Iowa State needed guys that can play right away and to fill some open spots due to coaching change and current transfer landscape. T.J. Otzelberger got both of those with Minnesota transfer Gabe Kalscheur announcing his commitment to Iowa State this morning.
Kalscheur was regarded as one of Minnesota’s top defenders over the last three seasons. As an All Big Ten level defender, Kalscheur also scored 11.6 points per game as a sophomore and 9.2 points last season. He’s a career 34 percent shooter from deep, which is something Iowa State could also use in volume.
