Stevie Hicks was Iowa State’s workhorse back before his tragic passing
Stevie Hicks was a sturdy, downhill RB for Iowa State who led the Cyclones in rushing in each of his four seasons and finished with 2,601 career rushing yards and 11 rushing touchdowns in the 2003-2006 seasons.[1][3][14] In 2004, he posted his best single-season output with 1,062 rushing yards, and in the 2005 season he was an AP honorable mention All-Big 12 pick, reflecting a runner trusted to carry volume and tough yards.[3][4][14] If you’re evaluating fit, think reliable between-the-tackles production and proven durability over flash; the catch is that Hicks is no longer an active player, as Iowa State announced his death in 2008.[10]
