RJ Sorensen announced on Wednesday evening he's no longer committed to the Huskers.
The defensive end from Florida described it as "a hard decision to make" in a social media statement.
"I want to fully reopen my recruitment process and explore other options that have presented themselves," he explained in the Twitter post. "I thank Coach Frost and his whole staff for being the first group of people to believe in me. Thank you Husker Nation for all the support and love you have shown to during my brief time as a committed Husker."
Out of University School in Fort Lauderdale, the 6-foot-4, 230-pound prospect had jumped on a Husker offer early, becoming the first pledge of the 2021 class when he committed on Sept. 1, more than 15 months ahead of his signing date. He also held early offers from Colorado and Rutgers.
With a long time still until this class comes to full realization, the announcement knocks Nebraska's commit list to three players for this cycle. The commits on the Husker 2021 list are all within the 500-mile radius: offensive tackle Teddy Prochazka (Elkhorn South), offensive guard Henry Lutovsky (Mount Pleasant, Iowa), and outside linebacker Randolph Kpai (Sioux Falls, South Dakota).
