Rivers has one year of eligibility remaining and began his career at Memphis before transferring to FIU in 2023 and finishing with 32 catches for 370 yards that season. Then he broke out this past year, finishing with 62 catches for 1,172 yards and 12 touchdowns per On3 Sports
Expect the Hoosiers to push here for a receiver who can change the game’s complexion with just one play. With the expected losses of Myles Price and Miles Cross, Rivers could be a huge land for the IU program this off-season.
