ISU football: Fullback position could be in Lanning's future

AMES -- Former Iowa State quarterback and linebacker Joel Lanning might not be done changing positions.

At Iowa State’s Pro Day on Tuesday at the Bergstrom Football Complex, Lanning lined up as a fullback during the receiving drills, ran routes out of the backfield and caught passes.

“I wasn’t expecting it really,” Lanning said. “When (the scout) asked me, I said, ‘Why not?’ I went out and did pretty good at it. Not working on it, I obviously don’t know the depth of routes or things like that. But he said I looked pretty good, so I’ll take it.
