The Iowa football squad has tapped into the Indianapolis pipeline for much of their talent lately. Tyrone Tracy, Jr., D.J. Johnson, Julius Brents, and Justin Britt are all freshmen or sophomores the Hawkeyes have plucked from the Hoosier state. The team recently made an offer to two-star linebacker Jay Higgins, who will take an official visit on June 21.
The 6’2” 215-pound recruit will be a senior at Brebeuf Jesuit High School in the fall and took unofficial visits with Wisconsin, Purdue, and Iowa in fall 2018. He holds a dozen offers from mostly MAC schools but 247Sports’s crystal ball prediction has him headed to the Hawkeyes as part of an already strong 2020 recruiting class.
