Luke Siedhoff had multiple track and field scholarship offers, and he set up a few official visits.

"I was like, 'Ah, man, this is incredible. Like, why would I not come here?' " said Siedhoff, a senior hurdler for the Huskers. "And I've always wanted to go to Nebraska. Growing up here, there's really no other place you really want to go, if you have the opportunity."
