As five-star quarterback Dylan Raiola gets the lay of the land at Nebraska, he’s begun to get more comfortable with his surroundings. Including a fast-food joint that he’s quickly grown to love.

It has topped, for him, some of the other potential destinations he could hit.

“I mean everyone talks about Runza, I haven’t had it yet,” Raiola said on a recent episode of Bussin’ with the Boys. “But I like Cane’s. I had Cane’s, the first time ever was in Nebraska. So I always go to the same Cane’s right downtown and get me a box combo.”

He even broke down his order for the show’s hosts. Coleslaw is not a go-to for him.

“No, I sub it out,” Dylan Raiola said. “I’m not a slaw (guy). (I get) more toast.”

Raiola explained that one of the reasons he’s such a big fan of Raising Cane’s is that he didn’t eat fast food in high school, trying to stay as lean and in shape as possible while he competed to become one of the top recruits in the country.

He did offer one other fast food opinion on the show.

“I love Shake Shack way better than In-N-Out,” he said.

Dylan Raiola working on recruiting at Nebraska

As Nebraska looks to continue executing an attempted turnaround under coach Matt Rhule, the Cornhuskers have the equivalent of a bazooka on the recruiting trail in the form of Raiola.

He can be a difference-maker when it comes to Nebraska’s recruiting efforts, and he knows it.

“I’m trying to help bring as much talent as I can here,” Raiola said. “Recruiting season now, everyone’s coming through to come see us and I’m getting texts from recruiting people like, ‘Come see this guy, come see this guy.’ I’ve got class and all this stuff, but I’ll come say what’s up.”
