New Nebraska football commit Trae Taylor apologized for stirring up Illinois fans with a last-second pump fake during his commitment ceremony.

Regardless of how it went down, Taylor's commitment is another significant recruiting win for Nebraska coach Matt Rhule and his staff. The Huskers signed five-star quarterback Dylan Raiola in 2024, TJ Lateef -- the No. 27 quarterback in his class -- in 2025 and currently hold a commitment from Dayton Raiola, Dylan's younger brother, for 2026.

Nebraska fooball commit Trae Taylor issued an apology to Illinois fans following his announcement on Thursday.
