Big hit to Nielson's new team, Andrew Van Ginkel is transferring to Iowa Western (a JUCO school). Sounds like he wants to spend a year at a decent JUCO school and transfer up to a P5 FBS for his last 2 years. It's one route from FCS to FBS without having to sit out a "transfer year".

When USD played us, Van Ginkel had 4 solo tackles (5 total), 1 tackle for loss (of 3 yards), and 2 QB hurries. He had the potential to be one of the top defensive players in the conference for the next 3 years.

For those that don't know, this tweet lays out his stats and rank in the league.

That'd be nice, but no. He'll be going FBS, likely Big 12 or Big 10, would be my guess.
