Eli David Huggins (b. July 29, 1998) is a young defensive tackle prospect who enrolled early at K-State and participated in 2017 spring practices, a process known as “grayshirting.”
This tough interior defensive lineman used his first year in the program to develop and now will attempt to gain playing time as a redshirt freshman in 2018.
Huggins (no relation to the ex-K-State men’s basketball coach) was a four-year letter-winner for West Forsyth High School under head coaches Adam Clark and Frank Hepler, helping the Wolverines to advance to three state playoff appearances.
