Huskers pick up first verbal commitment of 2023 class with Pierce TE Benjamin Brahmer | Recruiting








Adams Central’s Jacob Eckhardt (12) knocks the ball away from Pierce’s Ben Brahmer (15) during the Class C-1 state championship game Nov. 20 in Pierce.




Nebraska’s 2023 class is already off to a faster start than the 2022 group. 

The Huskers landed a verbal commitment from Pierce tight end Benjamin Brahmer, making him an early in-state anchor of the future recruiting class. 

Brahmer, listed at 6-foot-5, picked up an offer over the winter and is part of another deep, talented group of Nebraska prospects. 

“He’s always caught the ball really well and he’s got a lot of maturing left to do,” said Pierce head coach Mark Brahmer, Benjamin’s dad, who added that Benjamin has grown two inches since football season began this fall. “He’s about 6-foot-6, maybe 190 pounds right now in the middle of basketball season. He could end up being a 6-6, 6-7, 240-pound guy.” 

Brahmer finished the season with 44 catches for 747 yards and 10 touchdowns for Pierce, which capped a 12-0 season with a 28-19 victory over Adams Central for the C-1 state championship in November.
