Summary
Fifty-five days until kickoff, and we’re spotlighting Kansas State’s rising star Kyle Rakers — a 6’4”, 304-pound redshirt sophomore from Norwalk, Iowa, who’s already making waves with his blend of brains and brawn. After redshirting his freshman year to bulk up, Rakers saw limited snaps last season but earned Academic All-Big 12 honors. A three-year starter at Dowling Catholic, he was nationally ranked by ESPN and hailed as one of Iowa’s top prospects, helping his team score 42 touchdowns as a senior. Now at K-State, he’s poised to compete for a backup center role — and he’s already got his eye on a future in accounting.
