With just eight days until National Signing Day Indiana has finally landed a quarterback for the 2017 recruiting class. Nick Tronti, from Ponte Vedra H.S. in Florida, was committed to Charlotte before he changed his mind and decided to take his talents to Bloomington. Troni is a six-foot-two, 210-pound dual-threat quarterback who will fit well into the offense that new coordinator Mike DeBord will run at IU. He is a 247Sports Composite two-star recruit, but his senior year stats are tremendous. His 53 total touchdown performance this past season earned him Florida's Mr. Football award. He threw for 3,328 yards and ran for another 650. IU offered him on January 5th and he picked up an offer from Arizona on January 20th.
He held 21 other offers including ones from Nevada, Western Kentucky, FIU, and Florida Atlantic. Indiana now has 22 committed players in the 2017 class and sits at 57th nationally.
