Tyler Van Dyke is apparently leaving Wisconsin football as he is reportedly entering the transfer portal. The Wisconsin Badgers quarterback only appeared in three games in the 2024 college football regular season, with his first year with the team cut miniature by a brutal ACL injury he suffered against the Alabama Crimson Tide at Camp Randall Stadium in Madison on September 14.
By Pete Thamel of ESPN: :
Source: Wisconsin quarterback Tyler Van Dyke enters the NCAA transfer portal. He has one year of eligibility left. He had 7,891 passing yards and 55 career TDs in his career with Miami and Wisconsin.
In the Badgers’ three games at center in 2024, Van Dyke, who turns 24 next March, has thrown just 422 passing yards and a touchdown with no interceptions. He also ran for 26 yards and a touchdown on a total of 15 carries for the Badgers, who finished the regular season with just a 5-7 overall record and 3-6 against Big Ten opponents.
Before coming to Wisconsin, Van Dyke spent four years with the Miami Hurricanes.
After Van Dyke was injured against Alabama, the Badgers opted to utilize Braedyn Locke to take over the team’s starting quarterback duties.
Fans react to Wisconsin Football QB’s decision
Social media reactions to Van Dyke’s transfer portal reports were mixed, but many decided to make fun of him with a variety of jokes and memes.
“The guy will be selling life insurance this fall.”
“I feel like Dyke has been playing college football for a decade.”
“Let’s wish him good health and all the best. Like any college football fan, regardless of class or decency. People who slander him in any way are real trash.”
