we're getting close to spring practice. i'll start: mike mccoy at a fake patty's day party was saying it will be him and barnes next year. was he drunk? does it matter? who cares. next year will be great and what better time for speculation innuendo than now.
-
also, starting o-lineman said he rly likes dickey and our oline will steamroll everyone
-
Great thread. Can't wait to hear some tidbits. :Woot:

I hope McCoy keeps his head on straight. He has the potential to be a badasd.

not a newsflash but we look great on offense. rb, qb, ol, wr, all stud. wr: has there been a position in which we've improved so much in talent over 2 years? defensively: cb depth is poop and lb is ???
-
Starting CBs are solid imo
-
Can Alex Delton play on defense?
-
any thoughts?
Is the other team good or nah?
-
Can Alex Delton play on defense?
Is there another position that fit his skills on offense?

On FPD Will Geary lobbed snowballs at us as we were standing on a 3rd floor balcony, it was awesome!

Can't tell if serious? As long as we continue to run this offense, we will never be elite. We will continue to just sketti brain out quarterbacks into oblivion.

Don't be dumb luke

Having Strickland (if he's as good as his stars suggest), Pringle (stud), Heath (stud), Zuber (stud in making), he'll have plenty of studs to Air Sisco it out to.

LB coach?
-
Multiple sources have indicated that when spring practice opens tomorrow, expect Blake Seiler to be handling the linebacker coaching duties left by Mike Cox.
Whether this is a temporary move or something more longterm is yet to be seen.
For K-State, this is a good scenario for immediate needs. Thanks to the maturity and development of Taylor Godinet, defensive quality control and assistant recruiting director, and the new addition of Travis Britz, who returns as the replacement for former defensive graduate assistant Ross Metheny (who, it appears, is now coaching tight ends at South Alabama), the veteran staff feels comfortable letting those two oversee the defensive ends in Seiler's absence from the group this month.
*Side note: Stanton Weber may also be a new face on the coaching staff when the time comes to update the 2017 roster page*
Again, what happens after spring, we aren't sure yet. I'd consider this a dress rehearsal/interview for someone like Godinet. If that doesn't meet expectations or if someone more qualified/experienced emerges from outside, this current move with Seiler provides the luxury of Snyder having more time to potentially seek out defensive assistants early this summer before fall camp opens.
Seiler gets added experience at a new position. Godinet gets his feet wet handling a position group himself. Snyder gets more time to evaluate any and all options before deciding on the best solution. It's a win-win all around... unless of course you're at your limit with K-State coaching drama, o_O, in which case this will now roll on for at least a few more weeks/months!

Good reporting.

Head turner!
Former walk-on Trent Tanking, who might finally get the chance to start this season at linebacker, has been turning heads in the gym for years, recently power-cleaning 385 pounds, bench-pressing 350 and squatting more than 500. -- Trotter

I thought he looked really good the few times he played last year. He's great on ST.

The guy from swingers?

Fabris spent the 1997-98 seasons at Kansas State where he helped develop the Wildcats defensive and special teams into some of the nation's best. In 1998, KSU was third in the country in total defense and tied for sixth nationally in scoring defense, while in 1997, the Wildcats finished fourth in the nation in total defense, sixth in scoring defense and second in QB sacks.
Fabris' 1998 K-State punt return unit led the country (21.3 avg.), returning an incredible five punts for touchdowns and became the first school in NCAA history to return a punt for a touchdown in three straight games. Fabris also helped the Wildcats finish third in the nation in net punting (40.6 avg.) and 17th nationally in kickoff returns (23.1 avg.). In 1997, the Kansas State punt return unit finished 13th nationally at 13.0 yards per return.

But when other guys have gotten in trouble (Cre Moore), they were never kicked off team. If indeed Geary is off (he is still on roster posted on website) I am not optimistic that this is just a doghouse-that-he-can-work-out-of situation.

Poster on gopowercat saying Geary still on team.

Snyder probably gave him the option of quitting smoking or quitting the team... and my guess is he "quit" smoking... if this is the reason he was/is in the doghouse.

It's hard to blame him, we're so rich we've been doing construction on the stadium pretty much the whole time he's been a Cat.
So he probably just hangs out with the const. workers chuggin heaters and poundin MGD's.

Blase Gammon? White people name white people shame thread?

