the NCAA doesn't require coaches to sit out a year because the member institutions do not want it.

very simple

obviously, the member institutions want to be able to force players to sit a year in most cases

Oliver Martin has landed with the Hawkeyes. Iowa is a 3-star school, and just landed a 4-star player. Every little bit helps.

I saw an Iowa blog say that Iowa hasn't had a WR catch a pass in the NFL since Kevin Kasper, who played for Ferentz, but was a walk on recruit under Hayden Fry.  I know nobody is confusing Iowa for WR U, but I found that stat shocking.

I saw that too. Iowa has had team record setting receivers during the Ferentz era such as Darrell Johnson-Koulianos (sp?), and Marvin McNutt, that never made it in the NFL.

In 2018, Noah Fant with TE size but not a quintessential TE blocker, had WR speed, was sometimes split out wide. We will see how he is used in the NFL.

Former Rutgers tight end Travis Vokolek announced his decision to transfer to Nebraska on Tuesday via Twitter. The tight end chose the Huskers over Iowa and Kansas State. Vokolek had visited all three schools in the spring.

The Huskers were the final visit for Vokolek, stopping in the final week of May. The tight end was expected to have a quick decision shortly thereafter, but instead it took him nearly two weeks longer to decide between the three midwest schools.

He'd have two seasons of eligibility after sitting out one year. There is a possibility Vokolek could be a "blueshirt" addition, since his visit to Nebraska wasn't an official one, and he didn't have a recruitment triggered by the Huskers. In such a case, a player could end up receiving a scholarship after enrolling in classes and it counting toward the 2020 class. That possibility in this case, would keep open space for another possible transfer addition yet in the 2019 cycle.

Another former Husker player is headed to Oregon State.

Former Nebraska punter Caleb Lightbourn announced on social media on Thursday that he was transferring to the Pac-12 school, joining quarterback Tristan Gebbia, wide receiver Tyjon Lindsey and linebacker Avery Roberts, who have all made similar journeys west.

Lightbourn announced he would transfer from Nebraska shortly after the end of spring practice after it was clear that he was down the depth chart heading into his final season in Lincoln.


The senior, who was on scholarship, lost the starting role as the punter and kickoff man in the middle of last season, as he struggled with some of his directional kicking.

This is a case where the “portal” is the label that hits every kid that gets tossed from a team.
