Each day leading up to Iowa State’s season opener against South Dakota State, Cyclone Fanatic will check another day off the calendar with a memorable statistic, player or game as part of our Countdown to Kickoff presented by Tailgate Clothing.
Iowa State’s defensive backs room is stacked with young talent, but one name fans should definitely know going into the 2018 season is Datrone Young.
Young, a redshirt freshman who wears No. 25 for the cardinal and gold, is listed alongside Richard Bowens as the No. 2 guy at right corner behind D’Andre Payne on the Cyclones’ most recent depth chart.
Nicknamed “Speedy,” Young was a three-star recruit out of Delray Beach, Fla. and chose the Cyclones over offers from Wisconsin, Rutgers and South Florida.
He was a three-time All-Palm Beach County honoree and was rated as the No. 105 cornerback in the 2017 recruiting class. While Young may not have been the most highly-rated player in the Cyclones’ 2017 signing class, there is no doubt he’s made a name for himself inside the program since arriving in Ames.
