Texans signed Kansas State QB Collin Klein. Klein was a run-first quarterback at K-State, throwing just 30 career touchdown passes. With an awkward, unnatural throwing motion and little velocity, Klein was asked to work out as a tight end at the Combine, but declined. He showed enough physicality in college that he could perhaps be tried at linebacker or safety, although Klein has 4.7-4.8 speed. The odds are against Klein having a long NFL career. |
|
Seahawks selected Kansas State WR Chris Harper with the No. 123 overall pick. It's another great value pick by GM John Schneider. Harper (6-foot 3/4, 229) was Collin Klein's go-to guy in 2012, catching 58 balls for 857 yards (14.8 YPR) and three touchdowns. The stats weren't sensational in K-State's mind-numbing run-first offense, but Harper is a highly physical receiver with big (9 3/4") strong hands and impressive tape, winning at the catch point with strength. Drawing some Anquan Boldin comparisons, Harper ran 4.55 at the Combine with a 35.5-inch vertical and 20 bench-press reps. Harper lacks true separation skills, but projects as a classic Z receiver. He'll play special teams as a rookie and fight for wideout snaps in a year or three. |

Texans signed Kansas State QB Collin Klein. Klein was a run-first quarterback at K-State, throwing just 30 career touchdown passes. With an awkward, unnatural throwing motion and little velocity, Klein was asked to work out as a tight end at the Combine, but declined. He showed enough physicality in college that he could perhaps be tried at linebacker or safety, although Klein has 4.7-4.8 speed. The odds are against Klein having a long NFL career.
Seahawks selected Kansas State WR Chris Harper with the No. 123 overall pick. It's another great value pick by GM John Schneider. Harper (6-foot 3/4, 229) was Collin Klein's go-to guy in 2012, catching 58 balls for 857 yards (14.8 YPR) and three touchdowns. The stats weren't sensational in K-State's mind-numbing run-first offense, but Harper is a highly physical receiver with big (9 3/4") strong hands and impressive tape, winning at the catch point with strength. Drawing some Anquan Boldin comparisons, Harper ran 4.55 at the Combine with a 35.5-inch vertical and 20 bench-press reps. Harper lacks true separation skills, but projects as a classic Z receiver. He'll play special teams as a rookie and fight for wideout snaps in a year or three.
The Baltimore Ravens "really like" Kansas State WR Chris Harper, according to draft insider Tony Pauline. Harper unofficially ran in the 4.38 range at the school's pro day on Tuesday, but is drawing plenty of comparisons to Anquan Boldin due to his size and ability to make catches in traffic. We expect an early third day selection to be in his future.
Kansas State WR Chris Harper ran an official 4.55 forty at the NFL Combine. Harper registered a 1.55 10 yard split. The big target is one of the more thickly built receivers in the class and is drawing comparisons to Anquan Boldin. We think he's selected on the draft's third day.
Kansas State QB Collin Klein will not work out at TE at the Combine despite teams requesting he do so. Klein will throw just like the other attending quarterbacks. This might signal the inevitable position switch in Klein's future, but he has prepared for the event as a passer and will finish it as one.
Former NFL scout Bryan Broaddus has heard at least one team is hoping to workout Kansas State QB Collin Klein as a TE. "He will do position drills in front of the combine," Broaddus tweeted. Klein will be among the quarterbacks throwing to receivers during group drills, but we do not expect him to impress. He certainly did not while attending the East-West Shrine week.
Scouts Inc.'s Matt Williamson likes Kansas State WR Chris Harper in the top 40. Williamson's comment comes a couple of days after The Sideline View's Lance Zierlein said Harper is a target for the Houston Texans outside of the second round. Nevertheless, Harper's stock seems to be rising. He compares favorably to Anquan Boldin.
Kansas State QB Collin Klein will throw at the NFL Combine. Klein has been working with Jake Plummer in preparation for the event, but his motion and placement needs plenty of work. The Heisman trophy finalist did not help himself during the East-West Shrine week and a position switch could be in his future.
