One of the goals Nebraska had as it entered the offseason was adding a veteran presence to a receiver room filled with talented — yet young and, for the most part, inexperienced — wideouts, like Malachi Coleman, Jaylen Lloyd, Jaidyn Doss, Demitrius Bell and four true freshmen.
The Huskers took to the transfer portal to meet that goal and landed on Isaiah Neyor on Friday night.
Neyor is a 6-foot-3, 215-pounder who spent the past two seasons at Texas and the prior three at Wyoming, where he was an All-Mountain West Conference selection in 2021. Pending a medical hardship waiver from the NCAA, Neyor will have two seasons of eligibility left.
One of the bigger names for portal receivers when he entered after the 2021 season, Neyor was once committed to Tennessee before ultimately flipping to Texas. Injury kept Neyor’s career with the Longhorns from getting off to a smooth start.
In his first fall camp with Texas in 2022, Neyor sustained a season-ending ACL injury. He returned for 2023, but played in just one game, the season-opener against Rice in which he caught one pass for 14 yards.
Neyor was a two-star recruit in the 2019 class out of Lamar High School in Arlington, Texas. He signed with Wyoming over Stephen F. Austin.
After redshirting his first year with the Cowboys, Neyor played in five games and caught seven passes for 233 yards in 2020. The 2021 campaign was his breakout moment, with Neyor catching 44 passes for 878 yards and 12 touchdowns.
The Husker program has had recent success with one-and-done transfer wideouts, most notably Samori Touré in 2021, Trey Palmer in 2022 and Billy Kemp in 2023, though Touré and Palmer enjoyed stronger seasons than Kemp, who was off-and-on injured and didn’t have the quarterback play Touré and Palmer enjoyed.
Neyor becomes the Huskers’ second incoming transfer of the offseason. He joins cornerback Blye Hill, from St. Francis (PA), an FCS program.
The Huskers are also hosting a second transfer receiver this weekend in former Wake Forest Demon Deacon Jahmal Banks.
Nebraska’s current receiver room returns veteran Isaiah Garcia-Castaneda, who’s coming off an ACL injury, as well as walk-on-turned-scholarship wideout Alex Bullock, and a host of second- and first-year players, led by Coleman, Lloyd and Doss. Marcus Washington, who attempted to get a waiver from the NCAA to play another year, declared for the NFL Draft.
The Huskers are also bringing in talented pass catchers at the tight end position, including hybrids Carter Nelson and Keelan Smith.

(Rick Egan | The Salt Lake Tribune) Utah Jim Harding assistant coach hugs offensive lineman Spencer Fano (55) as they celebrate the Utes’ win over Kansas State.
Three University of Utah starters have decided not to play in the Las Vegas Bowl, head coach Kyle Whittingham says.
Offensive tackles Caleb Lomu and Spencer Fano and defensive end Logan Fano have all declared for the NFL draft.
Lomu, a 6-foot-6, 300-pound sophomore, and Spencer Fano, a unanimous All-America selection this year, are both expected to be first-round picks in April.
“Some people, it’s a lot higher stakes. We’ve got a couple of first-rounders and things like that,” Utah quarterback Devon Dampier said of the opt-outs. “We know those guys love us. … We still support those guys.”
Dampier and senior linebacker Lander Barton both said this week that they intend to play in the game.
“There are definitely conversations that you have to have with agents and people that are around you in your circle,” Barton said of his choice.” But ultimately it’s up to each player.”
Whittingham said a few walk-ons and scout team players have also opted out of the game as they prepare to enter the transfer portal.
“And we also have a handful of guys that are going to go in the portal at that are still practicing with us,” he said. “I think that what we have right now is what we’re going to have.”
The No. 15 Utes take on the Nebraska Cornhuskers on New Year’s Eve in Las Vegas (1:30 p.m. MT, ESPN). It will be Whittingham’s final game as the Utes’ head coach.
“This team has been one of my favorite years,” Whittingham said. “The team’s attitude. The leadership. The work ethic. Just the personality on the field, the vibe of the team is outstanding. Having the chance to be around these guys one more month and go to battle one more time with them was something I wanted to do.”
OMAHA, Neb. (WOWT) – President Donald Trump’s executive order to reclassify marijuana at the federal level is reigniting debate in Nebraska, where voters approved medical marijuana in 2024.
Trump signed the executive order on Thursday, directing federal agencies to reclassify marijuana from a Schedule I drug to Schedule III. The move does not legalize marijuana nationwide but opens the door for more medical research.
Nebraska Attorney General Mike Hilgers joined attorneys general from seven other states in releasing a statement saying they are “concerned” with the order. Hilgers said the science shows marijuana should remain a Schedule I drug.
Sen. Pete Ricketts also opposes the move. He signed a letter with 14 other Republican senators urging Trump not to reschedule marijuana. The letter argues marijuana is linked to mental health issues, impaired driving and workplace accidents.
Local medical marijuana advocate Lia Post disagreed with state leaders’ opposition.
“It just comes to the point, when is enough enough?” Post said.
Post said the argument from state leaders ignores what Nebraska voters decided in November 2024 when they overwhelmingly approved medical marijuana.
“It does open up the door for research, which really makes me happy, and the ability to speak to my doctor. It’s hard to be excited when you know you’re just a part of the big, giant grift that is going on,” Post said.
The federal change would allow the FDA to study marijuana’s medical uses. That could potentially help veterans, seniors, and people with chronic pain. Advocates said it also removes excuses for state leaders to delay implementation.
“I feel like we are in the exact same place we always are with the people wanting medical cannabis, the current law supporting medical cannabis, but the elected officials stopping medical cannabis,” Post said.
The federal rescheduling process could take several more months to finalize. The executive order does not legalize recreational marijuana. Trump made that clear Thursday, saying he is not open to that.
“It is a big deal, it is change, and change is always a big deal. Anything to do with medical cannabis and politics, I have to find the joy in whatever small wins there are, because there are so few,” Post said.
