Last month, the Iowa Hawkeyes put out a key offer in the 2023 recruiting cycle. Fran McCaffery and his staff decided to offer 2023 prospect Owen Freeman.
After a great call with Coach McCaffrey I am blessed to announce that I have received an offer from the University of Iowa to play college basketball! #GoHawkeyes pic.twitter.com/Y3DahtAXZH

Freeman comes out of Bradley, Illinois and is largely unrated by the national scouting services. However, he is attracting some serious midwestern attention and is listed at 6-foot-9 and 220 pounds by 247Sports. Along with Iowa, he also has offers from Butler, Illinois, Indiana, Marquette, Michigan State, Ohio State, Purdue, and Wisconsin among others.
Iowa currently has no commitments in the program’s 2023 recruiting class, but that will likely change in the coming months. Fans will hope Freeman can be the first piece and continue Iowa’s recent momentum on the recruiting trail after solid success in 2021 and 2022. However, we will have to wait and see as it’s still very much in the air. He currently has no Crystal Ball selections on 247Sports.
