long, physical Iowa State DB with classic Cyclone toughness
In the 2000-2002 Iowa State rosters, Sam Holden was a 6-foot-3, 194-201-pound defensive back from West Delaware, giving the Cyclones a rangy, bigger-bodied presence in the secondary.[1][4][6] The available team records don’t show stat production, but his profile screams length, run-support potential, and matchup flexibility—a good fit for a defense that wants size and physicality on the back end.[1][4][6]
