This is casy Sports Network proudly presented by m prize Bank hello and welcome into another edition of threea I am John Curts joined by my trusty trusty friends as always Derrick Young from K State online Cole manbeck former B rider for the Manhattan Mercury plenty of Christmas spirit being brought to the

Table here today on national Signing days K State has Inked its latest recruiting class and they have done so uh with the back drop of I got to say I love the backdrop of the 2024 class being put on the old like basically the old cat train videos that’s the the

Graphic that they’re using on social media this year looks like the old cat train videos that make me wax very nostalgic about the good old days of K State football under Bill Snyder uh but you know you can get nostalgic if you knock down some 360 vodka or some Ben

Holiday bottled and Bon bourbon from our friends at holiday Distillery as well uh Hey holidays are coming up nothing better to have for the family if you got family coming in then to pour them some Ben holiday bottled in Bon bourbon or some 360 Voda uh go out and support our

Friends at holiday Distillery we great K State folks who support our pod so please show them some love as well so we sit here and record right now Kate has signed its entire class which is uh which is good news 14 member class uh officially for the Wildcats here smaller

Smaller class on uh on national Signing Day this year but that is to be expected and uh think late surge both with some guys getting a fourth star on different recruiting services and obviously Cas day taking in a a really big junior college defensive end and Malcolm Alor Crowder here have

Helped bolster the class as of late seeing this not and I’ll give a shout out to my guy Hazen uh who made note of this but K St will sign eight of uh he’s listing 15 so my bad 15 eight of 15 players rated as a fourstar uh on a

Major recruiting service one being a preferred walk-on which which that’s something that we’ll certainly talk about here so I think that factors in there to pushing it out to uh to 15 but all in all Dy you’re the one who’s followed this class more closely than

Anybody uh how how do you assess what is your high level takeaway of uh the the 2024 recruiting class for the wild cats uh quality over quantity that’s probably how I would just justify it at this point I think you probably hit on all of your needs uh besides one or two clar

Ones that can still be addressed through the train store Coral or other means because I think they still have work to do a wide receiver in nose guard but in terms of everything else I feel confident about what they’ve done um it’s interesting to me uh no High School defense alignment

Signed I don’t think I think that that might it might not be a mistake but that that kind of is glaring to me to where I probably would have felt more comfortable had they got one but in this day age where the transfer portal is such a resource I guess you can go

Classes without doing so at certain positions it just still feels a little uncomfortable but probably because the a in the transfer portal and the frequent use of it is still pretty novel right so I I think if they can do enough through the portal at wide receiver in nose guard or

Or defensive line in general you feel pretty good about where they stand heading into next year um but again quality over quantity as you said um look we loved last year’s class right you had all those instate the instate Splash with Avery Johnson Jordan Allen will anio Andre Davis Wesley Fair

Probably missing a few that I shouldn’t be um with this class I believe especially if you were to voring the walkon situation there with Naro shuni the offensive lineman from South Dakota actually has a higher a higher star rating per recruit you know offensive line was a

Big deal in this recruiting class with specifically and as you look at it some of your best players in the class are along the offensive line a lot of the headlines were driven by the recruitment of Grant bricks who was a top 100 recruit that ended up signing with

Nebraska but I mean can’t be forgotten that K State got some studs up front I mean Gus Hawkins according to the Onre consensus is the number 305 player in the country in the number 21 offensive tackle in the country he’s a fourstar and the on three consensus both on three

And 2247 Sports have ranked 20 51st and 245th nationally respectively and then Kaden Massie obviously out of Lyndon the mammoth offensive tackle number 511 player nationally in the on three consensus the number 21 29 offensive tackle in the on three consensus so as you look at those consensus rankings

Through on three two top 30 offensive tackles in this class and then Navaro shanki who’s walking on Dy like you said is evaluated as a fourstar by multiple recruiting Services it’s the number 565 player in the country in the Onre consensus number 49 interior offensive lineman number two player in South

Dakota both 247 and ESPN have him as a fourstar each have him as the number 18 interior offensive lineman in the country so you’re bringing in some really good players up front and that’s not even to mention that Kyle rakers who’s one of your lower rated recruits

