Ames, Iowa — Hunter Dekkers is ready to take over as Iowa State’s starting quarterback.
The former West Sioux standout appeared in seven games the past two years behind starter Brock Purdy. It is a spot Purdy has manned since October of 2018.
That’s Cyclone offensive coordinator Tom Manning who says Dekkers’ arm strength is obvious but now it is about running the offense.
Dekkers says the goal this spring is to move the offense forward.
Dekkers says the offense received a big lift when top receiver Xavier Hutchinson decided to return for next season.
