Four-star athlete Darien Chase committed to the Nebraska football team on Thursday afternoon. He picked the Huskers over a final two that had Boise State as the main competition. Now that he has officially announced, what does it mean for the prospect and for the program?
He moves Nebraska football back into the Top 25 recruiting classes
At least Darien Chase does that when it comes to 247Sports. Obviously, it's hard to tell where the Huskers will finish, it's hard to know if that will even matter. At the very least it shows that the Cornhuskers are bringing in talent.

He's a three-way talent
Get your minds out of the gutter. Darien Chase could help Nebraska football in several different ways. The Huskers are looking at him as a wide receiver, but he's also considered a lock down corner. Furthermore, he's someone who has had a ton of success as a kick and punt returner. We all know the special teams unit could use some help.
Thank you to everyone in my life that has gotten me to where I am today, after careful consideration I am 1000% committed to the university of Nebraska!! #GBR 🥀 pic.twitter.com/wpibleCVU7
