Re: Four Cyclones named 2nd team All-Big 12
Here are Iowa State's honorable mentions.
Iowa State: Kirby Van Der Kamp, P & Def. Fr. of the Yr.; A.J. Klein, LB; Jake Knott, Def. Ply. of the Yr.; Jake Lattimer, DL; Kelechi Osemele, OL; Paul Rhoads, Coach of the Yr.; David Sims, DB
Re: Four Cyclones named 2nd team All-Big 12
I thought Vanderkamp would do a lot better than that.
Re: Four Cyclones named 2nd team All-Big 12
I'm shocked to see Leonard Johnson a 2nd team player after we heard about how bad he was early this year. And how the other CB's were better! :jimlad:

He is basically the 3rd punter in conference, and really should have got 2nd team over Henrey since he is really more of a kicker, and got a vote as Def Frosh of the Year. Pretty good for a true freshman punter.
Re: Four Cyclones named 2nd team All-Big 12
There's no excuse for Knott not being a first teamer and Klein not being a second teamer.

This. I am absolutely shocked that Knott didn't make 1st team. There wasn't a better LB'er in the conference but he did play for Iowa State, so I guess that is the explanation right there. :sad:
Re: Four Cyclones named 2nd team All-Big 12
Okie State sure underperformed Saturday night with all that talent.....just goes to show that team chemistry is also important.

It was a joke. I was mocking people like you who actually think Reeves is better than LJ. It's not even close. LJ had a great year this year.

I thought LJ played poorly in the first half, but definitely stepped it up throughout the season. He was close to shutdown in the final 3 games.

Which for a CB shows that you are getting more opportunities and being picked on.
LJ was pretty much awesome throughout Big 12 play
