Dallas WR Salters decides on the Cyclones

After days of speculation and multiple Internet reports, it now seems official that Dallas Jesuit "athlete" Orion Salters has verbally committed to Iowa State. That’s what a source told Cyclone Fanatic on Tuesday evening at least. 

Salters, who Rivals.com lists at 5-foot-10,165-pounds, played high school ball with current Iowa State defensive end J.D. Waggoner, who signed with the Cyclones in February. 

Salters is listed as an "athlete," but we’re already hearing that the plan is for him to at least begin at wide receiver in Ames. 

Salters is the eighth known commitment to Iowa State at this time.

Chris Williams

Chris was hired as Cyclone Fanatic’s publisher in the fall of 2009. He is Iowa State football's postgame show host on the Cyclone Radio Network and can be heard daily from 4-7 on Des Moines' top-rated sports station, 1460 KXnO. Williams, a 2007 graduate of Iowa State’s Greenlee School of Journalism, is the former publisher of the old CycloneNation.com (Scout.com). He has also written for the Des Moines Register, the Ames Tribune, CycloneReport.com and is the former sports director at KMA Radio. When Williams isn’t working, you can usually find him doing something outdoors with his wife Ashley, daughter Camryn, and Golden Retriever Dierks. He enjoys golfing, boating, country music, the Minnesota Vikings, Atlanta Braves and is passionate about any and all motor sports so finding Williams at a local dirt track is very common.
