Bacon Bits: Iowa State Football Recruiting Notes (4/13/20)

This was the slowest week of offers since I’ve taken over the recruiting duties, offering just five players from all over the country. However, Iowa State picked up two commitments, Robert Army Jr. and Howard Brown.

4-star prize recruit TJ Bollers also cut his list down, and Iowa State made the top six.

I’m guessing Iowa State will pick up a little more over these next couple weeks, as the dead period is drawing to a close.

All ratings are according to 247sports.com

New Offers (4/6/20-4/12/20)

Monday, April 6

2022 LB Jacob Imming (Sergent Bluff, IA) Iowa State is his first offer, but Iowa is also interested. He also appears to be a Cyclone fan.

2022 3-Star WR Nason Coleman (Chandler, AZ)- “I am so stoked to have received an offer from Iowa State. I am also very excited for an opportunity to visit the university sometime when this quarantine situation clears up because I have never been there before. When I was talking to Coach Gordon he mentioned that they pass the ball to the Tight Ends a lot and as a Tight End/ Receiver, hearing him say that was something that got me pretty excited because I like getting the ball in my hands. I also saw that Iowa State had a winning season with a pretty competitive schedule last year, which shows me that the coaches and players work very hard to prepare for successful results. Overall, I’m really excited and grateful to not just further my education at a great university but to also play a sport that I love.”

Offers from Arizona State and BYU.