If we just used him in the wildcat he wouldn't have to remember anything. I mean, even the defense already knows the play.
But what if he has trouble with knowing his left from his right? That could be a problem.
He doesn't even have to know that. Just run it to the side where you have an extra blocker/fullback.
Ertz has been here like 20 years now why cant he just tell him what hes suppose to do

Have we ever run the Wildcat with anyone other than Winny Dims since he's been on campus?
That's the family fullback formation until he graduates.

Yes we have.

Charles Jones

Alex Delton ran the wildcat every time he played.

This.

Charles Jones
This.
Also with Jones, his Wildcat touches happened before Dimel started seeing the field. He had very few, if any, after the first few games of '15, I believe (Winny has only played two seasons, guys).
Another also, I honestly don't remember us popping the top on a pringlecat last season. Was probably too pak'd when it happened (do see 4 carries, but thought maybe reverses or something).
-
Last year was mainly DimelCat, but PringleCat did happen at least once. I believe there were a few JonesCat appearances last year as well. The previous season it was almost exclusively JonesCat.
And yeah, so far in his career it has pretty much been DeltonCat and not K-State's offense.
-
Nice.
Either way, pretty crazy that Jones is a top 10* (*think he's 10th in career rushing yards, but probably wrong) and we're upgrading at the running back position.
This offense can be really good with quite a few weapons.

yeah there was a pringlecat in conference play that was just a total wtf crudshow of poor execution. like a penalty followed by a timeout followed by a penalty or something. ok st game, maybe? not certain. it was a home game.

Looks like offensive skill players are pretty studly.
Is the offensive line going to be any good?
What about the defense? I mean, we're probably losing The Origami Rose and lost the best DE since Howard. Are we going to give up a bazillion points?

My outlook will be downgraded to 2011 from 2012 if Origami Rose is a no go

Truth. Ertz's knee was so mumped up from the butchers in Iowa it was amazing he could walk. They should lose their veterinary license.

Zuber is the fastest on the team. Dude can flat out roll. Also hearing Tyler Burns has been really impressive this spring. Has broken more long runs than any of our RBs. Lots of excitement about Patton. He is really fast. Just learning what to do, but could be special.

What about Brontae Matthews? Is he on the two-deep at least?
And what is the word on Xavier Davis, the defensive end we flipped from Oregon State? He is not listed on the spring roster.

I disagree. Geary is a potential draftee. And Risner isn't the only underclassman who could leave early after a big year (Reed, Pringle, Adams, Walker, Frantz, Beechum).
If we are as good as we hope to be, I guarantee you somebody gets drafted next year.

Whenever they choose to leave, the following guys will possibly get drafted:
DJamer Reed
Dalton Risner
Scott Frantz
Byron Pringle
Alex Barnes
Kendall Adams
Reggie Walker
Trey Dishon (his measurables will fawned over at pro day and the combine)
If you have 8 of 22 guys in the starting lineup potentially getting drafted, that's a pretty damn good team. The fact that none of them are seniors shouldn't have much bearing.
Hell, I'm struggling to think of seniors that are going to start this year, period, outside of Will Geary. Maybe Trent Tanking?

Wood has good measurables. If he has a good season, he may be a late round pick.
Navjar may get a look being the center for one of the best lines in the country. But BJ Finney didn't get drafted, so I wouldn't expect much.
If I'm a betting man, the streak stays alive because DJamer Reed could declare after this year.

Sisco is not getting drafted as a qb.
Why not?
He's not accurate enough, teams likely won't like the mechanics, injury history(especially with the shoulder), there will probably be quite a bit of better QBs on the board next year.
-
But hey, I'd love to be wrong cuz I love Sisco. I just don't think NFL teams will like him very much unless something changes. Maybe his shoulder improves as does his accuracy. I just think that with KSU QB history, it's more likely to not happen.

Sisco is not getting drafted as a qb.
Why not?
He's not accurate enough, teams likely won't like the mechanics, injury history(especially with the shoulder), there will probably be quite a bit of better QBs on the board next year.
All valid points and exactly why I said he'd need a great year, he'll need to show he can regain his passing ability after the shoulder work. As far as his accuracy goes he was more accurate his first year as a starter than Mitch Trubisky, 58% is good for a first year starter in a pro style offense.
-
He'll get a medical redshirt, so don't worry about it guys.
LOL, you're more sure of that than Sisco and the coaching staff. You must have a great source at the NCAA who hasn't even seen the application yet.

