Amani Hooker

[David1979]

He has been upgraded on 247 to a 4*. Ranked 247 in the class and the 12th best Safety in the class.
Can't believe Minnesota didn't offer him.

From what I've seen and read Mr. Hooker deserves the extra star!! Boy is he gonna fit Iowa!!!!

His senior year was fantastic and so was his video! Great job of coaches evaluating his potential early! Very excited about this kid

One of my favorite recruits in this class. Iowa got another steal.

Yep, I think he is a true gem. Recruiting certainly seems to have improved. Some legitimate athletes set to sign.

Awesome news, sounds like the next DKing !

He reminds me a lot of Tyler Sash. His knack for being in the right place at the right time to intercept passes, as well as his variety of athletic talents (good QB, WR, basketball player too, I believe) are all similar to Sash.

Both seem to be highly regarded three star athletes because they have good, but not great speed/size. However, Sash's football instincts are what set hip apart, and I think we will see the same with Amani.

He wasn't even the regular QB, he took over when the starter got hurt and Armani put up very impressive number both rushing and passing. Great athlete. Great get for the program.

Didn't want to link a rival site, but he still looks 3-star to me?

He is 3* on the composite score but 4* for 247
