Fernando Mendoza’s brother isn’t sticking around.

Alberto Mendoza has reportedly committed to a new school in the wake of Indiana’s national title win.

Alberto, the younger brother of star quarterback Fernando Mendoza, entered the transfer portal shortly after the Hoosiers beat the Miami Hurricanes on Monday night.

According to ON3, he’s headed to Georgia Tech.

“Indiana Hoosiers quarterback Alberto Mendoza has committed to transfer to the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets, On3’s Pete Nakos and Hayes Fawcett learned,” the outlet notes. “He is the younger brother of Heisman Trophy winner Fernando Mendoza.”

The younger Mendoza was his brother’s backup during the season, but didn’t get much time on the field. He made the most of his opportunities, however.

The three-star QB passed for 286 yards, also rushing for 190 yards, registering six total touchdowns.

He may have had an opportunity to start for Indiana next season. His brother is headed to the NFL, and Tom Brady was at Monday’s game scouting for the Raiders. But it became apparent that would not be the case after the Hooisers landed transfer Josh Hoover from TCU.

Hoover joins Indiana after putting up some gaudy numbers for the Horned Frogs. He recorded 9,629 passing yards, 71 touchdowns and 33 interceptions during his time with the program.

Alberto Mendoza wasted little time finding a new home. He’s expected to slot right into Brent Key’s offensive system, given that he’s a threat with his feet.

As for Fernando, he’s likely to be the No. 1 pick in the 2026 NFL Draft. He will make the step up as a rare Heisman national title winner and is the top QB available in this year’s class.

Luka Doncic ‘destroys’ the Mavs on his return. Gets standing ovation and shows love to Mark Cuban

Luka Doncic hits 45 points in his first game in Dallas since being traded to the Los Angeles.

It’s rare for a home crowd to cheer the visiting team, but Luka Doncic’s return to Dallas was no ordinary night.

Just days before February’s trade deadline, the Mavericks shocked the NBA by sending their 26-year-old superstar to the Lakers—a move that outraged fans and sparked backlash toward GM Nico Harrison.

On Wednesday, Doncic played his first game back in Dallas since the trade. The arena was filled with fans in both his old Mavs and new Lakers jerseys, many chanting “Fire Nico” in protest.

Despite the emotion in the air, Doncic delivered a dominant performance, scoring a game-high 45 points to lead the Lakers to a 112-97 win. It was a powerful return for one of the league’s brightest stars—and a night Dallas won’t soon forget

The Mavericks pay tribute to Luka Dončić

While the Mavericks’ decision to trade Luka Doncic remains heavily criticized, they handled his return to Dallas with undeniable grace. The organization made sure his first game back as a Laker was met with respect and appreciation.

Every seat in the arena was draped with a T-shirt reading “Hvala za vse,” which translates from Slovenian to “thank you for everything.” It was a thoughtful nod to Doncic’s heritage and impact on the franchise.

Before tip-off, during the starting lineup announcements, the Mavericks played a tribute video showcasing some of Doncic’s most iconic moments in a Dallas jersey. The emotional gesture clearly resonated—moving Doncic to tears in front of the crowd that once called him their own.

Luka Doncic ‘DESTROYS’ his old team

Luka delivered a dazzling performance against his former team, putting up 45 points on 16-of-28 shooting, including 7-of-10 from beyond the arc. He also added 8 rebounds, 6 assists, and 4 steals in a game that showed exactly why he’s one of the best in the league.

From the opening tip, Doncic was locked in. By halftime, Doncic had racked up 31 points on 11-of-16 shooting in just 19 minutes—marking the 10th time in his career he’s scored 30 or more in a single half.

Though his scoring slowed in the second half, he continued to lead effectively, securing both a Lakers win and an unforgettable showing for the fans in Dallas.
