Former James Madison offensive lineman Trent Wilson commits to Hawkeye football
By Hawk Fanatic
IOWA CITY, Iowa – Shortly after it was learned that Iowa defensive back Koen Entringer had entered the transfer portal, the Hawkeyes added a player from the portal as former James Madison offensive lineman Trent Wilson committed to Iowa on Tuesday.
Wilson, a 6-foot-4, 300-pound freshman, played 382 snaps at both left guard and right guard, and started one game this season, helping JMU win the Sun Belt Conference title.
He has three seasons of eligibility.
ESPN’s Pete Thamel was the first to report to report Wilson’s commitment.
Wilson’s commitment came just a few hours after former Elon defensive end Kahmari Brown committed to Iowa on Tuesday.
But on the flipside, Entringer apparently has decided to move on with one season of eligibility.
Wilson is being brought in to help ease the transition on the offensive line as Iowa moves on without veteran starters Beau Stephens at guard, Gennings Dunker at tackle and Logan Jones at center, all of whom have used up their eligibility.
They all three made first-team All-Big Ten, and Jones also won the Rimington Award as the nation’s top center.
