It’s never too early to get a jump on QB recruiting anymore.

Nebraska offered two quarterbacks on Saturday in separate recruiting classes. Still are both at least a couple recruiting cycles away away, mind you, but the Huskers obviously liked what they saw from Jameson Purcell and Ace Amina at camp.

Purcell’s a 2027 guy and Amina a 2028 guy. Nebraska has its QBs through the 2025 class with a commitment from TJ Lateef, but everything after that is open.

Purcell is from Maine South High School in Park Ridge, Ill. As noted on Husker247 earlier this week, his family has a friendship with former Nebraska QB Fred Duda of the 60s, and he has shared his insights about NU football.

Husker running backs coach E.J. Barthel also built a good relationship with the QB while area recruiting.

“I really connected with Coach Barthel and liked what he had to say about the culture of the football program under coach Matt Rhule and how they are really raising quality young men on and off the field,” Purcell told Husker247 prior to his visit. “I also like their football tradition and they have a top ranked business school, which I plan to major in.  I also like that coach Rhule has coached in the NFL and he knows what it takes to make it to the highest level.”

The Huskers also extended a ’28 offer to Amina, who calls Waianae, Hawaii home, and is going to attend powerhouse Bishop Gorman program in Las Vegas

Nebraska has also extended various offers to 2026 prospects in recent weeks.

There could also be interesting options close to home that develop, with ’26 prospect Jett Thomalla among those camping in Lincoln on Friday night.

He got some good conversation time with Husker QBs coach Glenn Thomas after the camp.

“My dad and I sat down and talked with Coach Thomas for about 45 minutes after camp,” Thomalla said. “He wanted me to know that I am one of their top priorities and he plans to come watch me on Friday nights when he is available.”

The 6-4, 185-pound Thomalla, who spoke to Mike Schaefer recently about improving as he’s put in work with Warren Academy’s John Teigland, took note of something Thomas said in the conversation after the FNL event.

“He told me to not get too caught up in the process and enjoy my last two seasons of high school football,” the quarterback said. “This summer, I’m just gonna keep focusing on being more consistent and getting faster. Our team has a lot of great opportunities in the fall.”

NU’s 2025 QB commit Lateef, meanwhile, received a good report from 247Sports analyst while Lateef was throwing at “The QB Retreat” event run by quarterback specialist Steve Clarkson.

Biggins said it appeared Lateef was working on some mechanics and had a smoother release and tighter spiral.

“His arm strength was good and his accuracy was solid as well,” Biggins wrote. “He’s a naturally strong kid, especially in his lower half  and he’s a player we have always liked for his ability to make plays outside the pocket when the pads come on. We’ll have a chance to see Lateef live once more in a few weeks at the Elite 11 Finals.”
