Nebraska football landed its first defensive commitment of the 2020 class on Sunday, as official visitor Tamon Lynum committed following his official visit.
The 6-foot-2, 165-pound Lynum picked the Huskers over offers from Kansas, East Carolina and others. Lynum is a three-star corner with an overall rating of 82 according to 247Sports.
Lynum is the fourth commitment for Nebraska's 2020 class, joining quarterback Logan Smothers, wide receiver Zavier Betts and offensive tackle Turner Corcoran.
Lynum, who was familiar with Scott Frost and his staff during their time at UCF, told Husker247 in May that he was looking closely at the Big Red.
“The Nebraska offer really touched me,” Lynum said. “I had been praying for a power-five offer for the longest time, and God blessed me with my first one. I love Nebraska, the fan base, everything about it. I would fit there style. They also like long tall corners who can move, and I feel like I’m the piece that they have been looking for.”
