Football: JUCO transfers eye immediate impact for ISU defense

Jarnor Jones will sometimes look around when he’s lined up in Iowa State’s defense. He sees his teammates, of course, but there’s more to it, he said. In those moments, Jones smiles, because he knows he’s not alone.

He sees guys he can relate to. He sees teammates who have similar yet slightly different journeys to Ames. He sees his brothers, a group of men who believe, deep down, that they can accomplish something special this season.

“You know you can look to your left or your right and see someone who also came from a junior college,” Jones said.
