Nebraska’s multi-use arm giving Creighton real innings
Jakob Ruhl brings legit two-way pedigree and a sturdy frame at 6-foot-3, 195 pounds, but his real value is on the mound, where he has worked as a swing starter/out of the bullpen and shown poise for a young arm. In the 2026 season, he logged a 4.64 ERA through 21.1 innings with 16 strikeouts and 9 walks, then finished as a versatile depth piece for Creighton. He was ranked among Nebraska’s top prep arms and entered with a reputation for competitiveness, making him a smart fit for teams that value toughness, flexibility, and upside.
