Through six games, Indiana is averaging 515 yards per contest — the fourth most in the country.
And it appears 5-star class of 2025 quarterback Julian Lewis wants to see that Hoosiers offensive attack in person. He will be just one of several high-end 2025 prospects at the game, including a couple more flip candidates and a former IU commit.
On3 national recruiting analyst Steve Wiltfong said on a Thursday podcast he expects Lewis to be a recruiting guest when the Hoosiers host Nebraska on Saturday. It will be the third visit to Bloomington by the Carrollton, Ga. signal caller.
According to the On3 Industry Average, the 6-foot-1 Lewis is a 5-star, the No. 32 overall player in the 2025 class, and the No. 6 QB. A USC commit for more than a year, Lewis took an official visit to Indiana in late May.
Lewis has known IU quarterbacks coach Tino Sunseri since he was a young boy.
Lewis has Carrollton H.S. off to an 8-0 start this season. He has completed 77% of his passes for 1,843 yards, 28 TDs and 4 INTs. He posted the following highlights on his X page today:

And according to Wiltfong, Lewis won’t be the only committed class of 2025 target on the IU campus this weekend.
Indianapolis (Warren Central H.S.) edge rusher Tyrone Burrus is a Louisville commit who Wiltfong says will be at the IU vs. Nebraska game. Burrus is coming to IU when Louisville hosts their own big game vs. Miami, Fla. Burrus is a 3-star, the No. 525 overall player in the class, and the No. 46 edge rusher.
Wiltfong says the Hoosiers are also pushing to get 2025 in-state defensive lineman and Cincinnati commit Benny Patterson III in for the Nebraska game as well. The Newburgh, Ind. product (Caste H.S.) is a 4-star, the No. 223 overall player in the class, and the No. 23 defensive lineman.
247Sports national analyst Tom Loy is reporting 4-star class of 2025 cornerback Byron Baldwin, who decommitted from IU, will also be in Bloomington for the game this weekend.
Indiana’s 2025 recruiting class is currently ranked No. 55 in the nation.
