Talkin’ with Tron: A take on Texas Tech

By Chris Williams, CycloneFanatic.com Publisher

Tron Smith from Wilson Toyota of Ames made his radio debut last Saturday. The big man knocked it out of the park. Tron is my co-host on the Cyclone Fanatic/Wilson Toyota of Ames pregame show on Des Moines’ Sports Station, 1460 KXNO. Tune in this week from 2-3 (also at kxno.com) as our guests will be former Cyclone Jack Whitver and Randy Peterson from the Des Moines Register.

And don’t forget that Tron and I will be handing out five FREE student tickets to the game right after we get off the air at the stage near the Jacobson Building courtesy of Wilson Toyota and CycloneFanatic.com.

Enjoy this video as Tron gives his take on the Northern Iowa win, and the Texas Tech Red Raiders.

Chris was hired as Cyclone Fanatic’s publisher in the fall of 2009. He is Iowa State football's postgame show host on the Cyclone Radio Network and can be heard daily from 4-7 on Des Moines' top-rated sports station, 1460 KXnO. Williams, a 2007 graduate of Iowa State’s Greenlee School of Journalism, is the former publisher of the old CycloneNation.com (Scout.com). He has also written for the Des Moines Register, the Ames Tribune, CycloneReport.com and is the former sports director at KMA Radio. When Williams isn’t working, you can usually find him doing something outdoors with his wife Ashley, daughter Camryn, and Golden Retriever Dierks. He enjoys golfing, boating, country music, the Minnesota Vikings, Atlanta Braves and is passionate about any and all motor sports so finding Williams at a local dirt track is very common.