Lance Zierlein of the Sideline View believes Kansas State WR Chris Harper fits what the Texans are looking for after the second-round. Harper is a bigger target but is expected to run quite well in Indy. The Kansas State receiver profiles similarly to Anquan Boldin, winning with strong hands, but which version of Boldin will be the question.
Kansas State QB Collin Klein is preparing for the Combine by working with former NFL QB Jake Plummer. "I've taken away a lot from Jake; it's hard to pick one," Klein said. "His approach to the game. He has a great perspective." His coaches went on to add that they are working with Klein's arm strength, trunk stability, and a lot of repetitions with the three-, five- and seven-step drops. He will attend the Combine as a quarterback.
Former NFL scout Russ Lande cites sources that have told him Kansas State WR Chris Harper will lock up a high second-round pick if he runs in the 4.4s at the Combine. The same sources say Harper doesn't show that speed on film but Harper has been clocked at these times before. The Kansas State product had a very good week in Mobile, showing reliable hands and consistently separated form corners despite a very thick frame.
Kansas State QB Collin Klein measured 6-foot-4 5/8 and 218 pounds at this week's East-West Shrine weigh-in. Klein has 9 1/4-inch hands and a 77-inch wingspan. A late-round pick to undrafted free agent prospect, Klein has struggled throughout the practice week and has a bleak outlook for the NFL game. Klein could wind up in the CFL.
Although Kansas State QB Collin Klein has noticeably struggled at East-West Shrine practices, Sirius XM Radio's Adam Caplan suggests that increased usage of option offenses in the NFL could help Klein's chances of being drafted. "Collin Klein struggles with his mechanics," Caplan observed. "He holds onto the ball too long. He holds it high. He's got a high release and a release where he waits a second and throws it. He's gonna struggle. Now, he does run the option very well and ... with the NFL moving toward spread looks, Collin Klein could get drafted late just because he can run the option."
According to SI's Tony Pauline, Kansas State QB Collin Klein is "really struggling" as a passer early at East-West Shrine practices. It's only a practice and a half in, and this isn't the first we've heard of Klein scuffling in the all-star game practices. Per Pauline, Klein "pushes the ball" and has appeared "indecisive" in 7-on-7 drills. Generally not an effective thrower of the football, Klein is a long shot for an extensive pro career unless he finds another way to make an impact. He won't be a full-time NFL quarterback.
The East-West Shrine Game announced Kansas State senior QB Collin Klein will be attending their event. Klein will almost certainly go through practice as a quarterback due to the event's lack of numbers at the position. This is obviously a big draw, but it will be interesting to see if Klein succeeds in practice. The two other quarterbacks on the East roster include Louisiana Tech's Colby Cameron and Nathan Stanley from Southeastern Louisiana.
Kansas State senior QB Collin Klein completed 17-of-32 attempts for 151 yards, one touchdown, and two interceptions against Oregon. Klein's best throws came on crossing routes, which he consistently converted early in the game. Along with not converting some third or fourth and short situations, Klein's lone real interception occurred on an underthrown downfield route. He may attend a postseason all star game as a quarterback, but his future may not be at that position.
Kansas State WR Chris Harper will attend the Senior Bowl. Harper is a thickly built former quarterback who has made a seamless transition to receiver. His season totals of 786 yards and three touchdowns on 50 receptions aren't eye popping, but if Harper shows the ability to separate with burst and not just with his frame, he could sneak into the third day.
ESPN's Adam Schefter reported that Kansas State QB Collin Klein will not be invited to the Senior Bowl. This may appear to be an outrage, but from a prospects standpoint there are a number of senior quarterbacks more coveted than Klein. Some may suggest Klein should get an invitation at a position outside of quarterback, but high level all star games are not the place to make that transition, unless your name is Denard Robinson. Schefter adds that Scouts are "concerned about (Klein's) throwing motion and passing abilities."
