Did he run track in high school? Events? Times? He flat out smoked those TCU punt return defenders.

100 - 10.61 prelim, 11.00 finals
200 - 21.95 prelim, 21.82 final
4x100 - 41.33 prelim, 41.90 final
4x200 - 1:25.55

I didn't know archer daniels midland had a track team
Just had to look up ADM. Am I wrong to think that it used to be “Adel DeSoto” without the “Minburn”?
Edit: Also, Flora’s HS times make sense given that return.

And they smell really bad too
Is anyone else thinking that for 3 more games we need 3 turnovers and a punt return TD every time in order to win?
It was Adel Desoto up to around 1993 when they added Minburn. I remember because it coincided with the huge floods that year. It used to be tiny (along with Waukee and DCG and several other districts that have exploded in size in the last 20 years). I think the senior class in the early and mid 90s was below 50 kids.

Aiden turned down scholarships from two academies and two Ivy League schools to walk on in Ames. I’m sure glad he did. The punt return is the first of many TDs he’ll have as a Cyclone.
I don't think we ever scored off the turnovers. Punt return td sure would be nice to have a couple more times though.
Brahmer's TD in the first quarter was after the Bell interception.
Don't know much about his background aside from what has been shared about his track times in here. Is it possible he was a late bloomer in football? That in tandem with being a 3A school versus 4a or 5a etc. It seems like historically speaking, few kids that come 3a straight to Iowa or Iowa State end up on scholarship right away, although that is more a hunch of mine and less grounded in research.
It's been KFs secret formula for a decade over east
