order.

Jeff Sims QB 6-4, 220 lbs (Georgia Tech)
Josh Fleeks WR 5-10, 190 (Baylor) 6th year senior
Ben Scott (Center) 6-5, 290 (Arizona State)
Chief Borders LB 6-4, 240 (Florida)
Corey Collier, Jr. DB 6-2, 170 (Florida)
Elijah Jeudy (Edge Rusher) 6-4, 240 (Florida)
Marco Ortiz (Deep Snapper) 6-4, 236 (Florida)

High school signees

We'll look at a few of the class of '23 players who might have a chance to contribute this fall. Again, the list is not in any particular order. And by no means is this a slight on any of the new signees who aren't mentioned.

Malachi Coleman (WR/Athlete) 6-5 205 (Lincoln East H.S.)
Tristan Alvano 6-2, 185 PK (Omaha Westside)
Jaylen Lloyd WR/Athlete 5-11, 160 (Omaha Westside)

JUCO player

So far there has been only one junior college transfer in Rhule's first recruiting class.

Kai Wallin (Edge Rusher) 6-6, 240 (American River California CC)