One NFL Scout told the NFL Network's Albert Breer that Kansas State senior QB Collin Klein "is what he is... he's not a passer." The same scout added, "he's benefiting from playing in an awful conference for defense. If anything, he's come back down to Earth since the earlier part of the season." Klein lacks the same explosiveness and shorter throwing motion that Colin Kaepernick possesses, but he could be utilized in a similar "closer" role as the one Kaepernick handled earlier in the season.
Quarterback guru George Whitfield believes that Colin Kaepernick's NFL success should "open minds" to Kansas State senior QB Collin Klein. The two offer different skill sets, with Kaepernick possessing quicker movements and a stronger arm with a short motion. Klein's best assets on the ground are his patience and strength when hitting the line of scrimmage. Kaepernick has altered his throwing motion a bit, and although Klein has definitely improved as a downfield passer, his elongated release will turn some off.
A report from Yahoo's Dan Wetzel says that Kansas State senior QB Collin Klein was removed from Saturday's game against Oklahoma State due to a possible concussion. Per Wetzel, Klein "didn't know he just scored (a) touchdown" while ont he sideline, so a concussion is certainly possible. By all accounts, Klein is expected to practice on a regular schedule and suit up this weekend against TCU, but the school has yet to conclude as much.
The mother of Kansas State senior QB Collin Klein said she expects her son to be "100 percent this week." She added that Klein, "will begin a normal film review and normal practice week as per usual." The senior left Saturday's game against Oklahoma State in the third quarter with an undisclosed injury.
Kansas State senior QB Collin Klein passed for 245 yards on 16-of-22 attempts, adding 64 rushing yards and a touchdown on 17 carries, prior to leaving with an injury in the third quarter against Oklahoma State. Hopefully Klein's injury isn't serious, but it was enough for head coach Bill Snyder to sideline him for the rest of the game. The senior's downfield passing was on target once again, and the Wildcats allowed Klein to roll out of the pocket.
Kansas State senior QB Collin Klein completed 19-of-26 passes for 233 yards and two touchdowns, along with 12 carries for 83 yards and another two touchdowns, Saturday against Texas Tech. As we saw when they played West Virginia, Texas Tech boasts a very solid defense, but Klein and Kansas State were able to beat them downfield early then pound them on the ground late. We continue to believe Klein's best role at the next level would be similar to the way San Francisco is using Colin Kaepernick, although Klein offers less straight-line speed.
Kansas State senior QB Collin Klein completed 19-of-21 passes for 323 yards and three touchdowns, to go along with 12 carries for 41 yards and four touchdowns, Saturday against West Virginia. Klein is an absolute beast and has improved his downfield accuracy despite some gimpy mechanics. Once he gets going Klein is tough to stop, but he is a difficult projection in the NFL. We expect the senior to be drafted, but sometime in the third day.
Kansas State senior QB Collin Klein accounted for 187 passing yards to go along with 105 rushing yards and three touchdowns on the ground Saturday against Iowa State. Optimus Klein continues to carry this team. We have no idea where he translates in the NFL due to a poor throwing motion that takes a long time to get the ball out of his hand, but he has improved accuracy on downfield throws.
Kansas State senior QB Collin Klein threw for 129 yards on 7-of-14 attempts, including two touchdowns, and added another two scores on 116 yard rushing in Saturday's game against Kansas. Klein does it all, and despite his lack of mechanics, he isn't afraid of testing coverage downfield in one on one situations. We have no clue where he projects at the next level, but he is certainly fun to watch in college.
Will Collin Klein be going to the air more in 2012? Including sacks, Klein had 394 rushing attempts last season against 300 passes. While the offense hums along nicely, chews up clock and moves the chains when Klein is running well, the senior-to-be may use his receivers and tight ends with more frequency in an effort to be less predictable. Placing a little more emphasis on the pass is something that should play out during Saturday's spring game.
