The Indiana Hoosiers gained their third commitment to the recruiting class of 2025 in Illinois defensive back Garrett Reese. The La Grange Park, IL native is rated a three-star prospect by 247Sports and is listed at 6’2” and 170 pounds.

Reese has good length to play in the secondary and figures to play in the new ‘Rover’ position in Byrant Haines ’ defense. He played both ways in high school and was offered by IU early in February. Reese has offers from 10 schools, but IU was his only Power Four offer so far.

On his NCSA Sports profile, Reese decribes himself as:

“I am a high character young man that comes from an athletic family. Both parents and older brother played at the collegiate level, along with my uncles, aunts and cousins. I inherited great genes and have been working on and dreaming about playing football at a higher level since I can remember.  I love this game, along with the character building and camaraderie that comes with it.  I am goal driven and will work hard to achieve common team goals. I am motivated to win and winning brings me joy. I have good football instincts to depend on to make plays.”

Here are his highlights.