In this class chose Kate over reported offers of Nebraska Iowa state Missouri KU Oklahoma State Purdue Illinois Cincinnati Michigan State Etc and then Ryan Howard uh the brother of will Howard Mammoth interior offensive lineman 67 320 pounder had offers from West Virginia Syracuse Maryland Etc so

Offensive line to me is kind of the big storyline in this class is you’re bringing in Five Guys four of them signing letters of intent um you know and then Navaro shanki who’s walking on is quite the steel in this class now some of these might at least Weight Wise

Might not be updated but you talked about that offensive line I think it’s a really good note to hit and just in general how about the size um kayen Massie listed at 68275 Ryan Howard listed at 67 315 Gus Hawkins listed at 67 280 Nar Shuki listed at 65

290 these guys have the frames man they got the frames to build on uh to where they could I mean they are your prototypical size that you would love up front and they can add weight and muscle when you look at especially Massie Howard and Hawkins yeah before sorry

John I would just say in general that that seems to be remember that one year Chris kleb at the sign day press conference uh immediately after sign day I think it was might have been his first one like we needed to upgrade the speed of this roster and we’ve seen that kind

Of play out because they always been hammering like the 20 M hour Club 21 M hour club like that was a big deal that they thought that they needed to improve the team speed across the board this one felt like it’s like we need to increase

The team size across the board because I just said that about the offensive line and I know they don’t have any High School additions but you had Travis Bates coming in as a transfer defensive lineman from Austin P yeah Malcolm ALC Court Crowder the junior college DM from

Butler Community College and those are huge dudes um that are at least a bit bigger than the the defensive ends that are going to be outgoing and you had taken the count you already had Uso sealo you added Chi Obi AER and uh Jordan Allen D in last year it seems

Like the focus at least in the last year and a half has been to get bigger in the trenches well and I would just say before I let John go here also Easton kilty who we’ve talked about as well transfer offensive lineman from North Dakota coming in 605 305 pounder is

Ranked as the number two interior offensive lineman in the transfer portal according to on three the number 66 player and the transfer portal overall according to on three so you addressed a lot of things with this class because offensive Line’s going to be a big part

Of this team next year with so many guys departing you’re GNA have Taylor porier back Hadley Panzer you know Sam HEC who’s played a few snaps as well um and then uh Carver Willis but you’re gonna have to break in some new guys and so they’ve addressed some things now I

Don’t expect anyone outside of kilty in this uh this class and Kil is obviously a transfer to play next year but uh still you you filled some holes up front you’re talking on the offensive line nobody from the class to play next year yeah I I mean yeah I wouldn’t

Expect I wouldn’t expect Massie Hawkins would you D any of those guys to I mean they’re got a red shirt typically they red shirt offensive lineman I mean yeah have there there hasn’t been one true freshman offens El that didn’t red shirt I guess maybe one I was Hadley paner but

He also gray shirted so that was whole different deals yeah I was just clarifying I mean like because Malcolm aborn Crowder I mean that that may be a plug-and-play guy yeah no yeah right 66 66 295 man 66 295 like you know there was a lot of talk about Nate matlack

Leaving the program and it was because of of schematically he didn’t feel like he felt or uh that he fit really well on the three-man front because you need bigger defensive ends he’s obviously a guy that was not bigger and uh struggled to put on the kind of weight that you

Would need to be in that three-man front I mean that’s the total opposite of alorn crowder is a is a huge dude and and more of your prototypical defensive end in a three-man front the other thing that I I would point out that I think we’ll draw a lot of headlines here and

Speaking to speed and skill positions and now the Avery Johnson era beginning and trying to load him up with weapons you’ve got two fourstar wide receivers here and Trey Davis and and jacqu Bradley demp are we going Jac jacz I know the I’m actually the pronunciations

That Ken States sent out today I think it’s Jack whiz jaquez okay I like it uh jackque Bradley Demps uh he is out of Texas so is Trey Davis uh both earned at least four-star designation from one recruiting service uh on three and ESPN both have Trey Davis as a four-star and

It is on three that has Bradley Demps as a fourstar and you know I think there was even a little bit of concern there because of the role that Kobe Savage and and his family had played in the recruitment there but case they able to land him even with Savage leaving so

Look for a long time wide receiver has been a point of contention with me that it felt like they have not recruited very well at the skill positions particularly receiver and now you know we’re starting to see some improvement there Keegan Johnson was a huge win out

