Summary
The Jimmy Rogers era at Iowa State is finally here, but before the Cyclones kick off a new chapter, Chris Williams takes you inside one of the most emotional nights of his journalism career. CW opens up about the night Matt Campbell announced he was leaving Iowa State after the most successful decade in program history. He explains why he became emotional, the relationships he had developed throughout the Campbell era, the impact of the transfer portal, and why that night was so difficult for him personally. Chris then turns the page toward Jimmy Rogers and the future of Iowa State football. He discusses Rogers' personality, the new coaching staff, offensive coordinator Tyler Roehl, and why he's buying into the identity Rogers is bringing to Ames. What should Iowa State fans consider a successful first season? Chris explains why the record may matter less than seeing consistent improvement, competitiveness, and a team that looks capable of beating anyone in the Big 12 by November.
