Tight end target reaffirms Florida State commitment

Chase Loftin is staying in Tallahassee.

Class of 2025 four-star tight end and Nebraska football recruiting target Chase Loftin reaffirmed his commitment to Florida State on Monday night.

Loftin is a four-star tight end. According to the On3 recruiting rankings, he is the 24th overall player in the 2025 class and the second overall player in his class from the state of Nebraska.

The tight end originally committed to the Seminoles on June 29, shortly after taking an official visit to Tallahassee. The Huskers certainly made a push for Loftin. He visited Lincoln several times over the last year. He took visits on January 20, April 6, April 27, and November 2, and he also took an official visit on June 21.

The 2025 class has seen movement at the tight-end position over the past couple of days. Three-star TE Bear Tenney de-committed from the program last week.

Loftin would have been a big get for Nebraska football. Nevertheless, as Early Signing Day gets underway, Wednesday may have more positive surprises.

Report: Huskers locked in recruiting battle for 4-star TE

Chase Loftin still has the Huskers in the mix.

The Nebraska football program is locked in a recruiting battle for 2025 four-star tight end Chase Loftin. The Florida State Seminoles are the other team vying for his services. According to a report from On3’s Steve Wilfong, Loftin is trending in that direction.

According to the On3 recruiting rankings, Loftin is the 24th overall player in the 2025 recruiting class and the second overall player from Nebraska.

The Nebraska native has been to Lincoln multiple times over the last year. He visited Nebraska on January 20, April 6, April 27, and November 2. Those visits were unofficial. He took one official visit to the campus on June 21.

Loftin told Wilfong that he is considering Nebraska but that Florida State is still the frontrunner. The class of 2025 is still strong for a class that ranks 21st in the country, per the On3 recruiting rankings.

Loftin would add dynamic playmaking ability to the Huskers’ offense. Nevertheless, they appear to be on the outside looking in.

Huskers predicted to land in-state tight end target

Chase Loftin got a prediction in favor of the Huskers on Monday morning

Class of 2025 Florida State tight end commit Chase Loftin has been predicted to flip to the Huskers. On3’s Steve Wiltfong put in a prediction for him on Monday morning.

According to the On3 recruiting rankings, the tight end is ranked the 22nd overall player at his position and the second overall player in his class from the state of Nebraska.

Loftin is scheduled to visit Lincoln on Saturday when the Huskers take on the UCLA Bruins. He officially committed to Florida State on June 26. His primary recruiter is offensive coordinator and tight ends coach Marcus Satterfield.

This is certainly something to watch, and Loftin would give the Huskers another weapon in the 2025 class. Nebraska currently has five four-star commitments in the 2025 class, and Loftin would also give the program another player from in-state. This coaching staff has made it a point to try and lock up in-state talent, and Loftin would undoubtedly fit the bill.

Huskers getting visit from four-star in-state tight end this weekend

Chase Loftin will be circling back to Lincoln for a visit.

2025 four-star tight end Chase Loftin is set to visit Nebraska football for their game against the UCLA Bruins in November, per Rivals.com’s Greg Smith. Loftin initially committed to the Florida State Seminoles on June 29.

Loftin is the 19th overall tight end in the 2025 class and the second overall player in his class from the state of Nebraska per the 247Sports composite rankings.  The Huskers were originally thought to have a good chance at landing Loftin over the summer, but he committed to the Seminoles at the end of June.

Landing Loftin would be a big get for a 2025 Nebraska class that ranks 25th nationally. Loftin measures six-foot-six, 215 pounds, and could be a big weapon for the Huskers. Nebraska already has one tight end in the class in Bear Tenney.

It will be interesting to see what the Huskers can do in this recruitment. Florida State is struggling this season, which could allow the program to make a strong impression on Loftin.

2025 4-star TE out of Omaha (NE) recently visited Texas A&M

Texas A&M is still in the running for underrated 2025 3-star tight end Chase Loftin

Just three days ago, Texas A&M’s 2025 recruiting class continued to gain ground as Mike Elko and his staff hosted another talented list of future prospects, including another tight end who looks like a potentially perfect fit in new offensive coordinator Collin Klein’s system.

As we eagerly await the 2024 season to witness Klein’s offensive play-calling prowess, it’s clear that the tight end position will play a pivotal role. The recent commitment of 2025 four-star TE Kiotti Armstrong to the program on Friday night is a testament to the growing strength and potential of Texas A&M’s football team.

Joining Armstrong in College Station last week, four-star TE Chase Loftin out of Omaha, Nebraska, took his first official visit to Texas A&M this year. The incoming Millard South HS senior stands at an impressive 6’6″ and 215 pounds with some room to grow.

Set to visit Nebraska this weekend, Loftin spoke to TTJH Sports after his Aggie OV, as Elko and his offensive staff have reportedly made significant strides with the Midwest product:

“They showed me that I was a huge priority to them! They are a big time program and on the rise!”

Like many future tight end prospects, Loftin has logged plenty of snaps as an outside X receiver. He possesses above-average footwork and route-running ability, but he does most of his receiving damage in the seam.

According to 247Sports, Loftin is currently the 25th-ranked tight end in the 2025 class and the second-ranked prospect in Nebraska.
