Brandon Baker is the top offensive tackle in the country for the 2024 recruiting cycle. He just so happens to be showing up in Lincoln this weekend to take in the atmosphere of Memorial Stadium on game day.
This past week Baker tweeted out his Top Five which includes Nebraska. The other four are Texas, Oregon, Ohio State and Florida State.
At this point Nebraska is a long shot. It is still worth getting him on campus, especially for a night game, because you never know how that could impact a kid.
Hopefully Rhule and Raiola have an NIL package that rivals or exceeds those other schools and maybe Nebraska can walk away from this weekend knowing they have a shot. At this point that would be a win.

Here’s why we shouldn’t be so quick to assume the Jets are doomed without Aaron Rodgers
A quarterback away.
When the New York Jets began their long offseason odyssey to motor into a Super Bowl window in 2023, that’s what one high-ranking team official described to Yahoo Sports as the last missing spark plug. The defense was young and promising, with uniquely dominant centerpieces in All-Pro defensive tackle Quinnen Williams and shutdown cornerback Sauce Gardner. The backfield had depth and talent, with Breece Hall striking a perfect balance with budding star wideout Garrett Wilson. Even with an offensive line in a state of flux, the right player lining up behind center could turn the key on everything immediately.
