Cyclones new QB Jaylen Raynor shows how quickly he can win friends. Now can he win games?

AMES, Iowa (AP) — Jaylen Raynor has done everything he can to be a good teammate since he arrived at Iowa State in January, right down to learning the name of everyone on the roster in just a few days. He was voted a team captain after he established himself as a leader in the weight room, on the practice field and as an organizer of social activities intended to accelerate bonding on a team with 82 newcomers. The Cyclones will find out soon what the transfer quarterback from Arkansas State can do in a game. They open Saturday at home against Southeast Missouri State. “The way he talks to people, the way he truly wants to get to know you, wants to know the reason you play football, it’s crazy to see, especially in quarterbacks," said third-year running back Aiden Flora, one of the few returning contributors. "There may be egos here and there, but he doesn't have an ego whatsoever. He’s truly a down-to-earth really good guy and I love the kid.”
