Mekhi Miller Mekhi Miller 6'1" | 180 lbs | WR Blue Valley North | 2022 State KS – Blue Valley North, 6’1”, 180, WR (Missouri)
Miller held multiple Division I offers, but he ultimately committed to the Tigers in January. Despite his commitment, Miller is still receiving offers. He had a monster season in 2020 and he should be in line for another big year.
Caden Crawford Caden Crawford 6'4" | 235 lbs | LB Lansing | 2022 State KS – Lansing, 6’5”, 240, LB (Iowa)
The No. 1 linebacker in the state made his commitment the Hawkeyes this past February. His physicality and frame will fit right in with the Big 10 Conference. Crawford has the capability of being a very good edge defender at the next level.
Landon Dean Landon Dean 6'4" | 230 lbs | DL Frontenac | 2022 State KS – Frontenac, 6’5”, 235, DL (Oklahoma State)
Dean is an intriguing prospect. The future Cowboy could play either tight end or defensive end at the next level. He posses the skillset to be a solid all-around tight end, and he can cause disruption off the edge.
Tyson Struber Tyson Struber 6'2" | 180 lbs | ATH Canton Galva | 2022 State KS – Canton-Galva, 6’3”, 190, WR (Kansas State)
Struber’s athleticism jumps out on film. I think he’s a player that could be used in multiple ways on offense by the Wildcats. He can play out wide or in the slot, and he has the speed to get the ball on jet sweeps.
Sterling Lockett Sterling Lockett 5'11" | 160 lbs | WR Blue Valley | 2022 State KS – Blue Valley, 5’11”, 160, WR (Kansas State)
The Blue Valley product chose to follow in his family’s footsteps and continue the Lockett Legacy at K-State. He has the capability of being one of the top slot receivers in the state. Lockett should see an uptick in targets this season.
Silas Etter Silas Etter 6'3" | 200 lbs | ATH Eudora | 2022 State KS – Eudora, 6’3”, 210, WR (Kansas State)
Etter had the earliest commitment out the bunch. He announced his commitment to the Wildcats in early December. Eudora favors their run game, but when the ball is thrown Etter’s way; he makes highlight worthy catches. The Wildcats will have a nice trio of receivers coming in next year.
