FB: Former New Hampshire WR lands at ISU

 A speedy former Pennsylvanian has joined the Iowa State football team.

 Former Harrisburg (Pa.) prep Amechie Walker Jr., announced on Twitter that he’d become part of Matt Campbell’s Cyclone program.

 Walker totaled 25 catches for 268 yards and two touchdowns for the Wildcats as a freshman last season. He’ll be a walk-on at ISU, while trying to carve out a niche among a talented receiving corp headlined by Allen Lazard. Walker (5-9, 170) was considered a three-star prospect when coming out of high school.
