Cool roomie for ISU's Bowen | GazetteOnline.com - Cedar Rapids, Iowa City

Pretty interesting that his little brother moved to iowa this year and is living with him. Should help give him alot more responsibility.

GREAT Article !

Alvin "Ace" Bowen is a class act from everything I have heard and read. Really a big fan of his and they way he's turned Iowa State in a positive for him on and off the field. Hard work and dedication came a long ways.

Here is my grass roots effort to show my support for him and the Cyclone Defense this year... if interested in helping out Cyclone fans !

I found a site where I was able to purchase 52 card decks of all aces and will be giving away as many as I can but if we could spread the word and get 40,000 aces to the game that would be great... ACE ! spread the word Cyclones- bring your "pocket aces"

Thanks

If he is caring and providing for his brother then why isn't he getting the support of the media and NCAA like Ray Ray McElrathbey did a year ago this time? I believe that the university needs to ask the NCAA for the same stipend that Ray Ray is receiving. This is obviously news to me; I had no idea that his little brother was living with him. It's people like Ace that I have the utmost respect for...college, football and caring for a 12 year old boy! WOW, mad props to you Ace.
