Iglesias signed with the Sooners out of Killeen, TX (Killeen) with the 2006 recruiting class. In his four seasons in Norman, Iglesias totaled 202 receptions for 2,861 yards and 19 touchdowns. He finished his college career 4th on the school's all-time receptions list as he proved to be a pivitol part of the Sooner offense over his career.

Iglesias was one of the team's most dynamic weapons during his time in Norman as he led the Sooners to three straight Big 12 championship titles. Iglesias was selected by the Chicago Bears in the 3rd round of the 2009 NFL draft where he unfortunately had a quick career. Although his pro career proved to be irrevelant, that does not take away from his massive impact on the Sooners offense over his 4 years in Norman.
