Committed: Nebraska Football Commit Trae Taylor Discusses Peer Recruiting WR Jordan Frohock
Trae Taylor, a recent high-profile quarterback commit in Nebraska’s 2025 class, isn’t just content with perfecting his spiral or breaking down defenses—he’s taking on a new mission: recruiting wide receiver Jordan Frohock to Lincoln.
In a recent conversation with reporters following his commitment ceremony in Houston, Texas, Taylor spoke candidly about his growing bond with Frohock, a 4-star wideout from Tampa, Florida, who’s been on Nebraska’s radar for months. “Jordan’s a beast, man,” Taylor said, eyes lit with excitement. “He’s got that raw speed, twitch off the line, and ball skills you can’t teach. You pair that with my arm and we’re talking Big Ten fireworks.”
Taylor, known for his leadership and charisma in the huddle, has already begun using those same skills off the field. Since his commitment, he’s been in Frohock’s ear—via text, FaceTime, and even Snapchat. “I’m telling him: ‘Why not Nebraska? Why not be a part of something we’re building instead of joining something already built?’” Taylor explained. “This is about legacy.”
Frohock, who boasts offers from Miami, Florida State, Penn State, and Oregon, has remained uncommitted. Yet, his social media activity in recent weeks—retweeting Nebraska highlights, interacting with Taylor’s posts, and even posting a photo in a Huskers edit—has stoked speculation. Taylor’s influence could prove pivotal.
Nebraska head coach Matt Rhule has long preached a “build it together” philosophy. His 2025 recruiting class, headlined now by Taylor, reflects that sentiment. Rhule’s staff reportedly encourages peer-to-peer recruitment, believing it fosters stronger chemistry and early trust between future teammates.
“Trae’s like a second recruiter for us,” said a Nebraska staffer who asked not to be named. “When your quarterback is that bought in, it changes the tone. Other guys listen.”
Taylor also hinted that his relationship with Frohock dates back further than most fans know. “We met at a 7-on-7 national showcase back in ’23. We clicked instantly—same competitive drive, same hunger. Since then, we’ve been boys. I know what kind of work ethic he has. I want that next to me on Saturdays.”
Recruiting analysts believe Taylor’s commitment could be a turning point. “Taylor is a magnet,” said Rivals analyst Sean Mitchell. “He’s got that mix of swagger and substance. Frohock is watching closely, and Nebraska has a real shot.”
As the summer recruiting circuit heats up, all eyes are on Frohock’s official visits. Taylor, meanwhile, remains focused and persistent. “This isn’t just football,” he said. “It’s a movement. Jordan’s next.”
With Taylor’s growing voice and Nebraska’s aggressive push, the idea of a Taylor-Frohock connection lighting up Memorial Stadium may shift from recruiting fantasy to reality—one Snap, one call, and one bold pitch at a time.
