HAVE A SEAT, CHEVIN CALLOWAY

Iowa strikes (black and) gold in the Lone Star State with a highly-coveted defensive back.

Another week, another Texas-area football commit? Yep. Eno Benjamin has been the Pied Piper of Iowa's football recruiting efforts for the Class of 2017 and he isn't slowing down -- and the recruits he's helping Iowa land are getting better and better. On Monday Iowa added a verbal commitment from another Dallas-area football player, Chevin Calloway, who announced his commitment via Periscope.

Landing Calloway is a big deal for Iowa -- like, a really, really, reallybig deal. He's a consensus 4* recruit and very highly regarded by all of the recruiting services: Scout ranks him #109 overall, 247 tabs him #103 overall, and Rivals grades him as the #89 overall prospect in 2017.
