Football: Cyclones land first 2018 commitment

It’s still early in the 2017 recruiting cycle, but Iowa State football got a jump start on 2018 recruiting.

Pickerington North Ohio lineman Alex Williams has committed to the Cyclones, according to his coach Tom Phillips.

“Alex Williams commits to Iowa State. Congrats to Alex and his family!!!” tweeted Phillips, whose post included a picture of Williams in an ISU jersey and an ISU football poster.

Williams confirmed his commitment to the Ames Tribune in a text message, saying he will play wherever coach Matt Campbell wants him on the offensive or defensive line. Williams is listed as 6-foot-5, 235 pounds on the 2015 Pickerington North football roster.
