- Kansas State was not always the solid program they are today, they used to be so bad that they were dubbed the worst program in college football, but Bill Synder built them up and made them great. Besides a few rough years, Kansas State has been a consistent winning program but Chris Klieman is hoping to take them to the next level and make them the premier program in the Big 12. Today, I want to talk about the rise of Kansas State and how all this happened, enjoy!

I want to upload 85 more times in 2023, what topic should I add to the list?
The rise of Virginia tech football
Rise of UNLV football especially if they're able to make the conference championship game!
Tulane and SMU
Teams that are famous for eliminating a team from making it to the playoffs..like Utah
The rise and fall of Mel tucker bro please he was supposed to be the next great Spartan coach
K-State is a pretty easy team to root for even if you're not a fan of them personally.
not really, no
@@georgejohnson8674that’s garbage
@@georgejohnson8674yet here you are
@@utubedude2842 to say it’s not easy, yeah, great observation genius 👍

I'm a Kstate fan
Klieman was probably the perfect guy to come in after Bill Snyder
I'm excited for Avery Johnson in the future he pretty much won the Texas Tech game for us with 5 rushing TDs
Collin Klien made me a fan and I'm glad he's the OC
Mizzou fan here. I watched an earlier video on the rise of Kansas State football. I remember how bad that K State was. The Barbara Uhling years lasted way too long for Mizzou. About the only win that the Tigers could count on was when we played Kansas State. When K States savior came along we could no longer count on a K State win. About 3 years ago I watched a video on the great K State turnaround. I always felt sorry for them. When I heard the testimonials of the players that made the great change to a winning program I 😢 teared up. I really am happy that K State is now a solid team, and I am happy that Mizzou doesn't play them every year. I wish the Wildcats the best of luck. Vaughn
As a die hard kstate fan I am excited to watch this
Great video. I know Oklahoma Sooners glad they didn’t have K-State on the schedule this year. K-state definitely is a solid winning program knows how to knock off some big programs with less talent. I have nothing but respect for K-State.
Bill Snyder also created the powercat and remodeled their jerseys after the Dallas Cowboys
The players from "The Foundation" voted on the Powercat. He told an artist that he wanted a logo like Iowa, and after he saw he hated it. However, the players seemed to like it so Snyder put it up for a vote..and that is how the Powercat came to be. Snyder showed that he is not a connoisseur when it comes to art, because everyone seems to like it and ". A total of 39 schools in 18 states now use the Powercat as their athletic logo." There are 9 schools tht use the KU logo.
"Snyder had arrived at K-State in 1988. As his teams started winning, K-State went from barely profiting from its licensing to ranking among the top 15 nationally."
Snyder also pushed for Stadium and training facility upgrades. Snyder didn't actually create the Power Cat logo of course , but he had it commissioned. The power cat is a great logo and Power Cat is a great name. Snyder was also a workaholic and led by example and he cared deep about his players and the city of Manhattan.
I was a student at K-State and graduated in 1965. I came from Germany in 1965. My years living on a farm just outside of Manhattan were the most wonderful ones in America. Kansas will forever have a special place in my heart. New Jersey, where I've lived most of my life is OK but does not come close to Kansas.
I have first-hand experience as how it is to suffer when your school is at the bottom of the totem pole in college football. At least they were excellent in basketball with all white teams to boot.
Chris Klieman is an excellent coach but I will never understand his decision not to kick the field goal in overtime against Texas.
K-State had their freshman quarterback rattled; had all the momentum. I'm sure Bill Snyder would have decided to kick the field goal, give the team a chance to win and ultimately play in Arlington.
But the future looks bright with goldillocks next year as quarterback. Can't wait for that. Very excited. There will be magic in the air with receiver Brown in there along with others.
Yo , bro , Bob stoops , came from Coach Snyder’s coaching staff … c’mon … man … Brent venebales , former kstate player, and coach … Coach Snyder , is the greatest college football coach of all time , College Hall of Fame!!!
Not to mention Mike Leach, Mark Stoops, Mark Mangino and so many more
I only keep track of K-state because of my former Juco teammates. So y’all keep an eye on Kobe savage.
