3-star 2023 WR Jarriett Buie Jr. picks up Iowa Hawkeyes offer

Jarriett Buie, a three-star 2023 wide receiver from Tampa, Fla., picked up an offer from the Iowa Hawkeyes.

As Iowa works to put some of the finishing touches on its 2023 recruiting class, Hawkeye wide receivers coach Kelton Copeland and the rest of Iowa’s staff have identified one more playmaker they’d love to add to it.

The Hawkeyes offered class of 2023 wide receiver Jarriett Buie Jr. out of Jesuit High School in Tampa, Fla. The 6-foot-3, 185 pound wide receiver also holds Power Five offers from Duke, Iowa State and West Virginia.

In addition, Buie has offers from Arkansas State, Bowling Green, James Madison, Mercer, Middle Tennessee State, and Toledo.

According to ESPN and On3, Buie is a three-star recruit. ESPN rates Buie as the nation’s No. 140 wide receiver and as the No. 154 player from Florida. Meanwhile, On3 ranks Buie as the No. 144 wide receiver in the 2023 class and as the No. 152 player from Florida.

According to MaxPreps, Buie registered 32 receptions for 402 receiving yards and five touchdowns in 14 games with Jesuit High School in 2021. He averaged 12.6 yards per catch as Jesuit finished a perfect 15-0 and as 6A state champions.

Buie would bring a track and field background to Iowa City if he winds up picking the Hawkeyes. In this past track season with Jesuit, Buie recorded a 100-meter dash of 11.49 seconds.

He would also bring a football background to Iowa City. His father played defensive end at South Florida and spent some time with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers as an undrafted free agent in 2009.

The Hawkeyes’ 2023 class consists of 17 commits and is currently rated as the nation’s No. 16 class by Rivals, the No. 19 class by 247Sports, the No. 21 class by On3 and the No. 24 class by ESPN.

Another wide receiver name to keep an eye on in the 2023 class as the summer begins to come to a close is Bryson Vowell out of Anderson County High School in Clinton, Tenn. He has a crystal ball prediction in to land with Iowa from HawkeyeInsider‘s Sean Bock.

Iowa Hawkeyes offer 2023 WR Bryson Vowell out of Tennessee

The Iowa Hawkeyes offered class of 2023 wide receiver Bryson Vowell out of Anderson County High School in Clinton, Tenn.

Iowa offered class of 2023 wide receiver Bryson Vowell out of Anderson County High School in Clinton, Tenn. The Hawkeyes represent Vowell’s first power-five offer and second overall.

The 6-foot-4, 185 pound wide receiver also holds an offer from Memphis according to 247Sports. He’s also drawing interest from Arkansas, East Tennessee State, Eastern Kentucky, Middle Tennessee State, UT Martin and Western Carolina.

Vowell’s recruitment is just beginning to heat up with his two offers this week from Iowa and Memphis. According to HawkeyeReport editor Blair Sanderson, Vowell racked up 714 receiving yards and 13 touchdowns as a junior with Anderson County High School last season. Sanderson also caught up with Vowell to discuss how he was offered by Iowa wide receivers coach Kelton Copeland and his thoughts on the Hawkeyes.

“Coach Copeland and I have been talking for the past two weeks and then he texted me and said he’s going come to my school to watch me practice. Then about halfway through our practice, he offered me on the spot. I’ve always been a fan of Iowa and the tradition of The Wave. Iowa is for sure an early leader for me right now. I’m very excited to get on campus,” Vowell said – Sanderson, HawkeyeReport.

As Vowell’s only power-five offer, it makes sense why Iowa is an early favorite for the wide receiver and why he is working to get on campus in the near future.

According to 247Sports, Vowell is the 10th wide receiver Iowa has offered in the 2023 cycle. Vowell joins Jalen Brown, Carnell Tate, Malik Elzy, Joshua Manning, Andre Davis, Kai Black, Frederick Moore, Ricky Ahumaraeze and Chase Hendricks.
