Two Huskers have hit the transfer portal since the final of the College Basketball Crown, but one local product isn’t going anywhere.
Cale Jacobsen posted to Instagram “All N on red”, signifying he won’t be headed to the portal with Nick Janowski and Gavin Griffiths.
Jacobsen, a redshirt sophomore out of Ashland, played sparingly during the regular season. The 6-4 guard did not see more than three minutes of playing time in a game in 2025 until the College Basketball Crown in Las Vegas.
In the Crown, Jacobsen emerged as a key piece to the run to a postseason title. Over four games, including three starts, he averaged 26 minutes, 5 points, 4.25 rebounds, 3.25 assists, and 1.75 steals. He shot 53% overall, making 3-of-4 3s.

Jacobsen walked-on to the program in 2022, spending his first season as a redshirt on the scout team. In 2023-24, he appeared in 20 games.
Fred Hoiberg continues to revamp the roster for next season, which includes confirmed returners in Jacobsen and Connor Essegian. Nebraska has also added a trio of transfers in Pryce Sandfort from Iowa, Ugnius Jarusevicius from Central Michigan, and former Husker Jamarcus Lawrence back from Rhode Island.
