Nick Gates heads into the 2016 season as one of the anchors of an offensive line that lost four of its top six players to graduation. The 6-5, 290-pound Gates started at right tackle as a redshirt freshman, but moved to the left side this spring and will hold down that spot. Gates and senior guard Dylan Utter will be counted on to lead the re-tooled offensive line this fall. The Las Vegas native earned a starting job as a redshirt freshman and helped Nebraska field one of the Big Ten’s most productive offenses. Gates’ play as a redshirt freshman earned him recognition on the BTN All-Freshman Team.
Gates was recruited from Bishop Gorman (Las Vegas, NV) class of 2014. He committed to Nebraska on 1/24/2014. He was recruited by Barney Cotton , John Garrison
