Good-Jones

Good-Jones (6'5/308) appeared in each of Iowa State’s 12 regular season games, but was ruled out for the Camping World Bowl loss to Notre Dame due to an undisclosed injury. An honorable mention all-Big 12 selection in 2017 and 2018, he was a first-team all-conference selection at tackle this season.

A bit of an about face, here, as Cyclones HC Matt Campbell had been expressing optimism that Good-Jones would be able to play back around Christmas. Looks like the redshirt senior was unable to make the final push for clearance. His absence on Saturday will snap an impressive streak of 49 consecutive starts. Josh Knipfel will slot in at left tackle with the 6-foot-5, 308-pound Good-Jones forced to sit out.

Good-Jones (6'5/308) has been limited the past couple weeks in practice, per Campbell, but it seems he will be ready to play this week. Campbell added that he expects Good-Jones to be a “full-go” against the Fighting Irish. This will be Good-Jones’ 50th career start for the Cyclones, assuming he does indeed play.
