In the recruiting world, things can change at a moment’s notice. A little over a week ago, Cornhuskers Wire reported that Chase Loftin, the top high school player in Nebraska, was projected to commit to the Cornhuskers.
That changed Saturday evening when Loftin announced his commitment to the Florida State Seminoles. He chose FSU over Nebraska, Missouri, and Texas A&M.
The tight end told 247Sports that the people at Florida State made the difference in his decision.
“Florida State is home for me because of the people. All the coaches showed tons of love. I think it is a place to win a Natty.”
Loftin is a 6-foot-5, 213-pound tight end for Millard South High School out of Omaha, Nebraska. Over the last two seasons, he’s appeared in 22 games and has 73 receptions for 1,017 yards and 11 touchdowns.
Nebraska’s tight end room is incredibly deep heading into the 2024 season and beyond. With names such as Thomas Fidone II, Carter Nelson, and Ismael Smith Flores, big things are expected from that position group this year.
Im home! Go Noles!!🍢 https://t.co/ocI37HoemP
