Nebraska Football needs another offensive tackle and Jacob Hood could be the Huskers’ next commitment.
Matt Rhule and the Nebraska Football coaching staff have done an excellent job of meeting the needs of the Transfer Portal. The Huskers have added key players in QB, WR, O-Line, TE, D-Line, EDGE and secondary.
