Nebraska senior wide receiver Isaiah Neyor was selected to the Earl Campbell Tyler Rose Award Watch List on Wednesday.  Neyor, a 6-foot-4, 220-pound wide receiver from Fort Worth, Texas, is in his first season at Nebraska after spending the last two seasons at the University of Texas, where he battled injuries and played in just one game. In 2021 at Wyoming, he was a second-team All-Mountain West selection, catching 44 passes for 878 yards and 12 touchdowns. He led the MWC in both touchdown receptions (12) and yards per catch (19.98), where he ranked in the top-10 nationally in the FCS.

The Earl Campbell Tyler Rose Award recognizes the top offensive player in Division I football who also exhibits the enduring characteristics that define Earl Campbell: integrity, performance, teamwork, sportsmanship, drive, community and tenacity; specifically, tenacity to persist and determination to overcome adversity and injury in pursuit of reaching goals. In addition, the nominee must meet one or more of the following criteria: born in Texas and/or graduated from a Texas High School and/or played at a Texas-based junior college or currently playing at Texas D1 four-year college.
