Sometimes decisions are hard to make.

Just a day after withdrawing his name from the transfer portal, Nebraska defensive back Koby Bretz is back in. He reportedly re-entered with a "do not contact" tag, meaning he likely knows his next destination already.

The Omaha Westside grad has played in 17 games over four seasons in Lincoln. He has one year of eligibility remaining.
