Recruiting Scoop: Insight on 2026 and 2027 Kansas State targets
Our Kansas State recruiting scoop moving forward will now be via a message board post at KSO and sponsored by our friends at MyPerfectFranchise.net. We thank them for their partnership and supporting the Wildcats and our site at On3.
Though K-State has made their way to 14 commits on the football side, Jerome Tang and the Wildcats are still looking for high school addition No. 1 on the basketball side when it comes to the Class of 2025. One target has already visited Manhattan and may again soon.

Pivoting back to football, K-State just landed a five-star in Linkon Cure, a speedster in RJ Collins and an explosive touchdown-getter in three-star running back Monterrio Elston of Arkansas. Other targets remain on the 2025 recruiting board, including four-star defensive end Kade Pietrzak.
But it is never too early to peek ahead and examine some targets in the Class of 2026 and the Class of 2027. The Wildcats were busy in June closing on their 2025 targets but laid the groundwork for future cycles, too.

I have voiced some question marks in the past about defensive end commit Dalton Knapp and what he ultimately can end up being in Manhattan. But I’ve learned more about the future K-State lineman that has me a bit more upbeat bout his potential.
