Nebraska football running back target Kylonn Hanie is planning to come back to campus this fall, according to a new report by On3’s Bryan Munson. Haynie is the No. 40 overall running back in the 2027 class, and the third overall player in his class from the state of Nebraska per the Rivals recruiting rankings.
He is very familiar with Nebraska and its campus, having visited the program eight times over the last year. The Huskers have been involved in his recruitment since last April. He most recently visited the program on April 3.

He was effective at running the football in 2024, carrying the ball 146 times for 1,011 yards and six touchdowns. He averaged 6.9 yards per carry and had six games of 100-plus rushing yards. He also proved effective at catching the football, tallying 11 receptions for 137 yards and two touchdowns.
Haine indicated that he liked Nebraska, but Kansas is recruiting him hard. Wisconsin is also recruiting him. That being said, he plans to attend a couple of Nebraska’s home games, in addition to Wisconsin.
It sounds like this recruitment is certainly one that the Huskers are in. It will be interesting to see how it progresses throughout the year, as he has several visits scheduled.
