McDougle to Portal: Huskers' Secondary Boost?
•
Nebraska football fans may have a promising transfer portal target in San Diego State safety Dwayne McDougle. The six-foot-two, 205-pound junior, who started every game this past season, is entering the portal on January second. McDougles impressive stats, including 51 tackles, 4 interceptions, and a forced fumble, could significantly boost Nebraskas secondary. His experience in the four-two-five scheme, under new defensive coordinator Rob Aurich, makes him an ideal fit. With key safeties departing and a challenging schedule ahead, McDougle could provide a much-needed veteran presence.