Of the transfer portal last year fending off the likes of Texas A&M and Notre Dame uh certainly Trey Spivey we love the potential of him we’ve already seen what Jace has been doing uh at receiver this year so now you throw into the mix a couple of fourstar prep kids uh that

Is another thing that really stands out about the class to me that it seems to be you’re significantly improving your ability to recruit at the at the skill positions yeah at least according on three two fourstar commits there with the jqu Bradley Demps inre Davis I really like daon right he might

Be my favorite in the entire class maybe outside of the couple those offensive linemen Alor and crowd are maybe the most valuable one just because of how he feels the need and has a great schematic fit um yeah you’re probably split ha is a little bit here but I think Davon rice

Is probably being under so you football that he’s a running back by the way running back Davon right R just a rare explosion rare burst that I think maybe this offense was probably missing I don’t know I mean Ben CIT going to play on Sundays I get it in terms of just an

Explosive running back or explosive wide receiver I think Keegan Johnson can be that I think Jay Brown’s a good wide receiver I don’t know that explosive is necessarily the term there for him and if you were going to describe him uh it’s not like he was being guys over the

Top and out running anyone even on the downfield catches that he did have so I think Devon rice gives you probably a certain skill set on offense that you might have been lacking this year where I think you were the immediately were expecting that from

Johnson but he was so hurt that that it never really unfolded or came to fruition um by the way you mentioned Kobe Savage you just committed to Oregon yeah I mean look Oregon I know we got to go to break Oregon was uh in Manhattan within 12 hours of Kobe Savage

Entering the transfer portal uh their defensive coordinator was uh seen with at the chef with Kobe Savage uh shortly after that so they they were clearly made him a commodity on the wide receiver set front Bradley Demps you guys mentioned it already on three specifically as him as the number 276

Player nationally in the country number 46 receiver and on three specifically as Trey Davis is the number 279 player nationally the number 47 receiver both top 50 players in the state of Texas according to on three specifically so some really good ads there and now you

Just have to they still need guys from the transfer for wide receiver proven Commodities so they got to sign a couple of those maybe they will by the time you guys are listening to this maybe we’ll see a surprise today later but uh still need a couple bodies at wide receiver

It on the app store or Google Play just search KC Sports Network all right Dy I’m gonna I’m gonna throw this over to you now what have we not hit on in this again relatively small class quantity over quality you know actually let’s talk Blake Barnett

Because I think that was one of the bigger storylines that Cas day was able to hold on to him the quarterback in the class A guy who was recruited obviously by Colin Klein he sticks around Taylor brt went and sealed the deal uh when he was able to actually hit the road and

Recruit because K State obviously was down an assistant coach uh he seals the deal on a guy who’s been a a fast Riser um I think definitely would have had some options if he wanted to open things up and 62 205 out of Erie Colorado OB I mean that’s Colin Klein stomping grounds

Right Colorado Not only was he recruiting him he’s a guy that’s from Colorado where Colin was from that was a huge win to be able to go keep Barnett coming in here to the program a guy that has some real athl atticism and I think

Has a lot of potential at QB yeah he’s probably and I still need to look over a senior film probably a little bit more thoroughly but he’s probably more athlete than quarterback right now but when you say athlete we’re talking really an athlete oh very much I mean

His track times are crazy he can really jump so he’s kind of a freak athletically uh in that vein but probably needs to come along a little bit further in the throwing quarterback to apartment and he’ll have time to to do so um he can develop it at a very

Comfortable rate and very comfortable Pace because of what Kansas St has in the quarterback room with Avery Johnson and Jake Jacob can but yeah hats off to call inclin for getting him in the VA obviously but Taylor brat really closed this one because when he went to erer Colorado for that inhome

Visit the feel that I get is that Barnett was leaning towards outs siging with k State now I don’t know that was liter that it was necessarily any power five competition that it was driving that decision I think it was more just the call client

Had left and he didn’t want to play for someone that didn’t recruit him so Taylor brat really had to heor that one home you know in a two or a threeh hour in home visit he did that so that was coming through in the clutch and if that

Doesn’t happen Kansas State’s kind of Upper Creek right now because even with Barnett they only have three scars and quarterbacks going in next year if that didn’t happen you’re only a two and it’s you know a disastrous situation so Taylor brat really saved the day yeah

