Nebraska offers class of 2027 Missouri wide receiver
Nebraska football offered class of 2027 wide receiver Justyn Lindsay on Saturday. Lindsay made the announcement on social media. The wide receiver was a part of Nebraska's Friday camp, where quarterback Trae Taylor was also in attendance. Advertisement Lindsay measures in at six-foot-one, 150 pounds. He currently plays at Blue Springs South High School in Missouri. Currently, the 2027 Nebraska football recruiting class has one commitment in Trae Taylor. The latter has been very active with the program over the past couple of months, having attended several camps in June. The Huskers have attempted to open the Missouri pipeline over the past couple of recruiting classes. Wide receiver Isaiah Mozee is one example in the 2025 class, and Jamar Mozee is a senior football assistant for the program. He has heavily recruited the Missouri area. Nebraska's camps have yielded several offers over the past couple of weeks, and that is certainly a positive sign.

Nebraska and Trae Taylor making push for highly-touted 2027 offensive tackle
Nebraska and Trae Taylor making push for highly-touted 2027 offensive tackle Class of 2027 Nebraska football quarterback commit Trae Taylor was busy over the weekend, as he was on campus actively recruiting as well as participating in the Battle of the Boneyard tournament. Taylor was active on social media and encouraged Nebraska fans to show love to Mark Matthews. Matthews is the seventh overall player nationally in the 2027 class, the second overall offensive tackle, and the top player in his class, per the On3 recruiting rankings. This was his first time in Lincoln, and he has taken three other unofficial visits. He has taken two visits to Miami on February 1 and March 18, and he also visited the Florida Gators on March 14. It will be tough to pull Matthews out of the state of Florida. Nevertheless, Nebraska has been making Florida a priority recruiting area, and they have been able to land several players out of the state. They are beginning to recruit heavily for the 2027 class, and Matthews would be viewed as a cornerstone commitment.
