Three recent commitments have added size and speed to the Illinois State football recruiting class.
Bringing the speed is versatile Jeff Bowens Jr. of Southfield (Mich.) Arts & Tech High School. The size comes from offensive lineman Aidan Kinnaird of Westlake High School in Austin, Texas, and tight end Nick Kessler of Marysville, Ohio.
That brings to 10 the number of high school standouts who have announced their plans to sign a national letter of intent to play at ISU.
The 5-foot-10, 165-pound Bowens could be utilized as a receiver, cornerback or kick returner by the Redbirds.
