It's been clear that the Nebraska football team has changed the way it's reloading for the 2026 season. While its high school recruiting has been anything other than impressive, it's taken aim at the JUCO ranks over the last few weeks. Along those lines, Taylor Schaefer is the latest big target who will see what the Huskers have to offer up close and personal.
Schaefer, a linebacker from Iowa Central C.C., is one of the most sought-after JUCO players at his position in the class. He's gotten a ton of attention from major programs. Iowa State was one of the leaders in his pursuit, but the Huskers are thought to be big-time contenders.
