No recruiting class is truly complete without a signal caller. Luckily for Iowa fans, the Hawkeyes’ 2019 group has a good one.
Colorado native Alex Padilla is the proverbial straw that stirs the drink in this class. Committed since June, Padilla has been a stalwart in the class. He visited with a number of other commits and targets little over a week after he verbaled.
Today, he’s officially a Hawkeye.
As a senior at Cherry Creek, Padilla finishedhis with 1,963 passing yards and 24 touchdowns with 4 interceptions and a 68% completion percentage. He also had two rushing touchdowns.
