Nevada's football program has secured two new commitments that bolster its 2027 recruiting class. Tight end Talon Sosky, a 6‑4, 205‑pound prospect, chose the Wolf Pack after receiving offers from Idaho and Montana State. Offensive lineman Deshaun Jackson, standing 6‑5 and weighing 270 pounds, also pledged to Nevada, drawing interest from several other schools.
Recruiting Momentum
The additions bring the total known commitments in the class to six, underscoring the coaching staff's ability to attract talent across the West. Both players are expected to enroll in the upcoming academic year and will join a roster that is already showing signs of depth and versatility.
Dallas Tournament Preview
The Nevada men's basketball team will travel to Frisco, Texas, for a three‑team showcase that includes matchups against Colorado State and Loyola Chicago. The games are scheduled for December 18 and December 20 respectively, offering the Wolf Pack a chance to test its depth early in the season.
Colorado State entered the tournament with a KenPom ranking of 88, while Loyola Chicago sat at 280, suggesting a contrast in experience and statistical performance that could shape the outcomes.
CFL Early Success
Meanwhile, former Nevada quarterback Cody Fajardo is making headlines in the Canadian Football League. He helped the Edmonton Elks open the season with two straight victories, completing 66.7 percent of his passes for 497 yards, two touchdowns and one interception over two games, and adding 31 rushing yards and a score.
The early wins mark a departure from the Elks' recent history, as the club had started each of the past five seasons 0‑2. Fajardo's performance adds a new narrative to the CFL landscape and highlights the impact of Nevada alumni in professional football.
