Nebraska to host rising running back
Nebraska to host rising running back
Nebraska Football is set to get a visit from 2026 running back Jamal Rule. He will visit Nebraska on April 29. He put out a list of his visits earlier this week. The running back measures in at six feet, 205 pounds.
Rule is not ranked in the 247Sports rankings, but his stock is rising. He has 12 offers in total. North Carolina State, Nebraska, and Wisconsin appear to be the three teams most interested in him at this time. On the Nebraska front, he is being recruited by EJ Barthel.
The running back had a tremendous season in 2024, as he really was able to establish his dominance. He recorded 1,236 rushing yards and 15 touchdowns in seven games. He had 100-plus rushing yards in each of those seven games and averaged 176.6 yards per contest, according to statistics from Maxpreps.com.
Currently, the 2026 Nebraska football recruiting class ranks 44th overall nationally with three commitments per the 247Sports Team Rankings.
Rule is undoubtedly a running back whose profile continues to rise. The Huskers need to continue to add depth at the position for the future, and getting a player of Rule's caliber on campus is a step in the right direction.

MSU football predicted to land commitment from 3-star LB Charles Belser
MSU football predicted to land commitment from 3-star LB Charles Belser Michigan State football is trending for a three-star linebacker prospect from Philadelphia. Charles Belser of Philadelphia took an official visit this past weekend, and it apparently went so well that the Spartans are now the projected favorite to land his commitment. Michigan State picked up a 247Sports' crystal ball prediction in their favor for Belser on Tuesday morning. Belser is a three-star prospect, with a recruiting rating of 87 on 247Sports. He ranks as the No. 64 linebacker and No. 807 overall prospect in 247Sports' composite rankings for the 2026 class. Michigan State is one of nearly 15 schools to show interest in Belser by extending him an offer. Some of the other notable schools to offer Belser includes UCF, Virginia Tech, Florida State, Notre Dame, Penn State, Indiana, Pitt, Syracuse, UCLA and Duke. There is no known commitment date for Belser so we will need to keep our eyes peeled for any news surrounding his recruitment. I wouldn't be surprised if an announcement comes out shortly should he in fact elect to become a future Spartan.

Wisconsin football blue-chip 2026 recruiting target predicted to choose a Big Ten rival
Wisconsin football blue-chip 2026 recruiting target predicted to choose a Big Ten rival This past Monday, one of Wisconsin's top class of 2026 targets received a 247Sports crystal ball prediction favoring a Big Ten rival. That is Rockford, Illinois, native Messiah Tilson, who is predicted to commit to Greg Schiano and the Rutgers Scarlet Knights. The prediction came from the 247Sports staff collectively and was given with a 'medium' confidence level. The recruiting service lists Tilson as a four-star recruit. He's specifically ranked as the No. 434 player in the class of 2026, the No. 39 safety and the No. 11 recruit from his home state. Tilson visited the Badgers back on April 23. His other scheduled or completed visits are to Illinois on April 11, Iowa on April 18, Kentucky on June 3, Rutgers recently on June 6, Minnesota on June 13 and Kansas on June 20. Tilson choosing the Scarlet Knights would be a major loss for the Badgers, who felt fairly confident for most of his recruitment. The prediction is noteworthy, as the 247Sports staff has yet to miss a prediction (20-for-20) during the 2026 cycle. The Badgers haven't had as much success to start the 2026 cycle as they experienced in 2024 and 2025. The program did have a strong first official visit weekend, already with five converted commitments. While potentially losing out on a defensive back prospect like Tilson is not ideal, several of Wisconsin's top targets remain on the board.