This is very good news. I am naive about Thompson and Delton's real skills, but I like all our QB options this year. Weird feeling. I have never felt this way.
Last time I was even close to this feeling about QB depth was 2000 with Ell backing up Beasley, it maybe a baby Beasley backing up Bish.

I assume Bill would say that no matter what. I'll bet he said Hubes was nipping at Klein's heels all of 2012.

yeah every single year ever the younger guy significantly closes the gap.

Well, I mean to say that the other rumblings are that our backups do not suck. The rumblings this year seem more legitish than prior years' dumb shitish rumblings, IMO.

No, he's thinking about Vandy, just mixing the story a bit.

James Franklin saw the cell phone video and not only lied about seeking the video but he also contacted the victim after he saw it, she was a recruit hostess.

I was actually thinking that. Sports programs tend to be so scrutinized, it would probably be harder for an athlete to commit a crime like that undetected. I would guess the relative conviction rate is lower, though, for obvious reasons.

He's a specimen, but I can see why Snyder (or other coaches) said he needs to mature. There have been 2 or 3 plays where he kind of got lazy at the end of the play. But looks great otherwise.

Yep. That fourth down run is a good example. I thought he could have put his shoulder down and got it.

He looks pretty mobile, maybe a bit above Jake waters. He isn't going to be a battering ram. I think his biggest weakness will be his decisions to keep the ball or let the backs take it. He made a poor choice one or twice this game.

Two of the biggest questions after this game for me:
1) Can Ertz throw at all anymore? I'm being serious about this, he struggled with consistency last year and I could see some issues arise with this shoulder surgery/loss of arm strength.
2) Snyder wasn't on the sidelines the entire second half of the spring game.

2) Snyder wasn't on the sidelines the entire second half of the spring game.
1. His struggles with consistency had a lot more to do with adjusting to game speed. I thought that was evident given that as the year progressed he was more consistent.
2. That's not unusual. I don't know if he does it every year but he's definitely done it before.
-
I agree with MIR. He got better throughout even though he dealt with the injury all year. If anything i think the shoulder repair would improve his throwing considering it got good reviews before last year.
-
Agreed. His throwing issues at the beginning of last year were very Klein-esque in that he often hesitated and let his throwing windows disappear. He got a lot better about that toward the end of last year and his throwing mechanics have always looked better than Klein.

I suspect the surgery will make his arm stronger than it was for the majority of last season while his shoulder was separated.

What type of surgery on his shoulder is he having?
QBs not the same after injury, surgery http://www.espn.com/nfl/columns/story/_/columnist/pasquarelli_len/id/2176813
via @ESPN App http://es.pn/app
http://www.howardluksmd.com/orthopedic-social-media/ac-separations-when-is-surgery-necessary/
It will probably decrease his pain.. but depending on the surgery it could also have a significant impact on his ability to throw a football.

Why do a surgery if it weren't going to make it better?

Pain? Maybe not liking the idea of opioid addiction?

I think part of it is also their approach to who the #2 is. I think their entire motivation for #2 in 2017 is "if Ertz gets injured for a half with a 10 point lead, who gives us the best chance to kill clock and get us out with a W. That person is getting as many reps as possible for 2017." They think Delton's experience and ability to run makes him the best option for surviving a game in 2017. If Ertz breaks his leg tomorrow, it might be different.
-
We should Delton in for a series in the second quarter of each game where he runs our qb-battering ram set, and bring Thompson in for two minute offense. There would be many benefits to this.

Ertz Number 1
Thompson number 2
Delton number 3
If Delton throws the ball during the season like he did last Saturday prepare to be giving 3 to 4 turnovers a game to the opposition every two weeks because the dude can't throw but he can run.
Could see Bill making him a triple option/wildcat guy but other than that he should probs ride the bench.

I see this year more as a running back year as we don't really have to rely as much as ertz simply because we have Mike "manchild" McCoy and Alex Barnes under center. I think we seriously need someone who can throw and just switch running backs when we need to run.

We will keep running with the QB. Our running backs are good, but you get an extra blocker with the QB run and I don't see us giving that up.

