The next great Kansas State quarterback may just be its current quarterback.
Jesse Ertz will get the opportunity to join the likes of Michael Bishop, Jonathan Beasley, Ell Roberson, Collin Klein and Jake Waters as one of the best passers to play for K-State coach Bill Snyder this season. All he has to do is follow in their footsteps.
As a returning starter, he already has something in common with all of them. The best K-State quarterbacks each spent multiple seasons in command of the offense. The Wildcats historically have their best seasons when Snyder returns his leading passer from the previous year.
