None of you are very good. I have coached much better players than everyone in this room. I don’t need any of you.
Those are the first words Kansas State receivers remember hearing from Andre Coleman when Bill Snyder hired him away from Youngstown State to be their position coach five years ago.
That came as quite a shock for a talented receiving corps that featured the top statistical wide out in K-State history (Tyler Lockett), a 1,000-yard slot man (Curry Sexton), an all-conference selection (Tramaine Thompson) and a future pro (Deante Burton). But they certainly made an impression.
