Nebraska Commit Bear Tenney Highlights Official Visit, Credits Dylan Raiola’s Influence
Nebraska‘s class of 2025 received an intriguing boost as three-star tight end Bear Tenney from Lone Peak High School in American Fork, Utah, shared highlights from his recent official visit. The talented prospect, who previously played at Lucas Lovejoy High School in Texas, is making waves with his commitment to the Cornhuskers.
Tenney, who caught 27 passes for 278 yards and two touchdowns as a junior in 2023, is also set to showcase his skills at the upcoming US Army Bowl. His commitment to Nebraska initially surprised many, but Tenney credits Nebraska freshman quarterback Dylan Raiola as a significant influence in his decision.
In an interview with 247Sports, Tenney revealed, “Me and Dylan Raiola have been in contact for a while now and he’s been pushing for me to join him. Nebraska is going to be a great fit. I’m going to love him as my QB — who wouldn’t want a five-star as their QB?”
Raiola’s recruitment efforts and Nebraska’s promise of a strong football program have clearly resonated with Tenney, who sees a bright future with the Cornhuskers. As Nebraska’s class of 2025 continues to take shape, the addition of Tenney brings both talent and potential to the team.
Currently, Nebraska’s 2025 recruiting class holds 11 commitments and ranks outside the Top 25. However, with prospects like Tenney on board and the influence of players like Raiola, the Cornhuskers are positioning themselves for a promising future. Fans and analysts alike will be watching closely as Tenney’s journey with Nebraska unfolds.
