Looking back at the month of June, here are the five biggest college football recruiting winners from the past month. 

Another month of college football recruiting is in the books. The month of July has already started with fireworks, including a key five-star commitment on Sunday from Justin Scott to the Ohio State Buckeyes.

However, we still wanted to go back at look at our monthly college football recruiting winners for the month of June. We are a little behind, but it’s been a holiday weekend (sort of), so hopefully you’ll excuse us being a couple of days tardy with this post.

At any rate, here are the five biggest college football recruiting winners from the month of June.

Matt Rhule and the Cornhuskers did some serious work on the recruiting trail for the month of June, landing a total of 15 commitments.

However, it wasn’t just the sheer number of commitments that got Nebraska football on this list. The Huskers landed their top overall prospect left on the board in Carter Nelson. The 78th-ranked prospect in the 2024 class via the 247 Sports composite rankings, was trending to Georgia at one time. Notre Dame was right there too.

But Rhule was able to keep the elite tight end home, which was a huge recruiting win. Nebraska football also landed Dae’vonn Hall (4-star WR), and Isaiah McMorris (3-star WR), flipped an Ole Miss trend with three-star RB Kewan Lacy, and also landed four-star Mario Buford.

Nebraska football started the month outside the top 30 and is now 14th overall in the 2024 college football recruiting class according to the 247 Sports team rankings.
