After a drawn out recruitment, K-State finally added Jacardia Wright, a 6’0, 200 pound 3*(84) athlete out of Decatuar, Illinois to the 2019 recruiting class. The multi-positional Wright will play running back for the Wildcats. Wright also held offers from Iowa, Michigan State, and Minnesota.
Evaluation
Wright is an elite athlete. One of the major hangups in his recruitment was position. Wright wants to play running back, other teams wanted him as a safety. Kansas State offered him a chance to play offense, and ultimately, that helped bring the Illinois native west to Manhattan.
