Our only promising non-three star recruits in the past couple of years:
Clinckscales
Derricott
Ramirez
M. Clark
All gone. Why does this happen? It's so frustrating to be excited all off-season for these guys just to see them never play and leave halfway through the season. Tanner Wood was another one I don't see on the field ever.

Clink isn't gone and neither is Dericott. Our starting running back was a 4 star also, as well as Tanner Wood. But please, go on.
-
who needs 4 stars when you've got 5 hearts?
-
We take chances on a lot of 4 stars that may not qualify elsewhere... This means that they usually don't put the effort in the class room, which translates to not putting in the effort on the field. A 5* 1 heart player will never see the field for us.

:facepalm:
-
Good solid walk-ons and DITR's is what moves the needle with the majority of the K-State fanbase.
They latch on to those "family" and "red shirt" stories like a tick to a dog.

Do you even watch the games? Wood has played quite a bit on special teams and I remember seeing him get meaningful snaps in the Alamo Bowl.

We are way better than Alabama at finding sucky 4*s.

This. K-State (Snyder) probably cares less than just about any other program in the country about recruiting rankings coming into CFB. Some programs play their 4 or 5* players just because they spent a lot of effort recruiting them. Snyder doesn't GAF; whoever looks best in practice that week will play.

i watched all the games except for maybe two or three of them and i never once saw tanner wood

Teams play their high ranking busts because they spent time and effort recruiting them?
-
And they win bowl games!! Besides who the hell whats to spend time in Manhattan Kansas besides a bunch a walk-ons ... Be happy you guys ( :Lurk:) Old balls is leaving and that right soon. and then :flush: :flush: :flush: :flush: :flush: :flush:

It's always hard breaking down rollingplains posts. I know he's trying to say something, but I can never make it out. I can definitely feel the rage he has for us tho. :frown:

It's kinda cute tho, tbh... They keep telling themselves that things will take a dive when HOFCBS retires. They fail to realize, however, that we'll have no trouble finding a great successor willing to take the keys to the new $70MM Vanier Complex that will be not only the top facility in the Big XII, but one of the top 3-4 in the nation.
:blush:

I think I saw Wood as a DL on one play in the bowl game......first time I have seen him, but whatever.....

Yeah about 99.8% sure he never played special teams.

Because they spend the time and effort they have a hard time believing / don't want to admit that they have players better than those guys at the position. They think every game is when the kid will turn it around and prove he's better than the 2*s and walk-ons.
Mind you, I'm not talking about the best programs in the country. Their coaches are a little smarter than that, plus they tend to have almost nothing but 4/5* players...
