Anthony Hawkins Transfer Spotlight | Iowa Hawkeyes Football News

Iowa’s football season is just five days away, and the countdown spotlight lands on jersey number five—featuring two players. We’ve already met one, but don’t sleep on Anthony Hawkins, the transfer from Villanova. At 6’3”, he’s a towering presence in the secondary, stepping in as a safety due to injury depth. Last year, he racked up 59 tackles, 2 interceptions, and 9 passes defended—proving his value at FCS level. A three-star recruit who flew under the radar early, Hawkins is now poised to be Iowa’s most relied-upon defensive newcomer in the Big Ten. With three FCS transfers joining the defense, he’s the one they’ll turn to first—and fans should watch closely as he takes the field for the Hawkeyes.
