Nebraska Lands Four-Star QB Trae Taylor

Nebraska football landed a major recruiting win with four-star quarterback Trae Taylor, the No. 3 QB in the 2027 class, choosing the Huskers over Texas A&M, LSU, and Illinois due to the offensive fit and strong coaching relationships. The Cornhuskers have also streamlined their roster post-spring to 123 players, prioritizing defensive depth and a quarterback room led by Dylan Raiola. Analyst Adam Carriker highlighted improvements in Nebraska’s physicality, offensive line, and linebacker versatility following spring practices, though some questions remain. The team plans to address remaining personnel needs over the summer. Meanwhile, LSU climbed into the top 10 of USA Today’s post-spring rankings, driven by strong transfer additions and high expectations for quarterback Garrett Nussmeier. LSU is preparing for a season-opening matchup against Clemson.
