Nebraska’s scholarship ranks at wide receiver are growing. 

Offensive coordinator Matt Lubick said on the “Sports Nightly” radio program that both Wyatt Liewer and Levi Falck have been placed on scholarship this summer. 

“Well earned, well deserved,” Lubick said. 

Falck was a walk-on graduate transfer from South Dakota who is back for a second season at Nebraska thanks the the extra year granted to everybody by the NCAA. 

Liewer, an O’Neill native, is going into his fourth year in the program. 

Both saw extensive playing time for the Huskers in 2020. 

Falck played in all eight games and started four for the Huskers in 2020, catching 13 passes for 122 and a touchdown. Those totals were good for third and fourth, respectively, on the team. 

“He’s only been here for a year, but our other guys look at him as a leader because of how hard he works,” Lubick said. “He’s kind of embraced that role, especially in the summer time when coaches, we’re limited in what we can do. He’s done a good job of organizing workouts with those guys and those guys listen to him.” 

Liewer also played in all eight games for Nebraska and caught three passes for 22 yards and a touchdown after not appearing in a game for his first two seasons in Lincoln. He caught his first career touchdown against Purdue.
