Nebraska is keeping Eric Ingwerson home. The massive tight end from Papillion (Neb.) Papillion-La Vista committed to Nebraska, becoming the 26th commitment in the class. What’s more, Matt Rhule and his staff are keeping seven players home to play for the Huskers in the 2024 class.
Ingwerson picked up an offer from Pitt following an unofficial visit this spring. He committed just a few weeks later. Nebraska offered Ingwerson a month after he had committed to Pitt and were set to host Ingwerson for an official visit. However, that visit was canceled, and Ingwerson solidified his commitment with Pitt.
Ingwerson has helped lead Papillion-La Vista to a 4-1 record so far this year. He is playing on both sides of the football for the Monarchs. The Monarchs are in a very important stretch of their season, opening district play with a win against Omaha Benson. The next three games will be district contests.
Ingwerson joins Carter Nelson from Ainsworth (Neb.) and Ian Flynt from Katy (Texas) Taylor, bringing the total to three tight ends in the class. The Ingwerson commitment brings the total number of in-state commits in the 2024 class to seven. Ingwerson joins Nelson, Bellevue West wide receivers Dae’Vonn Hall and Isaiah McMorris, Bellevue West quarterback Daniel Kaelin, Elkhorn South defensive lineman Ashton Murphy, and Omaha North defensive back Donovan Jones.
