K-State lands junior-college receiver Khalil McClain, without a head coach

Kansas State is currently searching for a new head football coach, but that didn’t stop the Wildcats from picking up a recruiting commitment on Tuesday.

Khalil McClain, a 6-foot-4 receiver from Hutchinson Community College, announced his intentions to play for K-State with a post on social media.

The timing is awkward, given that Bill Snyder retired as K-State’s football coach on Sunday and athletic director Gene Taylor is now actively searching for his replacement.

It remains to be seen how K-State’s next football coach will treat any of the team’s current commitments, but there is a lot about McClain for K-State’s next football coach to like.
