Nebraska Football Countdown to Kickoff: No. 36 DB Blake Closman
The countdown to the start of Nebraska’s 2024 season is down to 36 days and in the player spotlight is Cornhuskers defensive back Blake Closman. The 5-foot-9, 195-pound cornerback is originally out of Elkhorn, Nebraska and was a standout safety and wide receiver. He eventually chose to walk on with the Huskers. After not appearing in any games during his first two years with the program, Crosman played in two games as a redshirt sophomore in 2023 against both Northern Illinois and Michigan. Closman will have an opportunity to see the field again in 2024 but likely won’t have any large roll, instead playing in select situations.
