SURPRISE: Three-star running back picks Cyclones

National Signing Day is in full swing and Iowa State just picked up their third surprise commitment of the morning. Three-star running back prospect David Montgomery announced his commitment to the Cyclones Wednesday morning in a ceremony at his school. 

Montgomery is rated as a three-star prospect by 247 and the No. 73 running back in the class. He had only one other Division I offer from Miami (OH) but had received some interest from Cincinnati.
