Iowa State picked up its second wide receiver out of the transfer portal in East Carolina’s Chase Sowell, according to a report by ESPN’s Max Olson.

Sowell collected 678 yards on 34 catches as the Pirates second-leading wide receiver.

Iowa State beat out Ole Miss, Florida, Arizona State, TCU, Baylor, Kansas, Houston, Oklahoma State, SMU, Illinois, Virginia Tech and Wisconsin to land the wideout.

The Texas native will move to his third school, with two years of eligibility, after starting out at Colorado in 2022.

In Boulder, Sowell was part of Deion Sanders’ first season with the program and the ‘house cleaning’ that coach had in the following off-season.

Sowell will join former UCF wideout Xavier Townsend in Ames as the Cyclones targeted the pair of wideouts early in their first week in the portal.

It’s early in the cycle and the number of commitments skews things, but Iowa State currently has a top 10 ranking in the portal class ranks on 247 Sports.
