From the article above...
However, as is the case with a transition class, the Huskers were forced to concentrate on the short term and finish recruiting the 2018 class before diverting their efforts to the future. Iowa, Iowa State, Minnesota and Wisconsin dropped by most during the open evaluation period in January, Limongi said. Penn State, Kansas State and Notre Dame also visited.
“[Nebraska is] a little bit behind in terms of relationships and getting to know the families and stuff like that,” Limongi said. “But I think when it opens up again and they can start calling kids again and come up and visit, they’ll be able to catch up fairly easily if they decide to do that.
“It’s uncontrollable that they got in the game so late,” he added. “The boys know that and that’s understood. I think, so, far they’ve done a good job of building the relationship.”
But before Nebraska fans become worried, Nebraska has made it clear to both they are priorities. The talk Frost gave Henrich and Hickman about turning Nebraska around on the foundation of in-state talent resonated with them.
“It got everybody in the building pretty much excited,” Limongi said.
Henrich is coming off visits to Iowa and Iowa State. He’ll head to Notre Dame next before Nebraska. Hickman visited the Huskers during a spring practice last week. At this point in their recruitments, Limongi was adamant no school holds an advantage, which is a good sign for Nebraska.
“With both of them, the thing is that there is no lead school right now,” Limongi said. “People have been saying ‘this school’ or ‘that school’. There isn’t, with either of them. They’re all equal right now. They’re not going to put them into a priority-type list until they’re done visiting, probably in the beginning of summer, so there’s no one school that has an advantage for them right now.”
