Hoosiers Land Two Power Five Wide Receiver Transfers
/Written by Sammy Jacobs (@Hoosier_Huddle)
The Indiana Hoosiers landed a pair of Power Five transfers in Wake Forest wide receiver Ke’Shawn Willams and Texas Tech wide out Myles Price overnight.
Williams, who plays in the slot, was Wake Forest’s third leading receiver in 2023. He made 38 catches for 384 yards and a touchdown. He also ran the ball three times. In his four years with the Demon Decans, Williams played in 46 games and totaled 107 receptions for 1,385 yards and five touchdowns. the 5’10” 190-lbs senior from Philadelphia gives the Hoosiers a presence in the slot that they sorely lacked the last couple season. Williams could also return kicks and has the speed to be a game breaker.
Price, who has the same measurables as Williams, played four seasons at Texas Tech and will also help boost production from the slot. Last season, Price was the Red Raiders leader in receptions with 43 and finished the season with 410 yards and five touchdowns. In his four years in Lubbock Price played in 32 games making 161 catches for 1,751 yards and 10 touchdowns.
Price and Williams both have experience returning punts and kicks, an area which IU also needed to address with Jaylin Lucas still in the portal.
