Missouri City, Texas, safety Jameel Cook Jr. announced on Twitter that he has committed to IU.
The 247Sports 3-star defensive back joins Virginia athlete Mike Majette as the second recruit to flip from Maryland to IU. Cook is the third safety and 22nd commit to the 2015 class.
Cook was on an official visit in Bloomington this past weekend. He previously committed to Maryland last June.
The 6-foot-1, 181-pound player is the son of Jameel Cook Sr., who played fullback for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The elder Cook was a part of the Buccaneers team that won Super Bowl 38.
Cook is expected to join the other IU commits in officially signing with the Hoosiers on Wednesday’s National Signing Day.
