Taylor Bell of the Chicago Sun-Times reports that Johnsburg, Ill., tight end C.J. Fiedorowicz has changed his commitment from Illinois to the University of Iowa.
Here's a link to the story.
"I wasn't happy with what is going on at Illinois," Fiedorowicz told the Sun-Times. "I like all the coaches at Iowa. They will be staying around for a long time. I went to the Iowa/Minnesota game last weekend and the atmosphere was so much better than at Illinois. Now I feel good about my decision."
Fiedorowicz (Fedora-witz) committed to Illinois during the summer. He visited Iowa for the Minnesota game.
For Johnsburg this year, the 6-foot-7, 245-pounder, caught 44 passes for 921 yards and 15 touchdowns in a 8-4 season. He caught 44 touchdown passes in his career, one short of the state record. He was offered basketball scholarships by Wisconsin and Indiana.
This gives Iowa 20 commitments. Signing day is Feb. 3.
