A future Nebraska quarterback is making headlines on social media. Class of 2024 recruit Dylan Raiola was trending on Monday afternoon after his performance in the Polynesian Bowl long ball competition.
Raiola had throws of 72 and 70 yards, making him the only quarterback in the competition to break 70+ yards. Three future Huskers will be taking part in this year’s all-star game.
Those three participants are Carter Nelson, Dylan Raiola, and Preston Taumua. The game will see the top high school players in the country ‘gather in Hawaii to celebrate culture and play the game they love.’
The two teams will be coached by former Cincinnati Bengals head coach Marvin Lewis and former Minnesota Vikings head coach Mike Zimmer.
The Polynesian Bowl will occur on Friday, January 19, at 8:00 p.m. CT from Kunuiakea Stadium in Honolulu, Hawaii, live on NFL Network.
