He showed a lot of promise as a freshman, and flashed some big play ability. His sophomore and junior seasons were more consistent, but the big plays were rare. He would have been drafted much higher if he left after his Junior season, but that was the weird 2020 Covid year, and ISU had a veteran team retuning for 2021.

He decided to return to school for his senior season to both improve his draft stock and play for a Big 12 championship. ISU was a preseason top 10 team. Both he and the team had disappointing seasons. He wasn’t bad his senior season, but I think the team’s failures combined with his lack of development as a four year starter caused his draft stock to plummet.
