Iowa Hawkeyes offer 2023 ATH Zach Lutmer, earn crystal ball prediction
Iowa extended an offer to class of 2023 athlete Zach Lutmer. The 6-foot-1, 190 pound athlete is an in-state product out of Central Lyon High School in Rock Rapids, Iowa.
According to 247Sports, Lutmer is a three-star recruit, the nation’s 147th athlete overall and the No. 17 player from the state of Iowa. Rivals and On3 both list Lutmer as a safety.
The offer from the Hawkeyes represents Lutmer’s first FBS offer according to 247Sports. He also holds offers from South Dakota and South Dakota State and has drawn interest from Iowa State and Minnesota.
Shortly after he received his offer, HawkeyeInsider’s Sean Bock of 247Sports submitted a crystal ball prediction for Lutmer to land with Iowa. HawkeyeReport’s Blair Sanderson and Tom Kakert each issued Rivals FutureCasts for Lutmer to choose Iowa as well.
Lutmer discussed his Hawkeye offer with Sanderson, noting he was surprised the offer came before a summer camp visit. Lutmer said he is “super interested in Iowa” and that the coaching staff feels he can play any of the Hawkeyes’ three safety positions.
Sanderson also touched on some of Lutmer’s statistical numbers from this past season at Central Lyon High School in his breakdown of the offer.
A versatile, multisport athlete, Lutmer finished his junior year with 1,016 yards passing, 1,246 yards rushing, and 30 touchdowns on offense and 46.5 tackles and four interceptions on defense, which is where he likely projects in college. – Sanderson, HawkeyeReport.
The Hawkeyes already have one secondary player committed in their 2023 class, defensive back John Nestor out of Marist High School in Chicago, Ill. Nestor committed to the Hawkeyes on April 4, but Iowa would surely love to add a pledge from Lutmer to pair with Nestor.
Here’s a look at Lutmer’s junior season Hudl highlights at Central Lyon High School.
