Iowa Football added its third known verbal commitment in the 2025 recruiting class on Saturday. The latest pledge came from Indiana quarterback Jimmy Sullivan, who announced his decision on Saturday. 

Sullivan also reported scholarship offers from Illinois, Michigan State, Minnesota and seven MAC programs. He started his last two seasons at Fort Wayne (IN) Carroll High and has one year to play. 

Rivals and On3 had not yet ranked Sullivan (6-2, 180) at the time of publishing. 247Sports rated him as a three-star, the No. 52 quarterback nationally in '25 and the No. 15 overall player in Indiana for the cycle. 

In nine games as a senior, Sullivan completed 54 percent of his passes for 1,508 yards and 18 touchdowns with seven interceptions. He added 406 yards and five scores rushing, according to MaxPreps

The Hawkeyes currently have Cade McNamara, Deacon Hill and Marco Lainez as quarterbacks on their current roster. James Rezar, a '24 signal caller from Florida, is expected to sign his national letter of intent with Iowa on Wednesday.
