MANHATTAN
At Kansas State, football players wait for feedback from their coach.
Bill Snyder can tell a lot from what he sees on Saturday, and he supplements that knowledge with statistics. But he does not issue final judgment until he watches several replays of the game.
For that reason, Jordan Willis was curious to hear his evaluation earlier this week. The junior defensive end from Kansas City, Mo., made enormous plays against Louisiana Tech, including 2 1/2 sacks and a fumble recovery, so he expected a positive review. Still, he was not certain. Snyder remembered the big plays, but mostly ignored them on second viewing.
