Jimmy Rogers Follows Iowa State's Greatest Football Era and Seeks to Avoid Return to Bad Old Days
- Iowa State is starting over under head coach Jimmy Rogers after Matt Campbell left for Penn State, taking 24 players with him following the program's best 10-year period in school history.
- Campbell went 72-55 and led the Cyclones to Big 12 championship games in 2020 and 2024, yet fans fear a return to the program's historical struggles, including a title drought since 1912.
- The roster features 82 newcomers—the most in the Football Bowl Subdivision—with no returning starters; Las Vegas set the over-under for Iowa State wins at 4.5.
- Running back Aiden Flora acknowledged initial apprehension about the coaching change, yet the team is building internal chemistry and "our connection is unbelievable right now," Flora said.
- Signed to a six-year, $3 million contract, Rogers says the Cyclones are further along than his Washington State team was, with players "believing in themselves when nobody else in the country does.
