He says his high school coach always supported him and told him he could do it.Danielson redshirted his first season and says there was an adjustment to the speed of the major college level. He says he realized in the Spring that he could play in the Big 12.Danielson came of age last year when his 33-yard touchdown reception with 18-seconds remaining lifted the Cyclones to a 33-26 victory at Oklahoma State.Danielson had seven catches and a touchdown run in Iowa State’s win at Ohio last Saturday.
