For the second time in three days, Kansas State has flipped a Minnesota commit. Hutch Community College safety MJ Graham has announced his commitment to K-State.

Graham’s recruitment played out extremely similar to how the recruitment of yesterdays Kansas State commit Derrick Salley did. The safety visited K-State the same day as Salley early this month and received his offer. Shortly after the visit in Manhattan, he went to Minnesota on an official visit and announced his commitment to the Golden Gophers. Graham announced his de-commitment from Minnesota last night, just a few hours after Salley did the same and committed to Kansas State.

The junior college safety now makes it multiple junior college prospects in the Wildcats 2026 recruiting class. Every recruiting cycle in the Chris Klieman era, the Wildcats have added multiple junior college prospects. Could there be a third junior college player added in 2026? Stay tuned.

The Oklahoma native has had a productive two seasons for the Blue Dragons. He has really broken out this season which has led to more schools showing interest in him. This season, he has 31 tackles including one sack, one fumble recovery, six interceptions, two pass breakups and a blocked kick. In his two seasons at Hutch Community College, the safety has eight interceptions.

In total, the safety held offers from Western Michigan, Eastern Michigan, Old Dominion, Coastal Carolina, Liberty, Texas State, Eastern Kentucky, Florida International, Arkansas State, Prairie View A&M, Alabama State, UCF, Michigan State, West Virginia and Minnesota in addition to Kansas State.

Graham is commitment No. 20 in K-State’s 2026 recruiting class. He is the fourth prospect to commit to the Wildcats this month joining Salley along with high school defensive tackles Adrian Bekibele and Carnell Jackson. According to the Rivals Industry Ranking, he is currently ranked the No. 37 junior college player in the country and No. 4 safety at the junior college level.
