RECRUITING: Cyclones pick up commitment from Ohio O-lineman

Matt Campbell and his program have officially picked up commitments on back to back Saturdays. After three-star offensive tackle Colin Newell committed last week, Johnstown, Ohio offensive lineman Jeff Nogaj has made his pledge to the Cyclones, per a source.

Nogaj appears to be a guy that has flown under the radar so far but the Iowa State coaches fell in love with him after seeing him in camp last year. At 6-foot-4-inches, 324 pounds and a 6-foot-7-inch wingspan he definitely has the frame for college football.
