Not only is this a big deal, think about the state of the program only 28 years ago when Bill Snyder took over. To think there have been 23 straight years of players being drafted from Kansas State after being named the worst college football program in the nation... mind blowing! Bill Snyder’s turnaround of our football team is truly remarkable.
