Nebraska to receive visit from former Washington signee

The Nebraska Cornhuskers will be hosting a former Washington commitment in the near future.

The Nebraska Cornhuskers will play host to a former Washington Huskies defensive signee in the near future.

According to Adam Gorney of Rivals, 2024 defensive end Keona Wilhite plans to visit Nebraska after he visits Michigan State this weekend. While Gorney didn’t mention Nebraska by name in his tweet, he tagged Rivals’ Nebraska team site, Inside Nebraska, and site publisher Zack Carpenter.

Wilhite is ranked by Rivals as a four-star prospect and a top-15 player in the state of Arizona. A native of Tuscon, Arizona, Wilhite also holds offers from Arizona, BYU, Colorado, Oregon State, Michigan State, UCLA and, of course, Washington.

After committing and signing with Washington, Wilhite was recently released from his letter of intent following the departure of head coach Kalen DeBoer, who took the head coaching job last week at Alabama.

The Huskers hold 28 commitments in their 2024 recruiting class, and all of them signed during the early signing period.
