Nebraska's 2028 Flag Football Inaugural Season: Opportunities for Shawnee's Top Prospects
As the University of Nebraska prepares to launch its inaugural flag football season in 2028, top prospects from Shawnee's Mill Valley Jaguars are taking notice. The Big Ten powerhouse, led by coaches Liz and Katie Sowers, will offer a minimum of 12 scholarships to student-athletes. For Shawnee's top flag football talent, this development presents a prime opportunity to earn a full-ride scholarship. Ottawa University, Kansas, a national powerhouse in the NAIA, also offers up to 12 scholarships. Keiser University, Florida, and Midland University, Nebraska, are active recruiters in the NAIA. Meanwhile, UT Arlington is developing its program, but has not yet begun offering scholarships. Prospective student-athletes from Mill Valley can take concrete steps to elevate their recruiting profiles by attending summer camps and showcases, and by maintaining strong academic records.
