Nothing is set in stone between Nebraska football and former Texas Longhorns downfield weapon Isaiah Neyor, but the wide receiver is set to visit the Cornhuskers this weekend as part of his decision to test the waters of the transfer portal, according to Husker Online’s Sean Callahan (h/t Andrew Graham of On3).
Neyor began his college career in 2020 with the Wyoming Cowboys, where he remained until the 2021 season. He was injured during a preseason camp in 2022 and played in only one game for the Longhorns in 2023.
Neyor is currently looking for a new opportunity, possibly with Nebraska football. The Cornhuskers’ passing attack was not exactly thrilling in 2023, finishing 128th in the nation with only 135.9 total yards per game, but there’s a chance they’ll be much more prolific on the air in 2024, especially with five-star quarterback Dyland Raiola joining the team. Billy Kemp IV led the Cornhuskers with 310 receiving yards and a touchdown in 2023.
Neyor’s 2021 season with the Cowboys remains his greatest in college thus far. During that season, he had 878 receiving yards and 12 touchdowns on 44 receptions. Neyor’s potential remains, as he has many years of eligibility remaining due to the Covid epidemic in 2020 and his injury in 2022.
Nebraska football just ended a disastrous 2023 season, their first under head coach Matt Rhule, finishing 5-7 overall. Nebraska lost their final four games of the season and were therefore ineligible for a bowl invitation.
