24Recruiting
Iowa had its first top 10 recruiting class in
history. They got many of the local areas best
players. Most of whom are from the Chicago,
Illinois suburbs. The players were most
interested in coach Kirk Ferentzs coaching
strategy. But as they say It doesnt matter
what you get its what you do when you get them.
