The Nebraska football team is hosting a surprise mid-week unofficial visitor on Tuesday. Homestead (Fla.) Northwestern safety Tedarius Hughes announced on X that he’s currently on a visit to NU.

The 6-foot-3, 180-pound four-star prospect has been committed to Florida State since July 4, 2024.

He recently took his official visit to Tallahassee last weekend, but is now scheduled to visit both NU and Syracuse this week before the dead period. He also took an official visit to Miami on May 30.

Hughes posted a strong junior season, with stats including 34 tackles (four for loss), five passes defended, two interceptions (one returned for a touchdown), and a punt-return score. He also played on offense, catching 12 passes for 187 yards and four touchdowns.

The Huskers continue their strong push into Florida, led by assistant coaches Phil Simpson and Addison Williams. Simpson was the former head coach of Homestead High School in Miami, while Williams has a strong recruiting history in Florida from his time at both Auburn and the University of Central Florida (UCF). Meanwhile, at Florida State, the Noles have former Matt Rhule assistants Evan Cooper, Tony White, and Terrance Knighton on their defensive staff.

Schools can host recruits until this Sunday—the dead period then lasts from June 23 until September.
