Iowa State graduated all of its contributors at the safety spot from 2017. It’s one position group that has a few question marks, but also a lot of young talent that is ready to explode this season.
No name is bigger than starting strong safety Greg Eisworth. The transfer from Ole Miss by way of Trinity Valley CC has three years to play for the Cyclones, and was a heralded 4-star recruit coming out of high school. This staff has been raving about Eisworth’s play in training camp, and he has some big shoes to fill, replacing 1st Team All-Big 12 selection Kamari Cotton-Moya.
