According to a press release issued by Iowa State on Wednesday afternoon, sophomore running back Martinez Syria has been dismissed from the football team for violating team policies. 

Syria had 20 carries for 47 yards in five games as a true freshman in 2014. 

Syria was listed as Iowa State’s third-string running back in the spring. 

It’s a position group for Rhoads that lacks any sort of experience at all – especially now. Sophomore Tyler Brown and redshirt freshman Mike Warren will compete for the starting spot in fall camp and now, the door is wide open for true freshmen Joshua Thomas and Sheldon Croney to play as well.

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.
