Mac Markway, a former tight end for LSU, has transferred to Nebraska after one season with the Tigers, where he played in 12 games and recorded three receptions for 16 yards and a touchdown. He announced his move shortly before the 2024 season began and began practicing with the Cornhuskers on Tuesday, just days before their season opener against UTEP. Markway's decision to leave LSU was influenced by the strong competition for playing time at the tight end position, with multiple players emerging as significant contributors. His father expressed confidence in Nebraska's rising program and its tight end-heavy offense, which may provide Markway with more opportunities. While he has not yet appeared on Nebraska's official roster, he is expected to contribute this season, although there are questions about his eligibility and potential redshirt options. Nebraska is looking to improve upon last season's 5-7 record under head coach Matt Rhule.
