Iowa Football Recruiting: 3-Star Illinois DB AJ Lawson Commits to Hawkeyes

This is shaping up to be a massive weekend for Iowa football recruiting. We’ve been telling you week about this weekend’s big official visit weekend with more than 20 visitors on campus, including some of Iowa’s top targets in 2020.

Before things could even get kicked off, the Hawkeyes got some incredible news with the commitment of 4-star 2021 offensive lineman Connor Colby last night. Now, less than 24 hours later, they have their first 2020 commitment of the weekend.

Lawson is a long, talented defensive back from Decatur, Illinois. He appears to be another Phil Parker special.