Kansas State quarterback Collin Klein was held to 215 total yards, including just 41 rushing, in a 29-16 Cotton Bowl loss to Arkansas. Klein entered the game with 1,099 yards and 26 TDs rushing. He had all of 41 yards (one TD) on 24 attempts against the Hogs. Through the air, Klein was 16-of-30 for 174 yards and 1/1. Forced to go to the air with the running game as a whole held in check, his 30 attempts were his second-most (38 vs Oklahoma State, Nov. 5) on the season.
Quarterback Collin Klein had 244 total yards and two touchdowns in the Wildcats 30-23 win over Iowa State. Klein was once again better on the ground than through the air, only completing 7 of 15 passes on the day, though one was for a 68-yard touchdown. The junior rushed 26 times for 86 yards and a one-yard score, his 26th of the season. It is the 11th straight game in which Klein has rushed for a touchdown, while his passing touchdown totals now sit at 12 for the year. He now has managed to score one way or another in every game for the Wildcats this season.
Kansas State quarterback Collin Klein totaled 384 yards and had 6 total touchdowns in a four-overtime win against Texas A&M. Klein had five rushing touchdowns and added one through the air, including the one-yard game-winning rush in the fourth overtime. The junior has rushed for a score in all games except one, and has passed for a touchdown in all but two. Klein has rushed for over 90 yards in eight out of the team's ten games, and now has 34 total touchdowns (10 pass, 24 rush).
Kansas State quarterback Collin Klein ran for 4 touchdowns and threw for a fifth in the Wildcats' 59-21 win at Kansas. Klein was also 12-of-19 for a career-best 195 yards. While he has been consistently effective through the air this season, he gets most of his mileage on the ground. His four rushing TDs give him 10 in the last three games and 14 on the season. Klein has a combined 22 touchdowns through seven games.
Former quarterback Chris Harper has transitioned nicely into a productive receiver at Kansas State. A star high-school QB in Kansas, Harper signed on with Oregon, but never played for the Ducks. He transferred back to his home state two years ago and has developed into a nice receiver for the Wildcats. In fact, he enters Saturday's game against Missouri with a team-high 17 catches, only eight fewer than what he had all last season.
Kansas State quarterback Collin Klein will have to mix up the play calling against Miami, which won't be easy. Kansas State's running game ranks 35th nationally after two games. That looks good even if the opponents were Eastern Kentucky (FCS) and Kent State. What does not look good is the leading rusher among running backs is sophomore John Hubert with only 120 yards and no other RB has as many as 30. Translation: Klein (271 yards) is in desperate need of help. A banged up O-line is an issue and the passing has not had to show much, which it will have to against Miami on Saturday.
Kansas State junior Collin Klein impressed teammates and coaches on his way to be named No. 1 quarterback. Klein will be the Wildcats' third starting quarterback in as many seasons since Josh Freeman secured the position before departing to the NFL after the 2008 campaign. The window is wide open for him to put his stamp on the program for the next two years. The 6-foot-5, 225-pounder made two starts last season, rushing for more than 125 yards in both. He threw no more than six passes in any of his nine appearances, but he worked diligently on the passing game in the spring and again in fall camp.
According to incoming Kansas State quarterback Daniel Sams, Collin Klein has been moved back to receiver. A couple of things here. First, I wouldn't put much stock into what a recruit was told by coaches while being courted to come play football at ÿtheir school. Second,ÿKlein gave the Wildcats the best option to win last season. His throwing ability may not be up to snuff, but he can do serious damage on the ground. And the offense moved when he was in the game. Obviously this is one to watch closely.
Down by eight with just over a minute to play, Kansas State receiver Adrian Hilburn scampered into the end zone for what could be the tying touchdown. But wait, there's a flag for excessive celebration as Hilburn saluted the crowd after the play and the Wildcats were forced to attempt the 2-point conversion from the 18 yard line instead of the 3. Of course the attempt failed. The intent of the rule is to keep players from drawing attention to themselves. Given the circumstances and Hilburn's gesture, the only people that drew attention to themselves were the two officials that robbed the Wildcats of a chance to tie the game. Bottom line, common sense needs to take over, you don't make that call.
