There are unlikely to be any major surprises as the Iowa Hawkeyes football program moves toward national signing day (Feb. 6). The program's top priority is to make sure that those players from whom it has received verbal commitments make it to Iowa City.

That doesn't mean that there aren't players whose commitments, in their way, have a higher value to the program than others.

The recruit's value is determined not only by the talent that he has demonstrated in high school, but also by how high his ceiling appears to be, how much he can immediately help the program, how much he can help the program in the future and what positions the Hawks are most in need of.
