Less than two days after he received a scholarship offer from Iowa, Gaither’s Justin Lattimore told the Hawkeyes he will play for them next year.

The Gaither senior tight end chose Iowa over several other Division I schools that had offered scholarships, including Florida Atlantic, Ball State and Middle Tennessee State. Florida, Florida State and Georgia were also interested in him.

“They seem to air it out a lot and use the tigtht ends a lot,” Lattimore said. “It seems like the perfect offense for me.”

Lattimore, who also plays defensive end, has been a big reason the Cowboys have had success the past several seasons. He leads the team in receiving this year.
