New Iowa State coach Paul Rhoads has spent this spring installing a new system and trying to build some chemistry along the way. The Cyclones will out to improve upon last season’s 2-10 record in 2009.

Rhoads says if you look at championship and successful teams, they always talk about chemistry, and he thinks this team is getting there.

Rhoads says it takes time for a team to develop chemistry. He says the offseason program is designed to be hard and uncomfortable and as they come through those situations, you gain chemistry.

The Cyclones conclude spring drills with an intrasquad game next weekend.
