K-State Football: Wildcats land big-time in-state QB

To quote warrior, philosopher John ‘Hannibal’ Smith, “I love it when a plan comes together.”

A plan, my friends, came together in Manhattan, Kansas today. Every K-State fan with even a passing interest in sports already knows this part, but I’ll go through the formalities for the sake of tradition.

Avery Johnson, a 4*, 6’2, 175 pound quarterback out of Maize High School, in Maize, Kansas (a suburb of Wichita) gave Kansas State his verbal commitment for the 2023 recruiting class.

Rivals considers Johnson a 4* prospect (5.8, mid-tier 4*), the best player in Kansas for the 2023 class, and the 3rd best dual-threat quarterback prospect in the nation.
