Pinnacle quarterback <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.on3.com\/db\/dayton-raiola-161968\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Dayton Raiola<\/a><\/strong>. Since visiting campus earlier this year, Raiola has made noticeable physical gains. <\/p>\n<p>Raiola was throwing in Lincoln while his older brother <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.on3.com\/db\/dylan-raiola-147035\/\">Dylan Raiola<\/a><\/strong> competed at the Elite 11 in Los Angeles on Friday. Just like his older brother Dylan, Dayton Raiola showed natural arm talent. <\/p>\n<p>It was this same camp in June of 2021 where Dylan Raiola had one of his first big public workouts as a recruit following his freshman season at Burleson High School in Texas. <\/p>\n<p>Another big-name quarterback that threw for the Huskers staff on Friday was Keller (Texas) All Saints Episcopal 2025 standout <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.on3.com\/db\/kelden-ryan-152077\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Kelden Ryan<\/a><\/strong>. <\/p>\n<p>The 6-foot-1, 200-pound Ryan already holds 16 Power Five offers and is ranked as the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.on3.com\/db\/rankings\/industry-player\/football\/2025\/?position=qb\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">fourth-best quarterback in Texas <\/a><\/strong>for the Class of 2025 by On3. <\/p>\n<p>Ryan talked more about his experience following the camp. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was great. I had a really good camp,\u201d Ryan told <em>HuskerOnline<\/em>. \u201cCoach (<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.on3.com\/db\/coach\/marcus-satterfield-133519\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Marcus Satterfield<\/a><\/strong>) said that I had unbelievable arm talent and he was looking forward to building a relationship.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ryan has offers from Penn State, Arkansas, Missouri, Oklahoma State, Miami, Baylor, Cal, Pittsburgh, Virginia Tech, Texas Tech, Washington State, Colorado, Duke, Houston, Miami and Vanderbilt. <\/p>\n<h2>Huskers make a new in-state offer to 2025 TE Chase Loftin<\/h2>\n<p>One of the real highlights on Friday was Nebraska made another in-state offer, this time to Elkhorn North 2025 tight end <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.on3.com\/db\/chase-loftin-177461\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Chase Loftin<\/a><\/strong>. <\/p>\n<p>The 6-foot-5 1\/2, 200-pound Loftin already picked up Iowa State and Oklahoma offers this week, and he added the Huskers on Friday. He\u2019ll camp at both K-State and Missouri next week. <\/p>\n<p>He\u2019s now the fifth in-state offer for the class of 2025 made by Rhule\u2019s staff, as NU has also offered Omaha Westside LB <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.on3.com\/db\/christian-jones-150372\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Christian Jones<\/a><\/strong>, Omaha North DL <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.on3.com\/db\/tyson-terry-151046\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Tyson Terry<\/a><\/strong>, Millard North DB <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.on3.com\/db\/caden-vermaas-153106\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Caden VerMaas<\/a><\/strong> and Wahoo Bishop Neumann running back<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.on3.com\/db\/conor-booth-236170\/\"> Conor Booth<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Loftin said he did not receive his testing numbers back from NU on Friday. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.on3.com\/teams\/nebraska-cornhuskers\/news\/nebraska-offers-in-state-2025-te-chase-loftin-following-fnl-camp-performance-in-lincoln\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">He talked more about his offer<\/a><\/strong> following the camp to <em>HuskerOnline<\/em>. <\/p>\n<h2>2025 NU commit Caden VerMaas works out for the Husker staff<\/h2>\n<p>The camp on Friday offered VerMaas a great opportunity to work out for Rhule and his future Husker coaches for the first time. <\/p>\n<p>He committed to Nebraska this past April and originally received his offer last fall from former interim head coach <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.on3.com\/db\/coach\/mickey-joseph-131438\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Mickey Joseph<\/a><\/strong>. <\/p>\n<p>VerMaas said he measured just under 6-0 and 189 pounds. He also ran 4.44 seconds in the 40-yard dash, ran 4.45 in the pro-agility, and jumped a 32-inch vertical. