Chooses the Huskers Fleeks has committed to play for Nebraska next season, per On3sports.

Impact Fleeks is now slated to suit up for Nebraska next fall following Wednesday's announcement. The 204-pounder has primarily operated as a reserve running back for Baylor across the last four collegiate campaigns, as he rushed 20 times for 72 yards and one touchdown in that span. Fleeks also hauled in 55 passes for 581 yards and two more scores in that stretch given that he previously transitioned from wide receiver to the backfield.

Enters transfer portal Fleeks entered the transfer portal Tuesday, Matt Zenitz of On3.com reports.

Impact Fleeks has 1,571 career all-purpose yards and five touchdowns across four seasons at Baylor. He started his collegiate career as a wideout/return-man, but he transitioned to running back during the 2022 campaign. He should garner plenty of interest in the portal.

Converts to running back Fleeks will challenge for backfield touches in 2022 after converting to running back during the offseason, John Werner of the Waco Tribune-Herald reports.

Impact Head coach Dave Aranda hopes that Fleeks can bring versatility to the backfield and operate similarly to how Trestan Ebner did last season before declaring for the NFL Draft. The fifth-year senior recorded seven receptions for 89 yards while rushing the ball three times for 11 yards in eight games in 2021. Fleeks will compete with Taye McWilliams for touches at running back, though McWilliams likely holds the advantage when it comes to potential carries.

Listed as co-starter Fleeks is listed as a co-starter on the depth for Saturday's season opener at Texas State, according to Tim Watkins of 247Sports.

Impact The senior receiver appeared in eight games for Baylor last season and recorded 21 catches (on 30 targets) for 181 yards and a score, averaging 8.6 yards per reception -- a figure that was a career-low for him. Fleeks is listed as a co-starter alongside Drew Estrada, and both players will have to earn the starting gig on the gridiron -- starting with the season opener at Texas State.