We have three QB's with different skill sets. My plan would allow us to take advantage of what each brings to the table.
Delton can be great in our QB run game. So, let's give him a series in the second quarter. This allows us to continue to run these plays and force opponents to prep for this, all while protecting Ertz (a huge concern). Allowing Delton to "specialize" as our running QB would also allow him to get better at this (the assembly line/specialization concept).
Unless Ertz comes from surgery 3 times better than he was before, Thompson is a better passer. Simply put, he has more zip. Now, of course, Thompson won't be able to make the same reads and decisions that Ertz does. But, in a two-minute drill, you basically have to throw out 7/8's of your playbook. The defense knows what you are going to do....much of your success (or not) depends on having a QB who can make the required throws. And, if Thompson was our #1 for this, he would get #1 reps for the two minute drill in practice, and (like Delton) would improve rapidly at this limited and specialized part of the game.
I will admit this is not conventional, but there are certain things about our situation that distinguish us from the typical situation in which coaches fart around with more than one quarterback. First, we have dramatically different QB. Most schools recruit the same type of QB that "fits" their system. Second, when coaches play more than one QB, those QB are competing against each other to be the starter, which can lead to rifts. That is not our situation. Ertz is clearly the guy; captain, team leader, proven winner, etc.. Giving Delton a series and Thompson 0-2 series a game does not threaten that. In fact, carving our a specific (and important) role for Delton and Thompson to play might have the opposite effect: They are not "the guy," but they are not discouraged because they have an important role to play nonetheless. Rather than creating a rift, it might help with buy-in from all of the team. Third, Ertz has a serious history with injuries. We have to limit his hits, particularly at the beginning of the year (when there is more to lose--in terms of playing time--with an injury). Ertz himself knows what an injury risk he is....the reason is runs very deliberately and the reason he developed the stiff-arm was an almost instinctual reaction to wanting to keep people off his body (particularly his knees).
This really isn't that crazy of an idea, even if it is somewhat unconventional. (Remember that the coaches kept talking last year about getting Delton a series, and they finally did that in the ISU game.)

(Scratches beard...)
I don't know. I didn't see the game, but I listened to most of it and saw the highlights. It looked like when Delton was playing within the offense and taking what was given to him, he had some nice passes that were on the money. The TD to Zuber was really quite good. I think that this was one of his first opportunities to get out there and push the limit a little bit. We don't know what the coaches told him to do; maybe they told him to go out there and try to make something happen if he felt like it. That gives him some tape to review over the summer.
I think when you let Delton swing it around a bit, in a no impact environment, it has a lot of benefits. Klein has some good tape to review with Alex to say, "What didn't you see there? Why didn't you look at the third receiver? Why didn't you tuck it and go?"
Do I think Thompson is the best option, long term? Sure. Next year? Eh. I'd let Delton and Thompson sit there as "OR" on the backup chart most of the year and let them knife each other a little bit in an intense competition. In the event Ertz goes down, you start with Delton and pull him if he doesn't do well.
Now, if I'm being selfish, I'd say that in 2018, if Jesse doesn't decide to exercise his sixth year, Thompson probably wins that battle. If Jesse exercises it, I'd put Skylar as your primary #2 and let Delton figure out what he wants to go do with his last season. The ball is going into Thompson's hands in 2019 unless there's a significant injury, so there's no need to make a hard decision on him today. Make him work for it.

I think you think to much Pan and should just enjoy watching the cats

We should Delton in for a series in the second quarter of each game where he runs our qb-battering ram set, and bring Thompson in for two minute offense. There would be many benefits to this.
Are you high?
Sorry MIR, but I am for real.
Step back from your Ertz Heisman campaign, and you'll see it makes some sense.
It wouldn't make sense whomever you plugged in as the starter, it's the dumbest thing you're ever said and that says a ton.
We have three QB's with different skill sets. My plan would allow us to take advantage of what each brings to the table.
Delton can be great in our QB run game. So, let's give him a series in the second quarter. This allows us to continue to run these plays and force opponents to prep for this, all while protecting Ertz (a huge concern). Allowing Delton to "specialize" as our running QB would also allow him to get better at this (the assembly line/specialization concept).
Unless Ertz comes from surgery 3 times better than he was before, Thompson is a better passer. Simply put, he has more zip. Now, of course, Thompson won't be able to make the same reads and decisions that Ertz does. But, in a two-minute drill, you basically have to throw out 7/8's of your playbook. The defense knows what you are going to do....much of your success (or not) depends on having a QB who can make the required throws. And, if Thompson was our #1 for this, he would get #1 reps for the two minute drill in practice, and (like Delton) would improve rapidly at this limited and specialized part of the game.
I will admit this is not conventional, but there are certain things about our situation that distinguish us from the typical situation in which coaches fart around with more than one quarterback. First, we have dramatically different QB. Most schools recruit the same type of QB that "fits" their system. Second, when coaches play more than one QB, those QB are competing against each other to be the starter, which can lead to rifts. That is not our situation. Ertz is clearly the guy; captain, team leader, proven winner, etc.. Giving Delton a series and Thompson 0-2 series a game does not threaten that. In fact, carving our a specific (and important) role for Delton and Thompson to play might have the opposite effect: They are not "the guy," but they are not discouraged because they have an important role to play nonetheless. Rather than creating a rift, it might help with buy-in from all of the team. Third, Ertz has a serious history with injuries. We have to limit his hits, particularly at the beginning of the year (when there is more to lose--in terms of playing time--with an injury). Ertz himself knows what an injury risk he is....the reason is runs very deliberately and the reason he developed the stiff-arm was an almost instinctual reaction to wanting to keep people off his body (particularly his knees).
This really isn't that crazy of an idea, even if it is somewhat unconventional. (Remember that the coaches kept talking last year about getting Delton a series, and they finally did that in the ISU game.)
Rotating qbs never work. It makes it almost impossible for either one to get into a rhythm. Ertz started getting more confidence/making better reads and the end of last year, and we saw how dangerous he can potentially be.

