Arik Gilbert, former Georgia football tight end, commits to Nebraska
ATHENS — Another Georgia Bulldog will be heading up to Lincoln, Neb. to play for Matt Rhule and the Nebraska Cornhuskers. Former Georgia tight end Arik Gilbert committed to Nebraska on Thursday afternoon, joining former teammate MJ Sherman.

Good luck Arik. Nebraska needs all the help it can get....and then some.
I hope things work out great for AG at Nebraska. I’m not very familiar with that program, I don’t know much about Matt Ruhle, and after two years at UGA I can’t say I know very much about Arik Gilbert. If they are successful with getting him on the field, he will probably be a game changer.
GO DAWGS!
(and good luck AG)
Really glad for Arik, but if he sees the field early/often I’ll have a lot of questions about the standard Coach Rhule is putting in place.
Nebraska turning out to be UGA's satellite facility. LOL
Beat of luck in Lincoln, Mr. Gilbert..GoDAWGS!
Sweet! Good Luck, AG!
Best of luck Arik, I hope you find happiness and fulfillment with the change of climates. You have immense talents and Nebraska can certainly use them. Get healthy and get on the field!
Lol. Another one to the big ten. Hope he is able to get the help he is looking for and have a long happy life, but man Nebraska haha
Well, the bar isn't exactly sky high. Gilbert probably walks onto campus already the most talented player the program has seen in years. If he feels like he's ready to go, what's Rhule got to lose by putting him out there?
I will be watching to see if the new surroundings of Nebraska wakes this kid up. What a talent - it just seems like he has been walking in a fog the last two years. I wish him the best!
Maybe he will yet find inner peace that would allow him to live up to his potential. Sorry it couldn't be at UGA.
Nebraska is a long way from his support group.
Yep, I hope he finds what he needs. My suspect is that he's going to find that football doesn't have the path he's looking for.
