Nebraska acquired a commit from Pierre (S.D.) Riggs lineman Jason Maciejczak. Three takes on the choice of the 6-foot-4, 320-pounder:
Matt Rhule takes an FCS-bound participant and makes him a Husker. Maciejczak was headed to North Dakota earlier than final week, when he obtained a sudden provide from Nebraska. Maciejczak just isn’t a stranger to NU — he is visited earlier than — however he did not decide up quite a lot of scholarship consideration from most FBS or FCS faculties within the Midwest. Till Nebraska. Positive, it is a danger. A number of recruiting connects to calculated dangers. Rhule, assured in each his evaluation and that of offensive line coach Donovan Raiola, is prepared to take it right here. Is it truthful to name Maciejczak the Micah Kreikemeier of the 2023 class? Yep. Nebraska made a proposal work by way of Zoom — due to an enormous blizzard by way of central Nebraska and South Dakota — for a cause.
An enormous physique who can transfer. Maciejczak will inevitably draw comparisons to a different South Dakotan on the roster, Nash Hutmacher, who additionally hails from the central a part of the state. To observe movie of each, they’re completely different. Hutmacher is a hard-to-move, strong-as-a-bull participant whose lateral quickness wanted to enhance upon arriving at Nebraska. Maciejczak can transfer on movie. He performs finish on protection, and deal with on offense. He is most likely not as sturdy as Hutmacher — few are — however there is a lateral quickness to his sport that Rhule should have favored. And he would not have to placed on weight; he is already carrying 320.
Persons are additionally studying…
He may finally land on both aspect of the road. Maciejczak performs offensive and defensive position for Riggs. He might finally be of higher want on protection — NU has its share of in-state beef for the O-line — however he is additionally a man you get in this system and see the place he lands. Over time, Nebraska has had a number of linemen who started on protection and moved to offense, and vice versa.
Sam McKewon, Tom Shatel and Dirk Chatelain provide some key takeaways from Matt Rhule’s early recruiting efforts at Nebraska.
