NORMAL – Two members of Illinois State football’s recruiting class have signed national letters of intent and will enroll at ISU in January.
Offensive tackle Carter DeGraaf of Indiana high school powerhouse Center Grove and athlete Jeff Bowens Jr. of Southfield Arts and Tech High School in Detroit were permitted to make their commitment to ISU official before the December 16 signing day because they will graduate from high school at the end of the current semester.
DeGraaf is a 6-foot-6, 315-pound all-conference lineman for Center Grove, the No. 1-ranked Class 6A team in Indiana. The Trojans are 13-0 after a 48-13 semi-state win over Ben Davis and will face No.
