Well, the bad swoon for Nebraska recruiting keeps going on Sunday night.

The Huskers lose the verbal of Tulsa, Oklahoma Tight End Reese Leitao on Sunday night.
Leitao, who committed to the Huskers back on August 27th, was just offered by the Texas Longhorns on December 6th after the hire of new Head Coach Tom Herman, and took a visit to Austin the next weekend.
It was thought that Leitao was offered by the Horns as a Defensive End, so this is interesting that the Huskers lose Leitao as he was committed as a Tight End. So, this may be something different that the Huskers couldn’t deal with as far as a position situation.
This is the second decommit in a week for Nebraska, adding onto the Robert Porcher deco last Monday. The Huskers haven’t gotten a verbal in the past 90 days, so there’s definitely a swoon going down in Lincoln. For all the back-end momentum that the Huskers could get, right now it’s a brutal time.
