Did you really think we’d make it through a day without the words “portal” or “database” or “transfer” not being utilized?
This week, Erick Doke announced on his personal Twitter account that he has “decided that it is in my best interest to transfer from” Northern Illinois. “My recruitment is now open,” the running back added.
The social media post also shows that Doke is officially in the NCAA transfer database.
Time to work 🙏🏾 pic.twitter.com/xR4jL0DypI

Doke was a two-star member of the Huskies’ 2018 recruiting class who didn’t record a stat his true freshman season. If the back ultimately ends up at another FBS program, he would, more than likely, be forced to sit out the 2019 season. He would then have two seasons of eligibility he could use beginning in 2020.
