Former Oregon running back Dante Dowdell announced his commitment to Nebraska on Saturday.

Dowdell a four-star prospect in the Rivals transfer rankings, and he is rated as the No. 6 RB and No. 88 overall player in this year's transfer portal cycle.

Dowdell spent the 2023 season with the Ducks as a true freshman and played in six games, where he rushed for 90 yards and one touchdown on 17 carries. He left the Ducks seeking more opportunity outside of their loaded backfield. The Mississippi native will have four years to play three seasons.

Dowdell is the third transfer Nebraska has taken this offseason, joining cornerback Blye Hill from St. Francis (PA), an FCS program, and receiver Isaiah Neyor, formerly of Texas and Wyoming.
