Ugh. This kid is an absolute stud. Reminds me a lot of young Jaleel Johnson.
Hopefully his location close to Iowa and the fact Iowa invested in him when no one else wouldn't pays off..
So 2018 Iowa is about to have three players on the team with Alabama offers? Wirfs, Epenesa, and Nixon. Did I miss anyone?
Jesus guys relax the kid said he's enrolling just relax who cares if bama offered he doesn't want to sit next year they have NFL guys sitting on the bench now
You just have to hope that he sticks to his word after Iowa put all the time and effort in and stuck by him. I loved this kids HS film.
Wow, he must have really shot up the ranks.
Looks like his only offers out of high school besides Iowa were Purdue and MAC schools.

Would Nixon "sign" in December then? I would have to think he stays with Iowa given everything that's occurred with being a late bloomer, getting B10 offer, grades, IWCC, etc.
Came across his tape about Dec. of last year and was floored he wasn't getting more offers, sure grades were a concern but he's a beast on tape and at that time was covering kickoffs for his team!
Stats to date at IWCC:
29 tackles and 2.5 sacks in 8 GP. Didn't list any TFLs..

Win National titles or hope to scrape by enough cupcakes to get a bowl game. I would love to convince myself this kid will take into account the loyalty of the Iowa coaches but really wouldn't blame him if he heads south.
If he is truly NFL talent, they'll find him whether he is at Bama or Iowa.

8.5 tackles for loss. Nixon said "still committed to Iowa...as of right now." Hmm...

“Right now I am still committed,” Nixon told Land of 10 on Wednesday. “Right now I am just taking my time with everything and thinking about my next move before I try to do anything.”
As for his recruitment, Nixon said he’s “not sure” how it impacts anything going forward.
He may visit Alabama, too. He’s still processing the offer before thinking about what comes next.
Well then.

So did we lose that scholarship that was offered to Nixon and was Iowa influential in placing him at IWCC.
With what he's done at IWCC and now an offer from 5 Star U, hard not to think he's a starter next year. He's listed at 6-4 305 for the Reivers. Lots of encouraging things on his twitter and articles to make you feel he considers himself a Hawkeye already. I'm more exited we're getting a great DT, would of been nice to have him this year!
Doesn't sound very committed does it. Hopefully he stays with the Hawks. Can't really blame the kid for taking a long look at Bama, but it will be interesting to see just where he fits in their treasure trove of 5 star recruits.
I know kids wont see it this way, but the Iowa staff has a great track record of putting DL guys in the league. Add on to that he has a much better chance of seeing the field here to display his talent (as you mentioned with the backlog of 4-5* guys there). It really is a no brainier for the kid to come here if that is his goal, and not winning conference/national titles.
Chances are he won't see it my way based off those comments.
I agree totally, but these kids are often blinded by the shiniest bobble, and we know thats not Iowa in this case. As you said though, Iowa's track record of placing linemen, both offensive, and defensive in the league, is every bit as impressive as Bama, maybe more so.
Not even close on defensive lineman...they have 10 DL in the NFL right now, as well as 10 OL, so closer on OL.
They have 7 on the offensive line.. and 10 on defensive line. Where Iowa has 9 on the o-line and and 5 on the defensive line.. 17-14 in total line players isn't that big of difference.. anything else you want to be wrong about
Sounds like he wants to take a visit to Alabama that'll go over like a turd in the punch bowl with Captain Kirk
I may be getting in over my head with this next question but are our facilities on par with Alabama I've seen it video of ours and they look pretty fancy don't know about Bama
