Ramos joins Creston offensive lineman Trevor Downing and Dowling, West Des Moines offensive lineman Zach Ross as additions to Iowa State’s front five in this class. He is the program’s 19th commit overall.

He is expected to sign in the early signing period. Stay tuned to Cyclone Fanatic for more on this story.
