Iowa State LB Carson Willich on learning a new scheme

Iowa State linebacker Carson Willich feels like he is starting over even though he stayed with the program. The redshirt senior from Missouri made three starts for the Cyclones last season and was one of the few veterans to stick with the program after new coach Jimmy Rodgers replaced Matt Campbell.

Willich on why he decided to stay at ISU.

Willich says staying allowed him to assume more of a leadership role on defense.

Willich is playing weakside linebacker in Iowa State’s new four man front.

Iowa State defensive coordinator Jesse Bobbit feels Willich will be a good fit in their new scheme.

Bobbit believes Willich will thrive in the new system.
