Three-star Warren (Ohio) G. Harding running back LeShun Daniels picked up an offer from Iowa just two weeks ago, so he did not know much about the program when he left for Iowa City for his official visit. Expecting just endless farmland in the state, Daniels was pleasantly surprised at what he saw.
“The area really impressed because I didn’t know what to expect. I never went to Iowa,” Daniels said. “My picture of Iowa was cornfields everywhere, but Iowa City ain’t too bad. There are things to do. It’s nice and peaceful. I thought it was really good.”
A Boston College commitment, Daniels began exploring his options when the Eagles fired coach Frank Spaziani. Last week, Boston College named Steve Addazio as its new coach.
