Overview

  • Minchey entered the NCAA transfer portal on Jan. 2 with two years of eligibility remaining, carrying a do-not-contact designation reported by On3.
  • On3 and 247Sports report Nebraska as a leading suitor, with 247Sports analysts projecting the quarterback to commit to the Cornhuskers.
  • Nebraska is evaluating portal options after Dylan Raiola’s departure, while TJ Lateef remains an in-house candidate at quarterback.
  • If Minchey picks Nebraska, he would be a favorite to start yet still face a competition that includes Lateef, per current reporting.
  • The former four-star recruit never started at Notre Dame, narrowly lost the 2025 job to C.J. Carr, and logged 20-of-26 passing for 196 yards in limited action last season.
