It’s taken a while, but I’ve done the math – not my strong suit – and come up with a number.
7,381.
That’s the amount of yardage Kansas State lost last season when quarterback Jake Waters and receivers Tyler Lockett and Curry Sexton finished their senior years.
In most places, that number would elicit widespread panic.
Waters passed for 3,501 yards and 22 touchdowns and rushed for another 484 yards. Now he’s gone and there are four quarterbacks – none even close to being proven – vying for his spot.
Lockett caught 106 passes for 1,515 yards and 11 touchdowns.
