Nebraska 2023 TE target Andrew Metzger has committed to Kansas State. The Aurora, Colorado native decommitted from Colorado last week and was on campus for a Nebraska OV during the Dec. 9-11 weekend. Metzger's teammate at Regis Jesuit (Colo.), LB Hayden Moore, just flipped from Nebraska to Michigan today.

His NIL deal is pretty good. DC is hooking him up lovely to come here.

WTF?

Hey, everyone. It's been a day.

It's time for our weekly live chat with @Foremanjay5655. Get your questions in here now and Jay will come in at 8 p.m. and answer them until 9 p.m.

And in case you missed it, Jay and I took a closer look at Georgia Tech transfer quarterback Jeff Sims, who committed to the Huskers on Sunday:

One of you tech savvy young guns need to drop a picture of Rhule into a gif standing between two red Lambos with white N's on the doors. Then, put a Louis Vuitton bag full of NIL cash over his shoulder for good measure.

Class of 2023 DT Vincent Carroll-Jackson is committed to Syracuse, but it appears as if he is reconsidering his decision. It appears he has locked in a time and date to announce a new decision and will make that announcement at 3 p.m. on National Signing Day (Wednesday). I'm assuming that's 3 p.m. ET for the Pennsylvania native.

The 6-5, 280-pounder is a three-star in the 2023 class. He's been briefly committed to Syracuse. He was offered by Nebraska on Dec. 7, committed to Syracuse on Dec. 11, but the Huskers have made a strong push to flip him. He took an official visit to Lincoln over the weekend, and we are told that his decision is coming down to two options: stay committed to Syracuse or flip to Nebraska.

Hard to draw up a better start, if you're being realistic.

Had a quick back and forth with Nebraska wide receiver commit Barry Jackson today. He let me know that he will be taking his extra official visit to Nebraska this weekend.

Jackson will also sign with Nebraska on Dec. 21 and enroll at Nebraska in January. I know there was some concern on the board about him sticking with the Huskers and many assumed he would not. He's an under-the-radar talent in my opinion that the Huskers needed to keep.

Rivals national recruiting analyst @Clint Cosgrove put a spotlight on the Midwest with his five Early Signing Day predictions – including the two-team race for Malachi Coleman.

According to the OWH, he has a commitment party scheduled for Wednesday from 7 - 9 PM Central Time to announce/celebrate his decision. He of course visited Nebraska but he's such a hot commodity on the transfer market that any thing is possible.

Looks like Vincent Carroll-Jackson, a three-star DL recruit in the 2023 class out of Harrisburg, Penn., finished up his official visit:

Jeff Sims just announced his transfer to Nebraska. Sims is a three-star in the Rivals transfer rankings and was a four-star ranked as the No. 11 dual-threat QB coming out of high school in the 2020 class.

Signing Day Light Show

CAMERON LENHARDT wasn't he suppose to recommit soon?

OT Ajani Cornelius, the Huskers' No. 1 transfer portal target, has set his decision date for Wednesday, Dec. 21 and will announce at 6 p.m. ET

Cornelius, a 6-foot-5, 310-pounder from Rhode Island, is one of the most highly sought after transfers on the market. Nebraska got his first OV over the Dec. 9-11 weekend, but I'm not feeling good about the Huskers' chances. He landed over two dozen FBS offers after he entered the portal, including Oregon, Tennessee and Ohio State. He took OVs to all three after his Nebraska visit, and I know Ohio State is feeling good coming off the visit.

Not related to recruiting but there apparently is a lot of negotiations behind the scenes going on to try to allow Texas and Oklahoma out of the Big 12 a year early to join the SEC in 2024. Apparently the SEC wants to match B1G timing for adding USC and UCLA and Texas/Oklahoma just can't wait to start getting their asses whipped. Requires some negotiated buy out paid to the remaining Big 12 teams, maybe $80 million or so.

Looking for a list of those that have committed to Nebraska as transfers. I know they are not on the commitment list. Just looking for a complete list of all "new" huskers.

and End rusher Princewell Umanmielen
Add in OT Mason Goldman.
That makes 9 from the Golden Rhule and 9 from the previous staff.

From the Nebraska athletics communication dept:

Matt Rhule will hold a Signing Day press conference on Wednesday, beginning at 2:30 p.m. The press conference will be held on the 6th Floor of West Stadium and will be streamed live on Huskers.com.
