Rex Waterman looks like a Big Ten-built road grader with upside
Rex Waterman, Nebraska’s 6-foot-5, 295-pound freshman OL from Chandler, Arizona, entered the Huskers as a three-star recruit and was viewed as a versatile tackle/guard with a strong fit for Nebraska’s physical style[3][4][6]. His differentiators are size, frame, and a mauler mentality—recruiting coverage described him as a “road-grading” lineman and noted Nebraska staff liked the way he plays the game and believed he could fit right in[4][11]. He also earned praise as a top-70 interior OL prospect nationally in one ranking set, which is solid value for a development piece[3][6].
