Northwestern football recruiting update: Jirehl Brock commits to Iowa State, and more

Northwestern’s 2019 recruiting class current has 15 commits (counting Hunter Johnson), meaning we can expect several more commitments to fill out the class. One thing to note: with Hunter Johnson’s commitment, it appears as if the NU staff is content to stand pat at quarterback — all of the QBs NU offered after Cale Millen decommitted have now committed elsewhere.

As it currently stands, here are the positional breakdowns of the class:

  • QB: 1
  • RB: 0
  • WR: 2
  • SB: 1
  • OL: 3
  • DL: 3
  • LB: 2
  • CB: 2
  • S: 1

With that in mind, here are some updates on recent recruiting developments for Pat Fitzgerald & Co:

Brock, a four-star running back out of Quincy, Illinois, committed to Iowa State this past Friday after appearing to narrow his list to Northwestern, Minnesota and the Cyclones.
