Today officially kick-starts my annual breakdown of the recent college football recruiting cycle. Over the next several days, I'll focus on each position group and highlight every player who signed with Nebraska in December and February.

I'll start things off today like I do every year by revealing my top 40 recruiting classes. Until Matt Rhule was hired, I didn't think Nebraska would have a spot on this list. The Huskers were outside the top 60 when Rhule and this new staff took over. It took an extraordinary effort by this staff to cross the finish line where they did today. I'm really interested in watching how this staff works having an entire year to build the 2024 class. I anticipate Nebraska being one of the hot teams on the recruiting trail for the upcoming cycle.

Tomorrow, I'll release my ranking of Nebraska's signees.