Kansas State quarterback Carson Coffman threw two touchdowns and ran in three more as the Wildcats waltzed into Lawrence and smoked the Jayhawks. Every Coffman score brought plenty of expletives from owners of star running back Daniel Thomas. Since when did the K-State quarterback start believing he was Taylor Martinez?
Kansas State coach Bill Snyder will stick with quarterback Carson Coffman when the Wildcats take on Kansas this Thursday. The Kansas State offense is one that calls a whole bunch of plays for Daniel Thomas. Against Nebraska this doesn't work, however it's not a bad philosophy against most. This means that unless your league gives points for firm hand-offs, Coffman or any other K-State QB should be avoided.
Kansas State quarterback Carson Coffman finished 6-of-12 for 105 passing yards and one interception against Iowa State. He also ran for 37 yards and a TD on the ground. His passing performance against Missouri State is clearly the exception and not the rule. The K-State offense is really the Daniel Thomas show, so numbers like you saw today are what you can expect from Coffman.
Just a week after failing to crack 70 passing yards, Kansas State quarterback Carson Coffman went 18-of-26 for 279 yards and three TDs, as the Wildcats took down Missouri State. Missouri State was focused on taking Daniel Thomas away, and while that didn't work, it did give Coffman plenty of opportunities in the passing game. Defenses are certainly going to key on Thomas all year, but Coffman won't repeat this type of performance once Big 12 play starts.
Kansas State quarterback Carson Coffman threw for just 67 yards on 11-of-16 passing. He did throw for one TD but was sacked five times and lost a fumble. It's no secret that this is Daniel Thomas' team, but Coffman didn't show enough to keep defenses from loading up to stop the run. For now, none of the K-State receivers are worth owning, and the same goes for Coffman.
Kansas State coach Bill Snyder named Carson Coffman his starting quarterback. The Wildcats open up against UCLA on Saturday. All indications had been that Coffman was the front-runner, particularly after blowing up in the spring game. Outside of Big 12 only leagues, this doesn't have fantasy implications given the team's focus on the running game with Daniel Thomas. You may remember that Coffman also started last season before losing the job.
Kansas State held an open practice on Saturday, and according to a few different sites, including the Kansas City Star, Carson Coffman was the top performer of the three QBs vying for the starting job. We've pegged Coffman as the starter since his huge performance in the spring game, but Bill Snyder continues to drag out the process, saying that none of the competitors have stood out. Either way, Coffman is only an option in Big 12 leagues when (or I guess if) he is named the starter.
Kansas State coach Bill Snyder reiterated that quarterback Carson Coffman has a slight edge in the race to win the starting quarterback job and earn the right to hand the ball to Daniel Thomas a whole bunch of times. Coffman leads a three-horse race with Collin Klein and Sam Lamur. None of the three should inspire much fantasy optimism, despite Coffman's legendary performance in the team's spring game.
Kansas State quarterback Carson Coffman threw for 440 yards and seven touchdowns in Saturday's Purple/White game. Coffman's favorite target was Minnesota transfer Broderick Smith who hauled in 12 passes for 167 yards and four scores. We've become accustomed to coach Bill Snyder running up the score on inferior opponents in the past; this time he elected to do it against his second team defense.
Despite Kansas State coach Bill Snyder's assertion that Chris Harper is a wide receiver first and foremost, Harper did at least hint that he could move around come the fall. "I'll probably move around a little bit," Harper said, "but the big man determines that." Harper went on to say he's been slowed a bit this spring by nagging injuries, but getting back up-to-speed. As we've mentioned before, Harper is a fantasy wildcard this year. He could be a playmaker that is utilized in a variety of ways or he could catch a couple balls a game. He's worth a late pick as a sleeper in BCS-only leagues.
