MANHATTAN, Kan. -- Outside of Bill Snyder Family Stadium stands an 8-foot bronze statue of the Kansas State football coach. Stretches of highway north of this college town are named after the man.
He has lived and worked here since 1989, and his legacy requires no explanation to the legions of K-State fans near and far.
Of late, though, they're concerned about Snyder, 77, a fixture of the sideline for the Wildcats in 25 of the past 28 seasons who, in 2015, became the fourth coach ever to enter the College Football Hall of Fame while still active.
