Iowa basketball’s Class of 2019 has officially been sent into gear, as a familiar face announced his commitment to the Hawks via Twitter on Thursday evening.
That’s right, folks. To absolutely no one’s surprise, Fran McCaffery’s middle son has declared his intent to follow his elder brother Connor’s lead and play for his father at Iowa. The 6’8”, 180 lb. forward is ranked a composite four-star by 247, the 36th ranked recruit in the Class of 2019, and the top high school player in the state of Iowa, but teams wouldn’t touch him with a 10-foot pole - he received no scholarship offers outside of Iowa’s, likely because coaches didn’t want to waste their efforts recruiting a kid who was as sure a bet as they come to play for his father.
