The Nebraska Cornhuskers have been an aggressive team in the transfer portal. Matt Rhule and his staff have added 16 players to their roster for the class of 2025, and according to 247Sports, it is one of the top classes in the nation.
Five of the incoming transfers play on the offensive side of the ball, nine players will play for the Blackshirts, and two of the new additions will play for the special teams unit.
It’s been surprising to see how aggressive Nebraska has been in the portal. Head coach Matt Rhule has said that the program could see 35-50 players depart this offseason. The new 105-man roster limit has been cited as the biggest factor in the mass departures from the team.
How do the Huskers stack up against the top 15 portal classes in college football? Find the ranking of Nebraska’s transfer portal class of 2025 by 247Sports by scrolling below.
