Patrick O’Brien is transferring from Nebraska football. His destination is not yet clear, but the former blue-chip quarterback recruit briefly explained his decision on Twitter not long after head coach Scott Frost announced it.

For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
