AMES, Iowa – Iowa State head football coach Matt Campbell announced last Friday changes to his football staff which includes a promotion from a long-time staffer, a familiar name returning to the sidelines and a couple of alterations in position group assignments.

Taylor Mouser, who has been on staff since the beginning of the Campbell era, will move into an assistant coaching role taking over leadership of the tight end unit. The move will allow offensive coordinator Tom Manning, who mentored the tight ends in 2020, the opportunity to work solely as the director of the offense.

Campbell also announced that Jake Waters, who was a graduate assistant for the Cyclones in 2017, will rejoin the staff as a quality control assistant for the offense and wide receivers coach Nate Scheelhaase will also be the running game coordinator along with mentoring the running backs, duties previously held by Mick McCall, whose contract was not renewed.

The promotion of Mouser and addition of Waters are pending successful background checks.

Mouser has worn many hats in his five years as a member of the Iowa State football coaching staff.

Starting out as a graduate assistant, Mouser worked in the scouting department and then moved into a role as senior quality control for the Cyclone offense in 2019.

Mouser’s outstanding work behind the scenes earned him the promotion.

“Taylor has been a valuable member of our staff since we arrived five years ago,” Campbell said. “He’s built a positive rapport with our players and his work serving as a quality control assistant with our offense has been very beneficial to our success. Taylor will fit right in and continue to help our program make greater strides.”

In the last two seasons, Iowa State has produced two of the most prolific offenses in the history of Cyclone football. Iowa State broke the school record for total offense (444.3) and had the third-best scoring offense (32.2) in school history in 2019, and followed it up with the second-best scoring offense (32.9) and third-best total offense (436.3) totals in Cyclone history in 2020.

Mouser has assisted a number of All-Americans and All-Big 12 performers to unprecedented success working with the offense. Running back Breece Hall, who led the nation in rushing in 2020, became the first unanimous All-American in school history, tight end Charlie Kolar, ISU’s first two-time All-American in 25 years, and quarterback Brock Purdy, who owns or shares 25 school records as the Cyclone signal-caller, all have benefited from Mouser’s expertise.

The Cyclones have also set the following school records in the last two seasons with Mouser aiding the offense: touchdowns (53, 2019), points (418, 2019), yards per play (6.45, 2019) and rushing touchdowns (31, 2020).

In all, Mouser has played a huge role in Iowa State’s resurgence nationally since joining the staff prior to the 2016 season. The Cyclones have qualified for four-straight bowl games, annually appeared in the national rankings, won 32 games and totaled four of ISU’s five above-.500 conference seasons in the history of the Big 12 Conference (1996-present) since 2017.

A native of Chandler, Arizona, Mouser earned his bachelor’s degree at Adams State in 2013. He was a graduate assistant for Campbell at Toledo during the 2015 campaign.

Waters returns to Ames after a three-year stint at UTEP (2018-20) as an assistant coach on Dana Dimel’s staff. Waters worked with the tight ends, fullbacks and wide receivers during his time with the Miners.

“We feel Jake is one of the best young coaches in the nation,” Campbell said. “We witnessed his talents when he was a graduate assistant with us and he gained three more years of experience as an assistant coach at UTEP. Bringing Jake back will be a huge plus for our program.”

Waters’ initial coaching experience at the FBS level was in 2017 when Campbell hired him as a graduate assistant for the offense. The Cyclones thrived that season, tying a school-record with three wins over ranked opponents (Oklahoma, TCU, Memphis) and finishing the year with an 8-5 record and a victory in the Liberty Bowl.

Waters was a volunteer quarterbacks coach at Iowa Western Community College for two seasons (2015-16) prior to his first stint at Iowa State.

A native of Council Bluffs, Iowa, Waters had an outstanding two-year career as the quarterback at Kansas State (2013-14), compiling a 17-9 record as a starter. He was All-Big 12 Second Team in 2014, breaking school career records for completion percentage and passing efficiency.

A 2014 graduate of Kansas State, Waters prepped at St. Albert High School in Council Bluffs, leading the Falcons to a pair of Class 1A state titles and was a three-time all-state selection

IOWA CITY, Iowa — University of Iowa junior Monika Czinano and freshman Caitlin Clark were named Big Ten Women’s Basketball Player and Freshman of the Week, respectively, the conference announced Monday.

The Big Ten Player of the Week nod is the first for Czinano. Clark has been named Freshman of the Week eight times this season and has tallied 13 Big Ten Weekly honors on the year, including the eight freshman honors, three Big Ten Player of the Week honors, and two Player of the Week Honor Roll nods.

In a pair of games against No. 23/23 Northwestern and Minnesota, Czinano averaged 28.5 points, eight rebounds, and shot 28-of-33 (.848) from the field. Czinano recorded her second double-double this season, scoring a career-high 34 points and pulling down 11 rebounds.

The Watertown, Minnesota, native made 15-consecutive buckets — a believed Big Ten single-game record. Czinano made her final three shots in Iowa’s previous game against Purdue (Jan. 18), making her streak 18-consecutive makes — another believed Big Ten record.

Czinano is current ranked first in the country in field goal percentage (70.1), outshining the next best by nearly six percent. Ranked second is UConn’s Olivia Nelson-Ododa (64.2) and sitting in third is Michigan’s Naz Hillmon (63.6).

Clark averaged 22.5 points and 9.5 assists in the two games last week, recording her fifth double-double of the season with 22 points and 11 assists against the Gophers. She posted 23 points and eight assists against the Wildcats.

The West Des Moines, Iowa, native broke onto the Iowa freshmen all-time scoring list 1:20 into the first quarter of the Iowa at Minnesota matchup and now ranks seventh, tallying 254 points on the season and passing former Hawkeye Megan Gustafson (252).

The Hawkeyes head to Columbus, Ohio, to take on the Buckeyes inside Value City Arena on Thursday, Feb. 4. Tip-off is set for 5 p.m. (CT) on Big Ten Network.

IRVING, Texas – Iowa State women’s basketball guard Kylie Feuerbach picked up her first Freshman of the Week award, the league announced Monday.

Feuerbach was exceptional in Sunday’s contest against the ninth-ranked Lady Bears, she tallied 15 points for her fourth double-figure outing of the season. Feuerbach went 2-of-5 from long range and added three rebounds and three steals against Baylor. Feuerbach was also 5-of-6 from the charity stripe. She also added four rebounds and two assists in a win at Kansas State.

The honor was the fifth Freshman of the Week honor for the Cyclones this season, as fellow freshmen Emily Ryan and Lexi Donarski have also nabbed two apiece.

Iowa State returns to the court on Wednesday, Feb. 3 at 6 p.m. to take on West Virginia on Big 12 Now on ESPN+.
