Kingston Fotualii brings size, pedigree, and early depth-chart traction to Iowa State
Freshman Kingston Fotualii is a 6-foot-3, 295-pound interior lineman who arrived at Iowa State as a three-star recruit and a two-time team captain at O’Dea, where he helped power a 13-0 state title run as a junior and a 12-1 championship-game season as a senior[5][11]. He’s already showing up on the 2026 depth chart at right guard, which suggests the Cyclones see real plug-and-play upside in his physicality and reliability[3][8]. Why care? He looks like the kind of tough, coachable blocker who can grow into a dependable Big 12 piece if his technique catches up to his frame[5][11].
