Although it's a light weekend for official visitors, Iowa State will be hosting some prospects on game day that make this a big recruiting weekend nonetheless. Here's a list of the official and unofficial visitors for the upcoming weekend. And obviously this list is subject to revisions between now and then as Paul and I get more information.
Official Visitor:
Carson Schleker, WR, 5-9, 180, Allen (Texas) HS - committed
A majority of the 2018 commits will be visiting in early December, but that's not the case for Schleker who will be the one official visitor of the weekend. One of two known wide receiver commitments, he is a three-star prospect who originally chose the Cyclones over P5 offers from Arizona, Illinois, Kansas, Louisville, Minnesota, Utah, Washington State, West Virginia and Wisconsin. At last report, Schleker was off to a slow start to his senior season, but that was more of a product in how defenses were accounting for him.
Game-Day Visitors:
MJ Anderson, LB, 6-4, 240, St. Louis (Mo.) Christian Brothers - Class of 2019
Anderson said on twitter Thursday evening that he plans to unofficially visit Iowa State this weekend. He claims Power 5 offers from the Cyclones, Purdue and South Carolina.
TJ Bollers, DE, 6-4, 205, Tiffin (Iowa) Clear Creek Amana HS - Class of 2021
This will likely be a tough pull for the Cyclones, as Bollers is an Iowa legacy recruit with already a ton of familiarity with the program in Iowa City. But there's still plenty of time for CMC and his staff to make a good impression. The freshman took a game-day visit to Iowa a month ago and will now experience a game at Jack Trice Stadium. In addition to ISU and Iowa, he has early interest from Michigan and Stanford.
Blake Peterson, DE, 6-4, 235, Beresford (S.D.) HS - Class of 2019
This junior prospect already has had a lot of exposure with Iowa State's program. This will be the fifth unofficial visit for Peterson since he began his recruiting process, with the most recent one coming on ISU's first day of fall camp. He has P5 offers from Iowa State and Minnesota, as well as ones from South Dakota and South Dakota State.
Derrick Miller, ATH, 5-11, 160, O'Fallon (Mo.) John Burroughs HS - Class of 2019
So far it's ISU and Iowa as the lone P5 offers for a top-10 junior prospect in the state of Missouri. Miller picked up his offer from the Cyclones this summer after an in-school evaluation from assistant coach D.K. McDonald. Listed as an athlete in the Rivals database, Miller would likely be targeted to play defense in Ames. He took a game-day visit to Iowa earlier this season and will now get his turn for ISU's contest against TCU.
Cole Mabry, OLB, 6-2, 190, Iowa City (Iowa) West HS - Class of 2019
This will be the second game-day visit of the season for a prospect the Cyclones offered during the month of September. His first trip to Ames was chronicled last month on CycloneReport.com. In addition to Mabry's I-State offer, he has early interest from Iowa and Nebraska, and took a game-day visit to Iowa City this fall. The junior is a standout for one of the top Class 4A programs in the state, and his team will host Cedar Rapids Washington on Friday night.
Jake Remsburg, OL, 6-6, 285, West Des Moines (Iowa) Valley HS - Class of 2019
The Cyclones were first in the door for this junior big man when the coaching staff offered a scholarship earlier this month. Remsburg, who comes from the same high school program that produced ISU senior offensive tackle Jake Campos, also has early interest from Iowa and Kansas. Remsburg took a game-day visit to Iowa last month and will now get his first 2017 glimpse of ISU.
Marcus Fuqua, S, 6-1, 190, Southfield (Mich.) HS - Class of 2019
Had a lot of offers from MAC schools, but picked up a big one with an Iowa State offer last month. Fuqua has a lot of interest in the Cyclones and was the one who had initiated contact. Also has Power-5 offer from Syracuse, to go along with G5 programs Akron, Army, Ball State, Buffalo, Kent State, Northern Illinois, Temple, Toledo and Western Michigan. This will be Fuqua's first visit of any kind to ISU.
Kyvin Carroll, LB, 6-0, 205, Jacksonville (Ark.) Benton HS - Class of 2019
Only has a DII offer showing so far in Rivals database.
Kyle Helbig, TE, 6-3, 215. Bloomfield (Colo.) Holy Family
