Nebraska is inching closer and closer to getting a potential weapon for QB Dylan Raiola that he doesn't really have now

Nebraska shocked the world when it landed five-star quarterback Dylan Raiola over teams like the Georgia Bulldogs. But nowadays, things like that happen, just look at Bryce Underwood this offseason with Michigan and LSU.

With Raiola, the former five-star QB, he looked incredible at times as a true freshman, but he certainly had some "rookie moments," if you will. Some of that was because the team around him wasn't great, or they would have won more games.

So why not go and get him some more weapons? They are trying to do that.


Nebraska is close to landing Luke Sorensen

Luke Sorensen is a tight-end prospect from the 2026 class, playing for Servite High School in Anaheim, California, where he has played so well that there are quite a few schools that want him. And, that's largely because of his size, where he is 6'4" and in between 230-245 pounds. 

Because of his size, he has some elite athleticism that you don't really expect from him, which is another reason why he is earning a three-star rating from 247Sports and a four-star from Rivals. He ranks as the No. 54 tight end and No. 140 player in California per 247Sports, and the No. 19 tight end and No. 32 in the state per Rivals. He has over 25 scholarship offers from schools like Nebraska, Penn State, Ole Miss, Texas, Texas A&M, Miami, USC, Notre Dame, and Alabama.

Sorensen has narrowed his college choices to Nebraska, Ole Miss, and Penn State, with a commitment date set for July 4, 2025. He visited Ole Miss in May 2025 and has official visits planned for Nebraska on June 6 and Penn State on June 13. His size, versatility, and openness to being able to learn and be coached is something that has truly caught some recruiters' eyes with him.

Penn State, Ole Miss, and Nebraska are the three main schools he is looking at, and Nebraska could be the one that fits like a glove, especially when you look at the QB situation with Raiola. Getting him a weapon like Sorensen is something that he hasn't really had yet,
