3 B1G schools made his list. Illinois, Penn State, and Iowa all have a shot of landing his signature. The other 2 schools were from the ACC and SEC as Auburn and Virginia Tech also made his list.
We’ll see who Nourzad decides to go with for next season, but there’s a good chance he could be playing in the B1G in the fall of 2022.
Grant Bricker covers the B1G for Saturday Tradition. His previous stops include the Williamson Homepage and Nashville Post.
