"The Cornhuskers secured their top target among transfer quarterbacks in Minchey, a redshirt sophomore with two more years of eligibility who moved on from Notre Dame in search of an opportunity to become a starter in 2026. Minchey officially entered the transfer portal on Friday, the first day of the two-week transfer window in college football. The 6-foot-2, 208-pound passer went through a close offseason competition with CJ Carr for the Notre Dame starting job that extended through preseason camp."
"He threw for 196 yards on 20-of-26 passing and rushed for 84 yards and a touchdown in six appearances this season. Minchey, a former ESPN 300 recruit who was the No. 5 dual-threat quarterback prospect in the 2023 class, gives Rhule and offensive coordinator Dana Holgorsen a quarterback to build around in 2026 after two-year starter Dylan Raiola moved on via the transfer portal."
Kenny Minchey, a Notre Dame transfer and redshirt sophomore, committed to Nebraska and has two years of eligibility remaining. Minchey entered the transfer portal on the first day of the two-week window. The 6-foot-2, 208-pound passer competed closely with CJ Carr for Notre Dame's starting job and completed 20-of-26 passes for 196 yards while rushing for 84 yards and a touchdown in six appearances this season. A former ESPN 300 recruit and the No. 5 dual-threat quarterback in the 2023 class, Minchey provides Matt Rhule and offensive coordinator Dana Holgorsen a quarterback option for 2026 after Dylan Raiola's departure. Nebraska finished 7-6 after late-season injuries and quarterback turnover.
