80 Days Until Iowa Football: Josiah Miamen

Can the next player on our countdown overcome some offseason turbulence to achieve on the field?

Josiah Miamen - Sophomore
Peoria, IL (Dunlap HS)
6’4”, 242 lbs
2021 Projection: Rotational tight end

Miamen was a high end recruit amidst Iowa’s high usage of tight ends in 2018 and selected the Hawkeyes over offers from Michigan, Notre Dame, and Penn State. He earned first-team all-area and all-conference honors in his junior and senior seasons while maintaining a 4.0 GPA.

Running back his high school tape, he often lines up out wide and uses his big body and impressive catch radius to school smaller defensive backs.
