Iowa has secured 13 high school commitments for the 2027 class, featuring standout linebackers, offensive linemen, and playmakers from across the Midwest and beyond.

From Chuck Long’s record‑setting career to Nile Kinnick’s Heisman brilliance, the Hawkeyes have produced a handful of quarterbacks whose impact still reverberates through college football.
Gavin Stecker, a four-star linebacker from Bettendorf, announced his commitment to the Iowa Hawkeyes in December 2023, becoming the first player from the 2027 class to do so. He chose Iowa over offers from Iowa State, Kansas, Kansas State, and Minnesota, drawn by the program's track record of producing NFL linebackers and its enduring culture under head coach Kirk Ferentz.