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe camp was an awesome experience,\u201d VerMaas said. <\/p>\n<h2>2024 Omaha North DB Donovan Jones has a big camp<\/h2>\n<p>The In-state prospect that probably helped his stock the most on Friday was Omaha North 2024 defensive back <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.on3.com\/db\/donovan-jones-177458\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Donovan Jones<\/a><\/strong>. <\/p>\n<p>It was the first live look Nebraska and Wyoming had at the 6-foot, 180-pound Jones, and he did not disappoint. <\/p>\n<p>The Cowboys immediately offered Jones at the camp, and he also appears to be on the Huskers\u2019 radar. <\/p>\n<p>Before Friday, South Dakota State, Lindenwood, Northwest Missouri State, Minnesota State, Central Missouri and Sioux Falls were the only offers Jones had. <\/p>\n<h2>Other FNL Camp notes<\/h2>\n<p>***2025 Elkhorn South quarterback <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.on3.com\/db\/madden-riggs-177582\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Madden Riggs<\/a><\/strong> threw at Friday\u2019s camp. He also worked out for NU at the team camp Sunday through Tuesday. <\/p>\n<p>Another in-state quarterback\/athlete to watch is Wahoo Nuemann\u2019s <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.on3.com\/db\/connor-schutt-236259\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Connor Schutt<\/a><\/strong>\u2014the 6-foot-5, 180-pound Schutt is cousins with former Nebraska quarterback <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.on3.com\/db\/noah-vedral-93791\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Noah Vedral<\/a><\/strong>.

The injury knocked him out of the state track meet earlier this spring after topping out at 10.75 seconds in the 100-meter dash.<\/p>\n<p>***North Kansas City (Mo.) 2024 athlete <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.on3.com\/db\/eltoum-murgus-174863\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Eltoum Murgus<\/a><\/strong> was one of the most intriguing athletes who camped at Nebraska this week. He worked out at NU\u2019s first camp on June 4 and returned for FNL. <\/p>\n<p>The 6-foot-4, 200-pound Murgus ran 4.52 seconds in the 40-yard dash and went 10-3 in the broad jump. On the track, he also ran 48.95 seconds in the 400-meter dash this spring. He currently holds multiple Group of Five and FCS offers. Murgus told HOL on Friday he could only watch camp because of a toe injury he suffered this past week. <\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<span class=\"Fq3ipYhG67rO29fJjLQADeIlWvtUX8C0yd15b\">\n<p>Had a great camp at Nebraska\u2019s Friday night lights<br \/>40yd \u2013 4.44<br \/>Vertical \u2013 35in<br \/>Pro Agility- 4.25<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/CoachMattRhule?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@CoachMattRhule<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/GarretMcGuire?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@GarretMcGuire<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/CoachEJbarthel?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@CoachEJbarthel<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/coachedfoley?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@coachedfoley<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/mw_xix?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@mw_xix<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NEB_Recruiting?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@NEB_Recruiting<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/PrepRedzoneNE?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@PrepRedzoneNE<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/od6BCuGVIX\">pic.twitter.com\/od6BCuGVIX<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Ryker Evans (@RykerEvans5) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/RykerEvans5\/status\/1669896249045143552?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">June 17, 2023<\/a><\/p><\/span>\n<\/div>\n<p>***Another big in-state performance came from Elwood (Neb.)

His PR in the 100 was 10.64 seconds and 21.80 seconds in the 200. <\/p>\n<p>***Former Husker defensive end <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/huskers.com\/sports\/football\/roster\/benard-thomas\/28254\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Benard Thomas<\/a><\/strong> was at Friday\u2019s camp with his son and a group of players from Texas. Thomas lives in the San Antonio area and works as a football trainer. <\/p>\n<p>One of Thomas\u2019s cooler moments on Friday was reconnecting with his former defensive coordinator <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.on3.com\/db\/coach\/craig-bohl-132403\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Craig Bohl<\/a><\/strong>, who coached him for his first three seasons at NU. Bohl and his staff worked both Nebraska camps on Friday. <\/p>\n<p>***One of the neater moments during the camp was Rhule lined up at quarterback and threw one-on-one routes to some of the receivers. He threw a few very nice balls in coverage and had fun interacting with the different campers. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.on3.com\/teams\/nebraska-cornhuskers\/newsletter\/join\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Never miss Nebraska breaking news or another HuskerOnline article again.
