As the current landscape of college football continues to shift and evolve, it can be hard to keep up with everything, especially inside a program as jam-packed and constantly moving as Nebraska football.
That includes team rosters and what the scholarship distribution looks like. Every team in the country is going to have a steady stream of players coming in and going out. Everyone’s goal, however, is the same: Just be at the 85-man scholarship mark by the time the 2024 season kicks off.
With that in mind, the following is the Huskers' scholarship distribution chart. This is their current scholarship projection for the 2024 season following the early signing period in which Nebraska signed 28 players. There are some members of that 28-man class who may not be on a full scholarship in their first season, but we are working under the safer assumption that all 28 will be on a full scholarship right away as true freshmen.
The players' positions and classes are unofficial and taken from the team's official website. In the case of the Huskers' 2024 signees, there are a few that are our best educated guesses as to the position where they will begin their college careers before some inevitable shifting around – either on offense, defense or even a flip from one side of the ball to the other.
As changes become public, this chart will be updated. The list of players who are still with the team but are no longer on scholarship is not public information. For example, the Huskers are at 96 scholarships on our chart below but likely have a few players listed who are no longer on scholarship. Nebraska will have until August 2024 to whittle down its scholarship count to 85 players.
