Before Justin Eichman played right tackle at Butler Community College, he was a Kansas State football fan living in Topeka.
He was at Bill Snyder Family Stadium when K-State upset Texas 45-42 in 2006 and rushed the field when it was over. Six years later, he celebrated the same way when the Wildcats clinched the 2012 Big 12 championship by beating the Longhorns in Manhattan.
Those are some of his favorite memories. So it is so surreal for him to think about what his next trip to K-State's football stadium will feel like when he runs onto the field as a member of Bill Snyder's team.
