College football extra: Iowa finds its future QB

On Iowa
Most of the Big Ten’s football programs filled their 2017 quarterback quotas in recent months, and some took care of their needs at that position with players who had been on Iowa’s radar.

Michigan State plucked Rocky Lombardi out of West Des Moines. Maryland and Rutgers kept local talents Kasim Hill and Johnathan Lewis close to home.

All three players reportedly held scholarship offers from Iowa, and their decisions to play elsewhere forced the Hawkeyes to extend their search for a quarterback.
