Believe it or not, the football season is about 1/3rd of the way done already! Of course, there is still a long way to go, but I wanted to take a look at some of the incoming freshman in Iowa's recruiting class next year. Looks like the recruiters are keeping busy...
Andrew Donnal, OL, 6-7, 265
- another talented and huge Offensive lineman to add to the mix
- had his pick of Big Ten schools
- made solid verbal committment
Marcus Coker, RB, 6-1, 225
- rushed for almost 400 yrs in one game (!) for Dematha Catholic High School
- attributed the success of Shonn Greene and their similar running styles to his desire to play for Iowa
- made solid verbal committment
AJ Derby, QB, 6-4, 210
- versatile athlete and highest rated football recruit in Iowa this year, plays for Iowa City High
- recruited by schools from across the nation including Florida, Michigan, LSU, Alabama, and Nebraska
- expected to make verbal committment Friday, Oct 2 to the Hawkeyes
These 3 players seem to be the cream of the crop, but if there's one thing I've noticed in looking at Iowa's recruiting classes, it's that Ferentz knows how to find a diamond in the rough. I could be overlooking someone, but that's what makes it interesting!
Here are a few other names to keep an ear out for...
- Seantrel Henderson, one of the top ten high school players in the nation
- Andre Dawson, Cedar Rapids native
- James Kohler, Ames native