You weren’t going to be able to get you weren’t going to get be able to get a transfer to come in to back up Avery Johnson in all likelihood that was proven um you know and then at the high school level you’d been scrambling to find another High School quarterback so

Important to to seal off and get marnett to Ink on paper you know again Rivals just ranked him as a fourstar and the number six dual threat quarterback in the country ESPN has him as a 17th rank quarterback on 3 as him as the number 31

QB and the number one player in the state of Colorado uh on three consensus as him as the number two player in the Colorado so that’s a significant piece I think John one thing that and you tweeted this yesterday and I think at least I’m in alignment for you I don’t

Want to speak for Dy but I think K State uh very well could be better at defensive end next season than compared to where they were this year we talk about that three-man front some of the concerns that guys like Nate matlack had playing in that three down front you

Know Brendan mot talked about and his announc pod on three M with Austin Moore that he’s coming back that he wants to get up you know put on maybe 10 15 pounds get around to 250 255 pound range at defensive end so you have Brendan mck coming back but then you’re bringing in

A guy an alorn Crowder who’s 6 foot6 295 pounds a guy like Travis Bates DN transfer from Austin P who they really like who’s 63265 and then obviously Chey Obi isor who’s 6 foot6 probably going to be around 260 265 next year at DN and Jordan Allen who’s 6’4 probably right

Around 250 right now uh we’ll see where he gets to but that they’re going to have more size and length at defensive end it’s more prototypical of what you want for that three-man front well yeah I mean I totally agree I’m I’m with you I some of that was

Because and look I mean nothing against nothing against D maak at all I’m sure he’s right uh about the scheme that that that hampered him some but I I was always like a tad bit underwhelmed there and khid Duke has has been I think good and solid but you always felt like there

Was the potential to be more high level like a like a Felix and never totally saw that so yeah I mean honestly I I feel pretty good and it moving toward guys that are bigger bodies and better scheme fits I actually I come out feeling really good about where the

Where the defensive line is at and and yeah real real quick on alorn crowder I mean you already hit on him but I mean reportedly offers from Miami USC Florida South Carolina Mississippi State North Carolina State Minnesota since Cincinnati you know he had 10 tackles for loss seven sacks this last season at

Butler now he played mostly defensive tackle um but Kansas State use it more as a defensive end number one Jo player number 21 juko player in the on three consensus number four defensive lineman ESPN actually has him as the number five junior college player in the nation 247

Has him as number 20 at Rivals has him at number 17 so a big win for K State in the trans well not transfer portal in the Joo recruit rankings because he was reportedly going to visit four at one point ended up canceling that and kstate

Locks him down uh and gets the the mammoth defensive lineman from Butler I think he’s a guy too and and dyu can weigh in but I think he’s a guy that gives you a little bit more positional flexibility so in a pinch you know if

You need to you could slide him down to nose tackle in a pass rushing situation as maybe a jet package um I don’t know but uh maybe can be also kind of a reserve like jaamon Banks was that knows tackle but primarily play deet yeah I

Mean depending on what they do at nose guard how well they can fulfill that need the rest of the way because you don’t really have any signs that you’re closing on anything and they could be emersed una aware so I don’t want to like bash them bash them too hard but a

Little underwhelmed by the effort or at least the effectiveness and recr on that front and if it continues this way then maybe it is the plan is to kind of alternate you know behind Uso at least you have some kind of faction that in addition to Daman El Alo you’re talking

About maybe alorn Crowder and Banks still put time there in the middle yeah that that was one of the bigger losses and I don’t you want to take a stab of pronouncing the name of the the defensive tag the nose guard that they lost to to failer Tonga leoh

There you go that that was a disappointing one because he was he was on his last visit was to K State right they got the final visit for him yeah was K State Baylor BYU he picks Baylor um Michael boganowski is Ken State Oklahoma picks Oklahoma Grant bricks K

State Oklahoma Nebraska it picks Nebraska Jan Ross K State Alabama it picks Alabama those are the four probably consequential misses now obviously a few of those hurt more than others just because of how well they recruit offensive line for example like cool pointed out that bricks doesn’t

Become really that devastating of a loss but those are the four misses that stand out because they were such high profile yeah Jon Ross would have loved to have gotten him just because you don’t really have a prep defensive end in this class uh but turn someone like brics boganowski

