Nebraska may have lost on the field in Week 8, but the team secured a big win off the field.

The Huskers have flipped an elite 2025 offensive tackle from Kansas. Juju Marks took to social media to announce his commitment to Nebraska after previously being committed to Kansas.

“Final Destination. #GBR,” said the prospect. His post featured an image of himself decked out in a Nebraska uniform at Memorial Stadium. 

Marks stars for Olathe South High School in Olathe, KS. The OL is rated as a 4-star prospect per the 247Sports Composite ranking. The ranking has Marks as the No. 30 OT in the 2025 class and the No. 6 prospect out of Kansas.

In 2023, Marks collected 23 tackles, 1 tackle for loss, and 1 pass breakup. The talented athlete also averaged 4.9 points per game and 4.2 rebounds as a member of the basketball team.

The massive tackle originally committed to Kansas back in June 2024. USC, Missouri, UCF, and others were interested in Marks before his commitment. Marks stands at 6’6″ and weighs in at 290 pounds. The 2025 prospect has played both sides of the ball in high school, excelling on the defensive line as well.

The Nebraska 2025 class now ranks No. 28 in the nation. The team now has 7 prospects with a 4-star rating and 12 3-stars committed for the 2025 class. Marks joins Shawn Hammerbeck, Houston Kaahaaina-Torres, and Brian Tapu as OL who have committed to the Huskers for next season.

It was a rough Week 8 for the Huskers, who lost a 56-7 game to Indiana. The team can look forward to a nice 2025 recruiting class, though.
