Nebraska football was the hit of the weekend.

Not only did the Huskers pummel the Colorado Buffaloes, setting a record for NBC Big Ten viewership in the process, but NU grabbed the attention of recruits on hand for the contest.

HuskerMax caught up with 2027 tight end Jack Brown after his visit. The 6-5, 205-pound tight end and edge out of St. Louis is a three-sport athlete at Francis Howell Central, competing in football basketball, and track and field.

“My visit was great,” Brown said. “A ton of coaches talked to me and it was a fun time overall being able to visit and experience everything. It’s safe to say this visit exceeded my expectations.”

As a number of other recruits have discussed, the crowd and atmosphere within Memorial Stadium are imprinted on Brown's memory as something few programs have.

“Nebraska’s crowd was unique for sure,“ Brown said. “Also, the atmosphere was unlike anything I’ve ever been to or seen in person.”

While other prospects are figuring out their visit schedules, whether to other schools or back to Lincoln, Brown said the Colorado game will not be his last he sees this season with the scarlet and cream in action.

“I’m visiting when Nebraska plays Wisconsin,” Brown said.

That contest is slated for Nov. 23.
