Former Nebraska Quarterback Dylan Raiola Commits To Oregon

Former Nebraska quarterback and Ohio State commit Dylan Raiola has found a new home out of the transfer portal. Raiola announced he was committing to Oregon on Monday.

Raiola was a five-star recruit out of high school, who originally committed to Ohio State before ultimately signing with Nebraska.

Raiola was with the Cornhuskers for two seasons and was the team’s starting quarterback both years.

As a freshman, Raiola committed 67.1 percent of his passes for 2,819 yards, 13 touchdowns and 11 interceptions. In 2025, Raiola improved on those numbers before he suffered a season-ending broken fibula injury during his team’s 21-17 loss to USC on Nov. 1. Making nine starts, Raiola completed 72.4 percent of his passes for 2,000 yards, 18 touchdowns and six interceptions.

The Ducks have had plenty of success with other transfer quarterbacks. Former Oregon quarterback Bo Nix transferred in from Auburn and helped lead the Ducks to back-to-back double-digit win seasons.

This year, Oregon was led by Dante Moore, who transferred in from UCLA. Moore completed 72.4 percent of his passes for 3,046 yards, 28 touchdowns and eight interceptions on the way to earning All-Big Ten third-team honors. 

However, Moore is projected to be an early selection in the 2026 NFL draft if he decides to leave Oregon early. If Moore declares for the NFL Draft after this season, it could pave the way for Raiola to get on the field next year.

Ohio State is set to host Oregon next year as part of its Big Ten schedule. The Buckeyes already matched up against Raiola in 2024, when he was with Nebraska. The Buckeyes won that game 21-17.
