KR: Joshua Youngblood, Kansas State
The future is bright in the Little Apple with coach Chris Klieman, and a big reason why is the kind of young players he's bringing into the program in the mold of Youngblood. The freshman receiver, who was a quarterback in high school, returned just 13 kickoffs this season, but three of them went for touchdowns, against Texas, Texas Tech and Iowa State. He became the first freshman to be named the Big 12's Special Teams Player of the Year.
