Tagaloa
Steven M. Sipple, Parker Gabriel and Chris Basnett talk through the ever-evolving coaching searches that Nebraska football and head coach Scott Frost are currently conducting in this episode.
Brodie Tagaloa didn’t wait long after visiting Nebraska to decide where he wanted to play college football.
The 6-foot-4, 260-pounder officially visited Nebraska in recent days and verbally committed to NU on Sunday afternoon, soon after he got back to his home in San Francisco.
Nebraska defensive line coach Tony Tuioti was in California on Monday to see three-star prospect Tagaloa. The 6-foot-4, 260-pounder, who attends De La Salle High, is rated by both major recruiting services as a tight end, but Tuioti and the Huskers like him on defense. Following the visit from Tuioti, Tagaloa arrived on campus in the middle of the week for his official visit. His De La Salle high school team lost in a state playoff game on Friday night.
Tagaloa is the latest in a line of siblings to play for De La Salle and end up moving on to college ball. His older brother, Boss, played offensive line for UCLA and another brother, Beaux, began his career at San Jose State and now plays for Cal.
Brodie, then, is moving further away from home than his siblings.
Tagaloa becomes the 10th overall member — and the first defensive lineman — in Nebraska’s 2022 recruiting class.
The Huskers had a trio of high school players in for official visits in recent days in Tagaloa and high school defensive backs Malcolm Hartzog (Prentiss, Mississippi) and Jaeden Gould (Oradell, New Jersey) in addition to FCS Abilene Christian transfer defensive back Ryan Stapp. Nebraska, though, is clearly not done looking for help on defense in the 2022class.
