Nebraska reveals 10 Huskers earning coveted single-digit jerseys
LINCOLN, Neb. (KOLN) – Nebraska named the 10 football players who will be wearing single digit jerseys this season in a social media post on Tuesday.
The list includes:
- Nash Hutmacher #0 (Sr.) Defensive Lineman
- Jimari Butler #1 (Jr.) Defensive Lineman
- Isaac Gifford #2 (Sr.) Defensive Back
- Marques Buford Jr. #3 (Jr.) Defensive Back
- Jahmal Banks #4 (Sr.) Wide Receiver
- John Bullock #5 (Sr.) Linebacker
- Tommi Hill #6 (Sr.) Defensive Back
- Malcolm Hartzog #7 (Jr.) Defensive Back
- DeShon Singleton #8 (Sr.) Defensive Back
- Ty Robinson #9 (Sr.) Defensive Lineman
Matt Rhule introduced the single digit jerseys last year and had the team vote for players who deserved the single digit jerseys.
Once a player was voted to get a single digit jersey, they were able to pick the number they wanted that remained untaken with numbers zero through nine being used. There is no offense / defense repeats therefore only 10 Huskers earned the single digits.

NORTH PLATTE, Neb. (KNOP) – Get ready for a stretch of absolutely gorgeous weather to kick off your weekend but keep an eye on the heat building as we head into next week.
This Weekend: Perfect Conditions
Saturday and Sunday are shaping up to be nearly identical — sunny skies with highs climbing to around 89 and 90 degrees respectively. A light south southeast breeze at 5 to 10 mph will keep things comfortable, though gusts could reach 20 mph at times. Overnight lows will dip to the low 60s, making for pleasant sleeping weather.
This is ideal weather for outdoor plans. Whether you’re heading to a summer event, spending time at the lake, or just enjoying time outside, you won’t want to miss it.
Early Next Week: Heat Turns Up
Starting Monday, temperatures begin a steady climb. Highs will reach 91 degrees Monday, then 91 again Tuesday before pushing toward 92 on Wednesday. By Thursday and Friday, we’re looking at highs near 94 to 95 degrees.
The good news? Skies remain sunny throughout, and humidity levels should stay relatively manageable. The breeze will be light, so it won’t feel quite as intense as it could.
