As college football recruiting continues to run its course throughout the summer, Iowa football finds itself among the top 12 schools for elite 2027 tight end prospect Luke Brewer.

While the highly-touted tight end prospect has not taken any official campus visits just yet, he has taken numerous unofficial visits, including eight stops in Iowa City, with the most recent visit occurring on March 8. On Thursday, Brewer announced his tentative top 12 list of destinations on his social media platforms that included Missouri, Iowa State, Georgia, Tennessee, Michigan, Oregon, Penn State, Miami, Notre Dame, Iowa, Texas A&M, and Florida.

2027 Four-Star Recruit Puts Florida in Top 12
2027 Four-Star Recruit Puts Florida in Top 12 originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The University of Florida football program has long been recognized for its ability to produce top NFL talent at nearly every position group. In recent history, the tight end position has seen notable success, exemplified by Kyle Pitts being selected by the Atlanta Falcons with the No. 4 overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft after an illustrious career with the Gators. Advertisement Florida is now looking for its next Pitts-esque recruit to lock down the tight end position for the future. Head coach Billy Napier and company hope they found it with Norwalk, Iowa's Luke Brewer. Brewer, who is a consensus four-star in the 2027 class, took to social media Thursday to announce he has narrowed down his recruitment to his top 12 teams, which includes Florida. "At this time my recruitment is still 100 percent open," Brewer said on X/Twitter. "But with that being said I have came out with this list based on feel, fit and the effort put in to making these talks with coaches! Not saying this is set in stone but as of right now let's roll." Norwalk High School tight end Luke BrewerEliot Clough The Norwalk High School product has turned heads due to his size and athletic ability. Standing at 6-foot-4.5 and weighing 228 pounds, Brewer has the makeup of an SEC tight end. He is ranked No. 4 among all recruits from the state of Iowa for the 2027 class and is the 17th-ranked tight end in the country in the 247Sports Composite rankings. Advertisement Along with the Gators, Brewer included SEC rivals Georgia, Tennessee and Texas A&M and national powerhouses like Notre Dame and Oregon in his top 12. However, the team Florida may have to watch out for the most on the recruiting trail is Iowa, which is known for its talent at the tight end position. The Hawkeyes, affectionately named "Tight End U," have had many greats at the position, including Dallas Clark, T.J. Hockenson and Noah Fant. While Iowa may have the upper hand in the recruiting battle for Brewer based on history and location, Napier and Florida will certainly make a run at the top tight end target.
