Indiana Football Will Be Hosting Major Prospects on a Huge IU Sports Weekend

Written by Sammy Jacobs (@Hoosier_Huddle) 

A big weekend in Indiana sports is upon us. The men’s soccer team is out on the west coast trying to complete their “Quest for Nine” in the College Cup. The men’s basketball team is hosting Louisville Saturday afternoon and the undefeated women’s basketball team will go for 9-0 on Sunday against Missouri State in Bloomington on Sunday. While these programs are looking for success on the pitch and the hardwood, the Hoosier football team will be trying to improve their future off the field by hosting 15 prospects that could help Tom Allen and his staff improve upon back-to-back five-win seasons. Here is the breakdown of prospects that will be in Bloomington this weekend from the list given to us by Matt Weaver of Peegs.com (Thanks, Matt):

The Indiana Hoosiers earned the commitment of Jordan Jakes late Thursday night. The talented wide receiver is originally from McDonough, Georgia where he played for Eagle’s Landing Christian Academy. Jakes then moved for his senior year to Baltimore where he played for St. Francis Academy. “I know at St. Francis I’m going to have competition week in and week out,” Jakes said as he explained why he changed schools. Rated as a three-star recruit, Jakes stands 6-foot-4 and weighs in just a shade under 200 pounds. The big bodied, athletic wide out is poised for a promising career in Bloomington.
