Iowa's latest football commitment makes a quick impression.
One day after being offered a scholarship, running back Leshon Williams of Illinois Class 6A power Oak Lawn Richards announced Thursday he will become a Hawkeye.
"Is it really a surprise???" Williams wrote on Twitter in announcing that he had become the 10th member of Iowa's 2020 recruiting class.
The 5-foot-10, 208-pound back rushed for 2,115 yards and 24 touchdowns last season for a 12-1 Richards team which reached the state semifinals.
Williams gave Rock Island a quick taste of his blend of power and elusiveness, which caught the eye of a growing number of college recruiters.