Ross to be fair like a guy like Ken Massie basically had an identical offer sheet in kids they got him so it’s not to say they’re losing every high-profile B and they they signed one linebacker in this class right Dy we assume Jake Stonebreaker who is H the number three

Player two Jake Stonebreaker and boom Morris who the fs yeah forgot about Boon Morris apologies there Stone breaker Bo Morris considered an Austin remain clone okay uh D Dy you want to talk I mean I know this is technically we’re talking about Signing Day for the the high

School and Joo guys but Jordan Riley pretty important transfer at at safety for K State coming in if we want to talk overall about the position at safety they also got Callum Barta added to Pica who was a onepoint of Nebraska commit uh thought about the the work done there at

Safety yeah three safeties because then they added Dante strap Thomas as well on Tuesday night that they signed today he’s a junior college from Southwest Mississippi Community College as well uh defeated some group of five schools for that one uh really that one kind of reminds me of the Kobe Savage

Recruitment not necessarily in style play uh I think he’s a little bigger although he’s just as physical but just the kind of how they were able to secure him pretty late in the early sighting period against group of five schools that’s exactly how it played out for

Kobe Savage and a guy that maybe you’re probably back fing kobby Savage with is a transfer from Ball State and Jordan Riley and he has a lot more size than what Kobe Savage did and I don’t know if they play if he’s the Jack safety or not

But I don’t know I guess my working assumption is based on his production already at the FBS level with Ball State which he was very very productive I’d go in and the spring thinking you have three probably penciled in starters that you feel good about at safety and VJ

Payne Maris seagull and Jordan Riley with you know the death behind him starting with Colby McAllister and and you hope maybe you get some further development from guys like Nick Andre stiger and Daniel cbbs as well Jack fabber has played a bit this year um four games before red

Shirting so I like the depth at safety especially if stiger cobs can come along but I’m not going to blindly say that they’ve upgraded there at safety and and I think to for that to come to fruition there has to be a smooth transition for

Jordan Riley and VJ pay needs to make uh a bit of a jump compared to where he was last year but you probably feel comfortable about what you have in that back end at this point and maybe you want another corner but I know they like justice James you feel good about the

Starters there in Keen Garber and Jacob Parish um can they get someone else to to come along as well I I know you mentioned you know on Dante Thomas like he has a bunch of group of five offers which may some people may be underwhelmed from but to your point on

Kobe Savage when they got him they flipped him from North Texas and his other offers according to on three were akan Eastern Kentucky Garder web and incarnate work and he turned into an all Big 12 safety and Oregon and Washington were seeking his Service as heavily as

Soon as he entered the portal so I trust these guys when it comes to the secondary especially to your point that’s what I was goingon to say between Kobe Savage even Willie Julius Brent Josh Hayes Russ yeast Reggie Stubblefield theis is on and on yeah

Yeah on and on so yeah yeah so these guys Maris seagull just sler yeah I mean there’s there’s almost 10 guys in the last three years that they’ve landed at the juko level or transfer portal in the secondary has there been any of them not hit and I guess you’re still waiting on

Stiger cobs and Justice James A little but yeah Tyler Nom you’re waiting on but he was a late edition and you don’t know yet about half and all those four guys are still in the roster if they didn’t feel good about them they would have been ushered out just like the him full

They have about the one last guy I was going to ask you about uh Dy ear as we kind of make our way through this and I agree with all of your thoughts on on the secondary I I definitely trust them there but uh you get a kid out of uh out

Of the Kansas City area and John price at uh at running back who I know we’ve already talked about you know what you’re getting in kind of the The Flash the home run hitter out of Vegas there but your thoughts on on price being added to the Back Field that’s your

Stopping ground what do you what can you tell us well Blue Valley kid right well I’m Blue Valley West man you think I’m out here watching Blue Valley ey I can’t keep track of you guys’ damn Blue Valley you know I’m up here in a South OA Green

Hill oh yeah there’s more OAS than blue valleys I think at this I can’t keep track all there’s there’s only one but you know what they say Cole there’s only one there’s only one Spring Hill High School okay funny um Valley Shing Mission El it’s just a bunch of directions and you