Kansas State's Chris Harper, who transferred from Oregon in large part because he wanted an opportunity to play quarterback, is now happy as a clam to be catching footballs in Manhattan. Go figure. Harper is a very intriguing athlete, and it wouldn't surprise us at all if he scores in a variety of ways in 2010, including throwing the pigskin. However on a team that will likely be built around Daniel Thomas, his fantasy production will be sporadic.
In a story we originally missed, Kansas State wide receiver Lamark Brown left the team earlier this year. With the graduation of Brandon Banks and Attrail Snipes, the Wildcats lose their top three receivers from last season. The good news is the bring in two promising transfers in Chris Harper and Brodrick Smith.
Kansas State coach Bill Synder gave Carson Coffman the early edge in the quarterback battle, though Collin Klein and Sammuel Lamur will get opportunities to make an impression. Snyder told The Topeka Capital-Journal that Lamur is the best runner of the bunch, thus he's one to watch in this race. Regardless of who emerges, the starter will likely struggle to post consistent fantasy numbers.
The Topeka Capital-Journal reports that Kansas State's Chris Harper, assumed to be a factor in the quarterback battle, will "play exclusively at wide receiver." This is a bit of a surprise as the Oregon transfer seemed an intriguing option to run the Bill Snyder offense. Look for Harper's talents to be used in a variety of ways, thus he's a fantasy factor in Big 12 leagues.
ESPN's Ted Miller lists Kansas State transfer quarterback/wide receiver Chris Harper as one of his Big 12 players to watch this spring and fall. We love Harper's potential at quarterback under Bill Snyder. Snyder's best teams have had a quarterback (Michael Bishop) that can run and pass, which Harper can do.
Kansas State wide receiver Brandon Banks caught nine passes for 156 yards and returned six kicks for 195 yards, including a 98-yard touchdown in the fourth quarter. Banks' kickoff return for a touchdown marks his fourth of this season and the fifth of his career. This garners him Big 12 records for season and career kickoff return scoring.
After having a problem holding onto the ball early in the year, wide receiver Brandon Banks has regained his role as Kansas State's punt returner. Banks has seen a sharp drop off in touchdowns this season. Banks had nine touchdown receptions in 2008, but only one so far in 2009. Maybe he can find paydirt returning kicks.
Kansas State coach Bill Snyder will continue to split practice snaps between Grant Gregory and Carson Coffman as each has been unable to put a Ted Nugent-style stranglehold on the job. Each quarterback has had his moments of solid play and also seen his struggles as well. At this point neither Gregory nor Coffman is a fantasy option.
Kansas State quarterbacks had little success against Texas Tech on Saturday. Starter Grant Gregory was replaced in the second quarter by Carson Coffman and both saw their struggles in the 66-14 loss. Gregory ended the day with 37 yards on five of eight passing and was sacked three times. Coffman fared a little better, with 131 yards on 11 of 16 passing on the day. This quarterback carousel for the Wildcats shows no sign of stopping any time soon with games like this in the books.
Kansas State coach Bill Snyder has not named his starting quarterback for this Saturday's game with Texas Tech, though following his play against Iowa State it's hard to envision Grant Gregory not starting. Gregory and Carson Coffman will battle it out in practice this week, and Snyder will name his starter later in the week.
Kansas State quarterback Grant Gregory threw for 216 yards, two touchdowns and an interception on 16 of 23 passing and also ran for a score in Saturday's one-point victory over Iowa State, 24-23. Gregory was the man under center for the Wildcats for the entire game, replacing Carson Coffman - who had been the starter in the previous four games this season. It seems that Gregory might get the nod again after this solid game performance.
Kansas State wide receiver Brandon Banks caught three passes for 90 yards in Saturday's game. The impressive - and even record-tying - mark of Banks' day came as he returned two kickoffs for touchdowns, just the 12th man in NCAA history to achieve this feat. This gave him over 300 all-purpose yards on the day.
