Husker redshirt freshman WR Darien Chase in NCAA transfer portal

The Class of 2019 signee played in four games last season and appeared to be in the mix for more playing time in a crowded position group.

Played in four games in 2019.

Chase was a four-star recruit out of high school, checking in as the No. 200 overall player in the nation according to 247Sports and the top player out of the state of Washington.

[Troy] Walters was Chase's primary recruiter and one of the reasons he left Union High in the Pacific Northwest and chose Nebraska over Utah, Boise State and others.

Thought he was going to be good for us. Guess not.

Maybe that is the reason Frostee got a new coach too.

Wonder what the back story is. Thought too many WR’s recruited? Was tight with Walters? Didn’t mix with the team? Family stuff?

Top 200 and didn't see much playing time at our worst position. Either he's not that good or we are horrible at id'ing talent.

Sorry to see you go. You must do what's best for you. Good luck in all you pursue.

Sounds like some other struggles driving the desire to be closer to home? It happens. Good luck, kid. Was looking forward to seeing you do great things in a Husker uniform, but if your heart and mind are elsewhere then you have to do what's best for you.

I wish him best, sounds like it’s in his best interest. Mental health is not something one should ignore

Best wishes to him ... hope he surrounds himself with good people that can help with the mental health issues.

This is the kind of transfer situation I'm never sad about. Kid sounds like he knows where he priorities need to be - beyond just football.

Best of luck to him.