I'm just going to throw this out there.. but I don't think Delton can read defenses/coverages, dude is going to be a turnover machine if he is required to throw.
Wacky.. his stats looked nice but realistically he had 4 turnovers against 3rd/4th string defenders. Our backups were all over his throws.

i thought he looked decent at points, but you're right, he didn't appear to go through progressions at any pt and telegraphed everything
-
It's a spring game, calm down with the sweeping conclusions about our quarterbacks. I do think it's likely that Thompson is better than Delton but Delton is still only a sophomore with plenty of time to grow if they decide he's the guy(they won't). Chill out

Why do you think ksucats will have no draftees?
I am just saying we better hope we do. There isn't an obvious pro prospect on this team yet (at least that I know of) who looks like they can get drafted next year. That's not to say someone won't shine and get attention, but if no one does emerge as a draft-able prospect, then I bet our season ends up with about 8 wins or so.
As it stands now, Risner is our only hope at a draft pick next year, and he would have to leave early.
I disagree. Geary is a potential draftee. And Risner isn't the only underclassman who could leave early after a big year (Reed, Pringle, Adams, Walker, Frantz, Beechum).
If we are as good as we hope to be, I guarantee you somebody gets drafted next year.
That's why I said as of now. Right now, Risner is the only one who would likely get drafted of those players you listed.
ESPN's Mel Kiper Jr. ranked Kansas State redshirt junior T Dalton Risner as the No. 5 underclassman draft prospect at his position.
Risner (6'5/300) has excelled at two positions along the line in his collegiate career. After taking a redshirt as a freshman, he bolted out to make 13 starts at center in 2015. Kansas State HC LHC Bill Snyder and staff then decided to shift him over to right tackle. Lo and behold, he crushed that transition in short order, once again starting 13 games during the past season. At the end of the season, he was named a First Team All-Big 12 performer by the coaches, ESPN, Phil Steele and Pro Football Focus.

Outside of the normal concern / worry about injuries (namely Jesse Ertz), the biggest question mark on the team - IMO = Will Geary.
Yes, I also have some concern about the LB position, but going into the summer, Geary was at the top of my list.
It’s not that Ray Price couldn’t step up his game (or one of the young guns), but it sure would be a big bonus to have Geary back with the team (Geary earned honorable mention Big 12 honors this past December). Hopefully Price will step up his game in year 2 after juco.
Good News: I’ve heard that Will Geary is taking care of business (classes) this summer and is expected to be eligible to rejoin the team this Fall.
I have a friend that receives some good inside info from time to time. Well, he was the individual that told me Will Geary was not on the team this past spring, which I passed on to Wabash (and the sh#t storm began..ha).
Here are the three tidbits of information that I thought was noteworthy (sorry, nothing earth chattering):
1. The offense is performing at a very high level this summer, doesn’t even seem like the same offense (the rock is getting passed all over the field). As reported by many, Ertz is just a stud.
2. Mike McCoy has only gotten better …he’s an absolute BEAST. I feel for a 180 lb D-back that has to bring him down (go low and live…ha).
3. And as already noted, Will Geary is expected to be in purple this Fall.
EMAW !!

