Jirehl Brock arrived at Iowa State as a four-star recruit ranked as the nation's 11th-best running back prospect, and for three seasons he waited his turn behind Breece Hall. Such patience is rare nowadays with the transfer portal readily available to any player looking to bolt to another school where he can get on the field sooner.(AP Photo/Charlie Neibergall, Fo;e)

FILE - In this Aug. 2, 2019, file photo, Iowa State coach Matt Campbell gestures during an NCAA college football practice, in Ames, Iowa. The Cyclones were ranked in the preseason poll for the first time in 41 years behind a punishing defense, a young quarterback who seems destined for stardom and a coach who always seems to push the right buttons. And yet, the enthusiasm of Iowa State’s supporters might give way to a tiny bit of pause when they see Northern Iowa _ the Cyclones’ longtime FCS nemesis _ scheduled for Saturday’s opener.
