Nuggets on Kansas State (in terms of inside intel) is relegated to our message board at KSO but still spills out the best information on the Wildcats in the market. We share thoughts on week two, dip our toes into the basketball waters and provide some insight on non-conference football scheduling.

It’s another week without Dylan Edwards. The K-State back will miss yet another game according to Pete Thamel of ESPN. He has yet to play an offensive snap this season, and the Wildcats’ running game has suffered in his absence.

We know we’ll see Joe Jackson and DeVon Rice. Anybody else? They’ve dialed back Avery Johnson on the ground. What could transpire at home today versus Army?

Not long ago K-State head coach Jerome Tang sent out a press release to the media and public going over the new players in his program. That told me that the chase to fill more roster spots was complete, and I think it is.

However, did the Wildcats run into some bad luck along the way?

Part of it was me finding out that Kansas State had some open spots on their future non-conference football slates. Part of it was me being bored and intrigued about who K-State could play in the coming years.

But, I did some research, and found out some potential opportunities for non-conference power four contests for the Wildcats.