If the O-line is good and Ertz stays healthy this could be the best offense since Ell and Sproles.

LHCBS dropped the hammer in a player’s meeting.
The Legend told some players to pick up their stuff and move to the visiting locker-room.
For work ethic & character issues.
Sorry, no names, but a couple of the players are (or were) starters (per my source).
Apparently, the visiting locker-room is the last stop = improve / work harder OR find yourself off the team.
Not exactly good news, but maybe the Legend’s move will light a fire under some players that need it.
As others have suggested in recent weeks/ months, I believe the Legend knows that this team can be VERY VERY GOOD, but he also knows that it’s going to take a lot of hard work to get there (the only way Coach Snyder knows). ALL of the players need to be rowing the boat, no room for players that don't want to grab an oar.
The Legend delegates much more than he did in the past, we all know this… but despite a battle with cancer at age 77, when it comes to driving the bus, the Legend’s hands are still clearly on the wheel.
In Snyder I Trust !
Oh and my source again reiterated how good Ertz is looking this summer (Thompson is progressing).
I admit, I like to drink the purple Kool-Aid, but I believe good things are going to happen this fall (barring injuries).
I better fade into the shadows before Snyder’s secret service team catches me.
GO STATE !

some deranged KU fan kidnapped Ertz and some cats fans and made them do unspeakable things to one another to stay alive and the cats fans sacrificed themselves to keep Ertz and our season alive and even though Ertz is scared for life he is going to play lights out all year in order to make sure those cats fans did not die for him in vain.

I disagree. Although I do look forward to the day when if someone says "I'm gay", the response is "so what". We're getting closer to that point all the time. But for now, there are still many young people (and frankly mature adults) who still are too scared to "come out". The more exposure to this, the less there will be need for it. It's a good thing. Not a sit down and be quiet thing.

Those first few OBz press conferences when there's like 30 extra new media types there is gonna be something.

Three observations.
First, according to CBS, Scott is one of only two openly gay college football players right now. http://www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/kansas-state-ol-becomes-second-openly-gay-football-player-on-fbs-level/
Second, if the Cats play Arizona in a Bowl game, then those two guys might actually directly play against each other. Wow!
Third, the openly gay player for Arizona might have the most hilariously ironic name for a gay man ever in human history.

It's the first time in the history of college football that an openly gay man has played college football. If the LGBTQ community wants to be treated like the rest of us, they shouldn't have to continue feeling like it's necessary to hide their sexuality. Scott is at the forefront of changing that.

Also, Scott Frantz is a badass. I admire that dude. (watch video) http://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/19983391/scott-frantz-kansas-state-wildcats-details-telling-teammates-gay
Brought a tear to my eye.

Any further information on Dimel? Would be a huge loss.

Frantz moving to FB, then we will have the first openly gay player to score a TD.
Any truth to the rumor that Winston is seriously injured? That would suck.
He trippin' so much, fans gonna begin to think he done fell off!

Mike McCoy as the big back and fill in some of Winston's spots?

Fullback, d tackle, and corner are three spots where we are thin. Crap. Dimel is a hell of a loss.

I am not sure if I would put too much stock into the tweet.
1) Can still be looking forward to what the team does, even if you aren't gonna play.
2) With the wizard at the helm, this could all be some sort of psy-ops.

This is a top story way up here, actually the first listed "top story" on the local sports radio website, but of course underneath the ultimate top story about hottest baseball wags.

It was very good though, at some point it will click for the others and they'll have a lol at steffy's expense.

That can't be a baseball wag if she left the baseball player for a 5'5" wide receiver.

Outside of the normal concern / worry about injuries (namely Jesse Ertz), the biggest question mark on the team - IMO = Will Geary.
Yes, I also have some concern about the LB position, but going into the summer, Geary was at the top of my list.
It’s not that Ray Price couldn’t step up his game (or one of the young guns), but it sure would be a big bonus to have Geary back with the team (Geary earned honorable mention Big 12 honors this past December). Hopefully Price will step up his game in year 2 after juco.
Good News: I’ve heard that Will Geary is taking care of business (classes) this summer and is expected to be eligible to rejoin the team this Fall.
I have a friend that receives some good inside info from time to time. Well, he was the individual that told me Will Geary was not on the team this past spring, which I passed on to Wabash (and the sh#t storm began..ha).
3. And as already noted, Will Geary is expected to be in purple this Fall.
EMAW !!
geary bear update
