Nebraska High School Players - Class of 2024


Mavric

Recommended Posts


I first ran this back in 2020.  Updated now.

 

It's pretty crazy how down Class A was for quite awhile and how it has turned quickly the last few years.

 

Here are the top five prospects from Nebraska according to the 247 Composite and which class they played in high school.  Players the Husker got are highlighted red.  Players are crossed out if they didn't go to a Power 5 school (Marsh originally walked-on at NU then transferred).

 

2024 - Nelson (D), Hall (A), McMorris (A), Kaelin (A), Pyfrom (A)

2023 - Coleman (A), Flores (A), McIntyre (C), Gottula (A), Noonan (A)

2022 - Jackson (A), Woods (A), Helms (A), Riley-Ducker (A), Stenger (A)

2021 - Dickerson (A), K. Johnson (A), Carnie (B), Prochazka (A), Bretz (A)

2020 - Betts (A), Watts (A), Swanson (A), Ducker (A), Gifford (A)

2019 - Henrich (A), Hickman (A), Nelson (B), Snodgrass (B), Piper (C)

2018 - Jurgens (B), Mapieu (B), Williams (A), Schlager (B), Stai (B)

2017 - Allen (B), Walker (A), Bradley (A), Strom (A), Kitrell (B)

2016 - Fant (A), Bubak (C), Stille (C), Manchigiah (A), Cromer (B)

2015 - Neal (A), Decker (A), Holtorf (B), Johnson (A), Strong (A)

2014 - Foster (A), Phillips (A), Stoltenberg (B), Gifford (A), Rose (A)

2013 - Banderas (A), LaCouture (A), Minter (A), Bazata (D), Sayles (A)

2012 - Bender (A), Ott (D), Cotton (A), Rahmings (C), Grigsby (A)

2011 - Reeves (B), Sterup (C), Davie (B), Fisher (A), Lampkin (A)

2010 - Rodriguez (B), Evans (B), Dietz (A), Cotton (A), Marsh (A)

2009 - Lechner (A), Sellers (B), Zimmerer (B), Pensick (A), Davis (A)

 

From 2009 to 2018, only 11 class A players have signed with the Huskers and two of them (I believe) were walk-ons.  Five from Class A went to other Power 5 schools though LaCouture shouldn't really count.

 

Over that same time frame, Class B produced 8 Huskers (two walk-ons).  So Class A only produced three more scholarship Huskers over those 10 years than Class B did.

 

For perspective, using current enrollment numbers but adjusting for how many schools have been in Classes A and B during the time frame above (it was changed in 2018), Class A has approximately 238% of the number of boys enrolled in school as Class B has.

 

In the six years since then, Class A has produced 13 Huskers and 9 other Power 5 players (Pyfrom pending).  And there have only been 3 non-Class A players in the Top five over the last five years.

Flores went to Gretna, which is a Class A school.

It's Nelson from Ainsworth, which is D2?
