BREAKING NEWS: Twin Defensive Ends Darryll and Mandrel Dasir Decommit from Florida State, Sign with Nebraska Huskers Over Alabama, Texas, and Others — Full Details Inside
In a shocking turn of events on the recruiting trail, four-star twin defensive ends Darryll and Mandrel Dasir have officially flipped their commitments from Florida State and signed with the Nebraska Cornhuskers. The powerhouse twins, originally hailing from Houston, Texas, were considered cornerstone commits for FSU’s 2025 recruiting class. However, late momentum from Matt Rhule’s staff in Lincoln proved too strong to resist.
The decision comes after weeks of behind-the-scenes buzz and rising speculation that the twins were having second thoughts about their initial pledge to the Seminoles. According to sources close to the family, the Dasir brothers were blown away by Nebraska’s vision, player development, and the culture Rhule is building — one that prioritizes not only athletic excellence but also leadership and brotherhood.
The twins made official visits to Nebraska, Alabama, and Texas over the past month. Many insiders predicted Nick Saban’s Crimson Tide (now under new leadership) would seal the deal. Others thought the lure of staying close to home and playing for the Longhorns would sway them back to the Lone Star State. But in the end, it was Nebraska’s consistency, defensive scheme, and a personal connection with defensive line coach Terrance Knighton that sealed the deal.
Darryll, ranked as the No. 6 edge rusher in the class, and Mandrel, not far behind at No. 10, are expected to make an immediate impact in the Huskers’ front seven. Their combination of speed, power, and football IQ has already drawn comparisons to past NFL-bound duos.
This marks a massive win for Nebraska — not only stealing two elite recruits from a blue-blood program like Florida State, but also outmaneuvering Alabama and Texas in the process. With the Dasir twins now locked in, Nebraska’s 2025 class jumps into the national Top 10 rankings, and Rhule’s vision of restoring the program to national prominence just became a whole lot more real.
