Nebraska secured a commitment on Monday from Richard Torres, the 2022 prospect who had just visited Lincoln last weekend. After also making a trip to Kansas State in recent days, the quarterback made his commitment known on social media.
Out of the San Antonio area, the 6-5, 210-pound Torres is quick on his feet, but also has impressed at various camps with his ability to put some zip on his passes even in tough conditions.
In the spring, 247Sports offered this analysis, "Richard Torres showed one of the biggest arms at the camp. Torres and (No. 1 overall five-star Quinn) Ewers were the only quarterbacks who beat a stiff wind on multiple downfield shots. Torres is raw but big-framed and athletic, with a background in basketball as well, and his upside makes him particularly intriguing."
Torres, No. 59 among 2022 quarterbacks on the 247Sports Composite, also ran a 4.50-second shuttle time at the Dallas regional.
