Spotlight on the Cyclone Stars
The group includes quarterback Jaylen Raynor, running back Aiden Flora, defensive back David Coffey, defensive end Isaac Terrell, and kicker Kyle Konrardy. Each brings a distinct skill set that has helped shape the team’s recent performance.
Raynor, a senior transfer from Arkansas State, arrives after a junior season in which he completed 66 percent of his passes for 3,361 yards and 19 touchdowns. His experience and poise under center have made him a focal point of the Cyclones’ offense.
Flora, who earned a 2025 All‑Big 12 Second Team nod, led the league with a 26.1‑yard punt return average. His agility and vision have added a dynamic element to Iowa State’s special teams.
Coffey, though limited to nine games last season with just one start, contributed 11 tackles and two pass breakups, showcasing his potential on the defensive side of the ball.
Terrell, a Pac‑12 Top Defensive Line Performer, posted 28 tackles, 12 for loss, and seven sacks, underscoring his disruptive presence along the line.
Konrardy, a 2025 All‑Big 12 Honorable Mention, went 14‑of‑18 on field‑goal attempts, highlighted by a 63‑yard kick that captured attention across the conference.
Media Days will run from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. CT each day, with live coverage on ESPNU and a simulcast on Big 12 Studios, giving fans nationwide a front‑row seat to the Cyclones’ preparations.
