It is starting to be reported that five-star quarterback Dylan Raiola could flip his commitment from Georgia to Nebraska in the coming days. The prediction comes from 247Sports as it appears Nebraska has made a late push for Raiola.
Nebraska has been in the running for former Ohio State quarterback Kyle McCord and looks to add Raiola to its QB room.
Raiola has been committed to the Bulldogs since May and moved to Georgia to play his last year of high school ball at Buford High School. The 6-foot-3 quarterback threw for 2,666 yards and 34 touchdowns at Buford and lost to Grayson High School in the state playoffs.
If Raiola decides to go to Nebraska over Georgia, the Bulldogs will only have two guaranteed quarterbacks on scholarship. Carson Beck could return for his senior season, but he hasn’t confirmed that. Brock Vandagriff recently transferred to Kentucky. Gunnar Stockton is entering his sophomore season and four-star recruit Ryan Puglisi are the two options that will be in Athens for the 2024 season.
Beck’s decision is starting to become more important by the day, and we’ll likely get word on his decision sooner than later. There are other transfer portal options at quarterback such as Cameron Ward, Will Howard or Grayson McCall.
While it’s not set in stone that Raiola will leave the Bulldogs’ class, Nebraska has shown a willingness to use its name, image and likeness funds.
