PORTAL SHOCKER: QB Kenny Minchey dumps Nebraska. What now for the Huskers?

from Locked On Nebraska - Daily Podcast on the Nebraska Cornhuskers · host Locked On Podcast Network

So much for the Kenny Minchey era of Nebraska football. The former Notre Dame quarterback left the Huskers at the altar on Monday. Minchey, who committed to Nebraska on Sunday, signed just 24 hours later with Kentucky. Yes, we’ve got drama here in the transfer portal season. What else would you expect? Nebraska is back in the market for a QB. Where will it look, and how much more will it have to pay? Elsewhere, linebacker Owen Chambliss is in for Nebraska as a transfer from San Diego State. So is former Iowa State offensive guard Brendan Black. Linebacker Willis McGahee IV is leaving Lincoln. And 10th-ranked Nebraska improved to 15-0 on the basketball court Monday night with a 72-69 win at Ohio State. This story is getting more wild by the day – and with each win for Fred Hoiberg’s team.
