Last Saturday, the K-State football team ran onto Sporting Park’s field for their annual spring game. For the first time in four years, however, No. 16 wasn’t among the purple and white jerseys, reminding us once again that Tyler Lockett’s time with K-State has come to an end.
With Lockett gone, a gap has formed not only at the wide receiver position, but also in the return game where Lockett will remain as one of the best in K-State and Big 12 history.
Last weekend’s game may have hinted at who on head coach Bill Snyder’s squad can step up and close the gap.
