In the spring, linebackers Kane Seeley and Willie Harvey separated themselves from the rest of the position group. Their instincts, athleticism and playmaking ability stood out to the coaching staff.
When the Cyclones head to camp on Thursday the question is can any other linebackers follow their lead?
This is a position of concern from new coach Matt Campbell. He said as much during the spring. The depth didn’t show in March and April practices.
