Nebraska quarterback Dylan Raiola is entering the transfer portal. Raiola will have two years of eligibility remaining.
The quarterback threw for 4,819 yards, 31 touchdowns, and 17 interceptions during his time in Lincoln. He had a 140.8 career passer rating.
Raiola broke out as a freshman in 2024, recording 2,819 yards, 13 touchdowns, and 11 interceptions. He started in 22 total games for the program.
The sophomore had a stellar second season, which was cut short by injury. He threw for 2,000 yards, 18 touchdowns, and six interceptions with a 72.4% completion percentage.
Raiola was injured during Nebraska’s game against USC, getting sacked in the third quarter. The injury forced him out of the rest of the game, and it was confirmed that he suffered a season-ending broken right fibula injury.
This move undoubtedly reshapes the Huskers' quarterback room going forward. It will be interesting to see which direction the program takes and how active they are on the transfer portal for a signal-caller.

What a time
Remember when Kirk Herbstreit talked to Dylan Raiola’s dad & told him Nebraska is where he should go?
And then the Raiolas made the whole thing about legacy & playing at a place where his family’s name hung in the stadium?
What a time to be alive. https://t.co/JW5ACrKvQ5

College sports in shambles
• Florida QB DJ Lagway
• Cincinnati QB Brendan Sorsby
• Michigan State QB Aidan Chiles
• Nebraska QB Dylan Raiola…and it's only noon. College sports is in absolute shambles right now. Losing interest fast.

Might be mutual
I have no comment on this Dylan Raiola transfer news. Please respect my silence on this issue.
Also, I think this decision was mutual. Just sayin'. #Nebraska#Huskers

What if?
Free content for local sports shows:
Would Nebraska, as a program, been better off taking Kyle McCord ahead of the 2024 offseason than Dylan Raiola?
Raiola famously flipped during McCord's official visit to Lincoln. He went to Syracuse and lit things up. https://t.co/aJWkPBep6c
