What's the definition of "highly touted"? Highly touted by BCS college football standards, or highly touted by K-State standards? So if you're using K-State standards Roberson and Sproles were both highly touted with multiple D1 offers. I consider a Delvin Warmack to by "highly touted" by K-State Standards because he was the KC area POY last year. Guys like Roberson and Sproles you could look at and see immediate upside.
Take a look at the '98 team, had guys like Bishop had the grades schools would have been lined up down the street to get him, in all proability the same with Darnell McDonald. Quincy Morgan the subsequent year (he red shirted) would have had schools crawling all over him were it not for his grades. Ben Leber was a Parade All-American and an Honorable Mention USA Today All-American. Time and time again, the true difference makers, the stud of the studs are guys who would have been 3 stars and above. LIke has been mentioned look no further than ArT and Harps, two difference makers.
The K-State fanbase has Colin Klein syndrome.
