Iowa City, Iowa— The Hawkeye women’s basketball team received a significant commitment from Villanova point guard Lucy Olsen. That type of skill coming into Iowa can help them advance to the NCAA Tournament’s second weekend. Olsen’s inclusion alongside Hannah Stuelke, Sydney Affolter, and a slew of other players was astute roster management. After a busy recruiting weekend, let’s go into what my sources are telling me.
Sharpe will be in Iowa City on Tuesday, April 23, and the Hawkeyes hope to bring him into the fold. Sharpe, who is listed at 5-foot-9 and 172 pounds, has two years of eligibility left. Last fall at Missouri State, he recorded 73 receptions for 991 yards and seven touchdowns.
Sharpe, who played football and track at Houston before transferring to Missouri State, was named an FCS All-American last season. The 5-foot-9, 170-pound Texas native was third in the FCS with an average of 99.1 receiving yards per game.
In what CBS Sports analyst Ryan Wilson calls his “what teams should do” 2024 NFL Mock Draft first round, he anticipates significant quarterback movement on Thursday night, as numerous franchises with early picks will surely seek a new saviour at the position.
The remainder of the first round is littered with offensive linemen, edge rushers, and pass-catching targets, with no running back or safety projected to be picked early on. According to recent projections, Chicago is on the clock with the No. 1 overall choice, and the Bears have their sights set on Caleb Williams of USC. The trend of signal callers will continue after that, with Washington and New England anticipated to take that path with their initial picks, among others.