Never who know yeah why don’t you just start talking Maryland again John you know what John Price number 52 running back at the on three consensus Rivals as him as the 12th ranked allpurpose running back more of your your physical type workload type running back like a DJ giddens right

Dy yeah I don’t get the sense that he’s says big um maybe a little bit more Vision uh I think he’s a more of a developmental yeah like I think Devon rice has enough pop and burst where in doses he can play in year one if that’s

What they need from him I’m not sure that I would say John price would be ready for that Davon rice has to I mean one of those freshman has to play next year right DOI I mean you can’t just have Joe Jackson and DJ gens if they

Don’t land a transfer I mean it’s gonna be daon rice in all likelihood get some snaps over would think yeah you’re right but I will say how many snaps were given running backs besides the two this year Well Fus appeared in several games right got a few did he appear in several games

I play he played against well he play he wasn’t against UCF because they didn’t have Tran ward he got some snaps in that game uh look I think no I no you’re right I’m just saying like the third running back this year barely I but I

But to your point on Davon rice I didn’t even get to to hit on him I I love him as a recruit I watched his film you know he’s the type of explosive I guy that this offense needs they were missing that that guy that could be the home run

Hitter this year and you know whether it’s them lighting him up in the slot and getting him open in the passing game or just a a play in the running game I mean a guy like him that’s explosive that averaged almost 12 yards per touch in his high school football career the

Last two years at a Powerhouse at Bishop Gorman is a terrific ad to this class and it sounds like he probably had a lot more power five offers and attention than were reported kind of went under the radar K State snuck him in fell good about it for a while according to udy

And uh and gets him I love that addition and then John Price probably a guy that’s a candidate to red shirt then develop yeah I mean that the the way that they handled the recruitment of rice where it was telling telling everybody to be Hush Hush about it I

Think speaks to what what they think of him by the I’m seeing too K State’s listing John Price’s JB price so are we going JB then JB price uh sure I never liked the name John anyway oh yeah I’ve never met a John that I actually like so um you know you set

Yourself up for that one buddy yeah I you know I know it’s funny there’s a John that I’m just gonna call you JL one time one time there was a John that took my courtside seats um away no don’t we okay I will read the text messages on

That thing I will read we don’t need to go we don’t need to go there uh tried to offer them to you and Brody not once but twice hey for our listeners D you need to know this I asked I insisted to John if his friend didn’t show up I urged him

To take Brody just to sit and watch the game with him Courtside for the Nebraska game and he was too nervous to sit with my son you you can’t dude you can’t hand me a kid I were right next to the court man is that how was that Michael Jordan

Meme F them kids I mean John John was Brody is easy you guys know this but but John was paranoid and this is probably fair that Brody might have gotten a technical on the crow exactly like I listen I’ve seen the I heard him what was he yelling after the game too you

Know and trying to get us to put it on social media like I just didn’t want the kid running and everybody looking at me like what are you doing like I can’t you can’t put me in charge of a kid man I’m sorry do why he do why he yelled

Something else out after the game on Sunday too that was different and uh he heck he might have went over he might have taking John over to on Press Road to where somebody was sitting and said something so it’s probably for the best but he really wanted to sit court side

So he actually was totally fine he was like John I’ll sit with you take me so he was after the game he was like you said you were gonna come get me when your friend left and I was like listen man I’m sorry I uh I I was too too nervous

But yeah anyway shout out shout out to our friend Gore uh we much appreciate it yeah shout out for hooking John up so you know okay again G I will show you the text messages of how this whole exchange played out it was Cole whenever

I try to get Cole to give me some sort of a plan or like what are we doing tickets wise or what are we doing it’s always wishy-washy up until the very last minute and you can never like make decisions or figure out what’s going on

So that was that was just part for the course once again there but Nicole this is your last chance I’ve well actually I’ve really already given it away so no you can’t have the ticket get to witch state but I offered Cole a witch State ticket that I

Was turned it down you gave that away yes I did because you emphatically told me twice that you weren’t taking it I thought I was going with you all right I’m we’re we’re we’re ejecting on this I I’m I’m hungry I need to get some breakfast Dereck is completely

Uninterested he has totally lost interest in the conversation yeah does anybody have anything else left to say about the signing signing class anything else I don’t have anything else just want to wish everyone happy Holidays happy holidays to to president Lenton Jean Taylor on behalf of Richard leton
