Nebraska Football Opens Fall Camp Amid Position Battles, USC QB Set for November

As Nebraska Cornhuskers football prepares for the 2025 season, several key developments have emerged from Big Ten Media Days. Former Nebraska wide receiver Malachi Coleman, now with Minnesota, is highly praised by his new coach PJ Fleck and is expected to be a significant asset against the Huskers in their matchup. Nebraska's offensive line features a competitive battle at right tackle, with Tyler Knaak currently named the starter, while quarterback Dylan Raiola has earned respect from Big Ten rivals and is seen as a foundational piece of Nebraska's offense. USC has confirmed Jayden Maiava as their starting quarterback for their November 1 game against Nebraska, following his strong finish to the 2024 season; Nebraska coach Matt Rhule anticipates a challenging but exciting contest. Meanwhile, Nebraska baseball faces setbacks after losing promising recruit Carter Gwost to the MLB, but football recruiting gains momentum with 5-star prospect Tory Pittman showing interest in the Huskers. Despite these changes, Nebraska’s coaching staff emphasizes continuity and stability, particularly on defense, aiming to maintain their top-20 national ranking with new players and coordinators stepping into key roles.
