Expectations for Iowa State already were low when the calendar turned from July to August. The Cyclones, who are 11-14 overall and 6-12 in league play since making the conference championship game in 2020, are picked 10th out of 14 teams in the newly expanded Big 12. Dekkers, offensive lineman Jacob Remsburg, tight end DeShawn Hanika and defensive lineman Isaiah Lee have pleaded not guilty to charges of tampering with records in connection with the gambling investigation.
