It's obviously Delton. If the recruit they have committed for next year is as good as he's supposed to be, he will then be able to redshirt next year, and then have 2 years difference between him and Delton. If we muddle through Ertz/Hubs/and a Cali Love that only gets used for Wildcat packages this year so we can redshirt Delton, then next year we're in the same boat of either having an average starter or an unproven redshirt freshman. If Delton has the most upside and right now isn't that far behind where the others are, see what he can do this year. He basically has half a redshirt year under him anyway since he was here for spring ball.
This logic is pretty compelling.
It's only compelling if your clairvoyant and know all of the following things with certainty
1. Delton Will stay healthy and enrolled at K-State for 4 years
2. Skyler Thompson is not as good as Delton and won't challenge for the starting job in the next three years
3. The only way to develop Delton is to play him. He can't learn the playbook and get stronger for a year and then compete for the starting job next year.
4. The Cats have no chance of being good/decent this year, and are willing to punt on any chance of winning a tumultuous/uninspiring Big12 by throwing a freshmen into the fire early.
But of course, no one knows any of those things.
I am amazed so many of you are willing to go Sam Hinkie and undercut the team in the short term for uncertain long term gain.
