Update: 2025-12-08
Description
Jimmy Rogers, formerly of South Dakota State, has been named Iowa States new head coach, a move that was years in the making. Rogers, who had a long-standing connection with Iowa State athletic director Jamie Pollard, had initially planned to take a step up in his career at Washington State. However, the opportunity at Iowa State presented itself faster than expected, leading to a swift transition. Rogers, who had spent most of his adult life at South Dakota State, expressed his desire to coach the Cougars in their upcoming Idaho Potato Bowl game, but the college football system made it impossible. Washington State is now working to find Rogers replacement.
