Held honored as one of nation's top 25 recruiters by Rivals.com

Ryan Held seems to enjoy everything about recruiting, and he's obviously pretty good at it.

The second-year Nebraska running backs coach on Friday was honored by Rivals.com as one of the nation's top 25 recruiters for the class of 2019. He also made the top 25 in 2018.

Wrote Rivals analyst Josh Helmholdt: When Scott Frost accepted the Nebraska position in November of 2017 but continued on as UCF’s head coach through its bowl game, it was Held who held the Huskers' 2018 class together in the interim and allowed Nebraska to sign 13 in that Early Signing Period.
