Top Iowa High School Football OL Commits To Iowa

One of the top Iowa high school football Class of 2027 players is off the board - and he’s done so by committing to state in-state.

Nate Brenneman, a senior-to-be for the Boyden-Hull/Rock Valley football team in the fall, announced on social media that he will attend the University of Iowa to play football.

“First of all, I want to give thanks to God and blessing me with this opportunity,” Brenneman posted on X (formerly known as Twitter). “Thanks to my family, friends and coaches for helping me throughout this process. Thank you to the Iowa staff in believing in me.

“With that being said, I have decided to commit to the University of Iowa. You will get my best.”
