Decision time near for key in-stater
With a decision perhaps on tap for next week, the Iowa State coaching staff has made its final impressions on an in-state offensive lineman that's been number one on its board for a while.
Creston junior Trevor Downing took another unofficial visit to Ames in late April, and the 6-foot-4, 270-pound big man also had offensive coordinator and line coach Tom Manning at his school yesterday as he appears set to make a commitment next week.
ISU coaches have visited Downing twice during the spring evaluation period, with Manning making the trip to Creston yesterday.
The state’s second-ranked recruit for the Class of 2018, behind only West Des Moines Dowling Catholic’s John Waggoner, Downing also appears to have a set of parents that like what ISU brings to the table. Downing wants to pursue a career in Agricultural Business.
Downing is set to make two more unofficial visits to other programs before making a commitment.
In addition to ISU, Downing also has offers from Iowa, Kansas State, Minnesota and Missouri.
