Gene Taylor likes the way his first coaching search as Kansas State athletic director is unfolding.
"It's been very good," Taylor said earlier this week at a Catbackers event in Wichita. "I am very pleased with the interest level and the quality of the candidates. As we have talked to candidates and gauged their interest in the job there is a ton of respect for K-State baseball.
"They see it as a high-potential job where they can be successful on a regular basis. There are coaches who have shown interest on all levels — head coaches and assistant coaches.
