T.J. Otzelberger has struck once again with the 2022 class. Demarion Watson, a forward from Minneapolis has committed to Iowa State. Iowa State made the 6ft 7in forward a priority when they offered him earlier in the year. Kyle Green recruited Watson during his time as an assistant at Northern Iowa.
Watson currently has a three star prospect with a 92 overall composite rating according to 247sports. There was a time where Watson was a four star but some struggles on the AAU circuit pushed him down a star. Though there will be time for him to gain that back.
