4-star Florida WR Jacory Barney is N!!

Barney took an official visit to Nebraska from June 2-4 for the Huskers' first weekend of OVs under head coach Matt Rhule. The Huskers made a strong impression on him during that visit, led by receivers coach Garret McGuire and assistant Phil Simpson – a defensive quality control coach who coached at Florida high schools for nine years, including one season at Miami Palmetto.

Also helping in the recruits efforts were current Huskers Dwight Bootle II and Corey Collier Jr. – both Nebraska defensive backs and former stars at Palmetto – plus Nebraska 2024 commit

Willis McGahee IV
, who played at Palmetto before transferring to Miami's Columbus High School for his senior year.
The addition of the 6-foot, 165-pound four-star prospect gives Nebraska 23 total commitments in the class and marks the team's 14th commitment in the last 14 days.

Barney is the 10th receiver commitment for Rhule and McGuire when combining the 2023 and 2024 cycles. He is the staff's fifth pledge out of Florida as he joins McGahee in 2024, plus Bootle, Syncere Safeeullah and Cameron Lenhardt in 2023.

Nebraska's hot run in June saw the 2024 class surge from being in the high 30s in the national recruiting rankings all the way up to No. 15 in the country. Barney's commitment on the first day of July is the latest boost as the Huskers jumped over Texas A&M for the No. 14 class and increased their lead over Minnesota for the No. 4 class in the Big Ten.
 
I figured he was in when Rhule retweeted the time of his announcement.