Although both starter Carson Coffman and veteran transfer Grant Gregory were ineffective in Kansas State's loss on Saturday, coach Bill Snyder seems resigned to playing the cards he's been dealt, which means we can likely expect to see Coffman under center. The Wildcats' trip to Westwood to tackle the Bruins will present Bill Snyder with the type of non-conference foe he usually avoids: one that could compete in his own conference. And in light of the quarterback struggles it's a good idea to pass on the Kansas State skill talent.
Kansas State coach Bill Snyder today named Carson Coffman his starting quarterback for the opener, though he said the competition with USF transfer Grant Gregory will remain open. This comes as a slight surprise to us, as we felt Gregory's skill set could be a better fit in the run-first offense in Manhattan. Things can change, but it looks it's Coffman's job for the time being.
South Florida transfer Grant Gregory has pulled even with Carson Coffman in the race to be Kansas State's starting quarterback.
We've been giving the edge to Gregory because of his ability to run, despite Coffman being named the starter exiting spring camp.
Kansas State transfer Grant Gregory, who was granted a sixth year of eligibility, is excited to get a second chance to play football and compete for the Wildcats' starting job. "I'd play college football until I'm 40 if they'd let you," Gregory said. We hear you Grant. We'd hang around off campus keg parties until we are 40 if they'd let us too. We like Gregory's chances to win the starting job. In fact we see it happening before August camp breaks.
Kansas State quarterback Carson Coffman knows he's in for a quarterback battle now that Grant Gregory has arrived on the scene. Gregory's slight advantage rests in his athleticism, though Coffman's familiarity with the offense seems to negate that edge. We like Gregory, though whoever emerges will have some fantasy potential in deeper Big XII leagues.
Former Kansas State wide receiver Deon Murphy will enter the NFL supplemental draft next week. Murphy left the team in March.
Over the past few weeks we've read several reports about Kansas State head coach Bill Snyder stressing the team's lack of consistency this spring. "Good football teams develop consistency, and we are not there yet by any stretch of the imagination," Snyder said. This includes quarterback Carson Coffman, who despite a strong spring game, still has a ways to go. Use caution when drafting players from Manhattan, Kansas.
Working with the first team offense Kansas State running back Keithen Valentine rushed for 90 yards and two scores on 20 carries in Saturday's spring game. Valentine will exit spring as the starting running back. With the Wildcats' renewed focus on the run game, he could turn into a decent fantasy option.
Working with the first team offense Kansas State quarterback Carson Coffman completed 25-of-36 passes for 334 yards and three touchdowns in Saturday's spring game. After the game Coffman was named a captain along with tight end Jeron Mastrud, linebacker Alex Hrebec, and offensive lineman Nick Stringer. I think it is safe to say Coffman will be the starter this fall.
In an interview with ESPN's Tim Griffin, Kansas State wide receiver Brandon Banks says his role may change. "Hopefully, I'll be a big part of the offense, but truthfully, I really don't know what I will be doing," Banks said. "I know I'll touch the ball more than last year." With a larger emphasis put on the run game under returning head coach Bill Snyder, look for Banks to be used more in the run game with direct snaps or end-arounds.
Kansas State head coach Bill Snyder says that quarterback Carson Coffman "has made a big jump in his performance" the last few days. We have Coffman penciled in as the Wildcats' starter. However, Collin Klein and Joseph Kassanavoid are also still in the running.
After a stint at running back last fall, Kansas State's Lamark Brown is back at wide receiver this spring. Besides receiver Brandon Banks, we'll take a wait and see approach on Kansas State players this fall.
Wide receiver Deon Murphy has left the Kansas State football team. While no reason has been given, it appears he and coach Bill Snyder weren't playing nice. Murphy's departure means the Wildcats will likely lean more heavily on Brandon Banks in 2009.
