Football: ISU reportedly negotiating with Campbell, Warren calls him “laid back”

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — A smile slowly surfaced on Mike Warren’s face when asked about a report of Toledo coach Matt Campbell being in negotiations to become the next Iowa State football coach.

If it happens, it could mean very good news for Warren.

“That would be great,” Warren said after a 30-6 loss to West Virginia on Saturday. “That would mean I would probably get to keep my old running back coach (Louis Ayeni).”

Sports Illustrated reported as the game ended that ISU and Campbell are negotiating and a deal should be reached in the next 48 hours.
