Iowa State junior Caleb Bacon says new linebackers coach Colby Kratch has brought a new mentality to the group. The former Cyclone graduate assistant spent last season at North Texas before rejoining the ISU staff.
Bacon is a former walk-on who earned a scholarship after appearing in all 13 games last season and finishing second in tackles. He feels more confident this fall camp.
As one of the older linebackers Bacon is expected to take on more of a leadership role this season.
The Cyclones open August 31st at home against North Dakota
