As Matt Rhule works through year three as the head coach of the Nebraska Cornhuskers, he is also hard at work recruiting the next class of football Huskers.

Nebraska's class currently consists of four commits. In a new world of roster limits and increasing use of the transfer portal, that number is still expected to reach double digits every year.
