What is it about the Iowa coaches that drew you to them?
Cameron Wilson: I love Coach (Erik) Campbell, the receivers coach. He's just real easy to talk to and it seems like he knows a lot about the game. Coach (Kirk) Ferentz is a real family guy. He tries to stress the importance of family in a football team and program. I really like this aspects.

What do you feel your strengths are as a wide receiver?
Cameron Wilson: I think I'm just a play maker. I make plays a lot. Sometimes I make plays off the ball like blocking. I do whatever I can to help out the team; kick returning, punt returning. I just make a lot of plays from a lot of different spots on the field.
Would it be tough to classify you as a specific type of wide receiver?
Cameron Wilson: I think that I'm elusive as a runner with the ball. I run good routes. I can be a possession receiver, too. At the same time, I can get yards after the catch. So, I don't know if I can classify myself as a speed guy or something else.
What type of 40 do you run?
Cameron Wilson: I run a 4.5.

How much did Coach Campbell's history with coaching top receivers play into your decision?
Cameron Wilson: It just speaks a lot to him as a coach. Obviously, I respected him more knowing the guys he's coached.
Did you follow Iowa at all growing up?

Did you grow up a fan of any college?
Cameron Wilson: I always liked Ohio State. That's just because I'm an Ohio kid.
Did you talk to them much during the recruiting process?
Cameron Wilson: Yeah, they recruited me a little bit. Coach (Luke) Fickell has been through my school a couple of times. I didn't talk to him much. They didn't offer me.
Do you think about what it's going to be like to play at Ohio Stadium as an opposing player?