We’re glad to have him. He’s a beast
He's a baller. Really happy to have had him these last two seasons!
Thank you!! As Kstate fan it’s nice to see someone finally give us the respect we’ve been needing for years!!
Thanks for talking about my cats! They are really underrated and they deserve to be talked about more! Much respect ✊🏻
Absolutely a wonderful video, thank you. I went to school during Lynn Dickey days! Purple bell bottoms were my prize possession. 💜
Love this video, anytime KState gets talked about by non KState fans I love to see it, great work definitely subbing and watching more content, Id love to see even more big 12 football videos 🔥
Thanks for the upload. Great info on Klieman & the current state of the program. Missouri would be a great future video, they’ve seen somewhat similar lows & high as the ‘Cats.
Awesome video! EMAW!
As a k state fan myself, I plan to go there next year and I am very excited for the future.
Thank you for the video. Enjoyed it.
Enjoy Klieman while you have him. He was an awesome coach and NDSU and a great leader, I certainly miss him. I root for K-State every week.
Really great video Scott! But there was a big omission around 11:40 -
The reason why Klieman got "over the hump" is because he fired the offensive coordinator at the end of the 2021 regular season and promoted Collin Klein.
If you look at the stats, the difference is night and day. Under Messingham (old OC), K-State was one of the worst teams in the country in terms of scoring efficiency. Under Klein, it's now one of the best.
Edit: Turns out it's mentioned around 16:15 , but the rest still stands -- Klein is a great OC
The only real blip on Kliemans resume so far is his faithfulness and unwillingness to fire Messingham. He really only did it due to the massive amount of backlash he was receiving from fans and donors over Messingham. He was super committed to keeping him. Glad he finally succumbed to the pressure. KSUs offense has been a top 25 unit since CK took over calling duties, and I foresee them becoming a consistent top 10 offense over the next three years with Avery Johnson at the helm.
Awesome Video. Go Cats!
An extremely well-done video. As a K-State alum and fan, I really appreciate this. Many thanks, Mr. Fisher.
When you mentioned beating Stoops’ OU teams, you could’ve mentioned Stiops and his entire staff coming from assistant positions under Snyder. I know you weren’t doing the whole Snyder story, but it’s a thought to share. I enjoyed your video. Thx.
Solid video! EMAW
I lucked into the absolute worst modern time to go to KSU from a football perspective, 2004-2008. As far as I’m concerned, as a student who cared deeply about KSU FB, Ron Prince’s name will live in infamy. Hopefully students now can appreciate the good times knowing there’s no guarantee they continue.
EMAW😈💜 great video!
Am a die hard Kansas State fan. My grandfather played for Kansas State back in the day. EMAW
Who is your grandfather?
Been a Wildcats fan for years! Even meeting bill Snyder numerous times and him coming to my wrestling matches when I was younger. I hope they become a program to fear in the future
Bill Snyder is 1 of the all time greatest coaches ever…amazing
I think Prince is from Junction City, a town 40 minutes west from Manhattan. That might have been a factor as to why he was hired.
Been a kstate fan since I was little they’ve been a great team
These are really cool videos. Do Virginia tech next please
As a Ku fan I’ll watch it even tho it’s gonna be tough
Not today
Jake waters was a dawg at k state
I don't think Jake Waters was quite the same after his shoulder injury. He was definitely one of my favorite K-State QB's.
People always forget JW. It's not even arguable that he was the most prolific pure passing QB that KSU has ever had. His 2014 season was remarkable. If he had three years in the program, he would hold arguably every passing record at KSU. Sadly, he only got 2 years. Dude was gunslinger.
As an Oklahoma fan out of all the teams, im happy to not play again. Kanasas State is the only one.
I cant count the number of times they have ruined something for us because they are always well coached, have good fundamentals, and make few to no mistakes.
And the fact they're not in the top 10 or even 15 in recruiting speaks volumes about the development.
2020 season missed Skylar Thompson so true freshman Will Howard took over and COVID ruined the roster. Hard season.
The 2020 Covid season should definitely have an asterisk. K-State and everyone else struggled to put together a lineup every week. Bad year for everyone.
I've been a fan of K-State since 98' and I must say the biggest downfall I've seen with the program is the ability to get to the post-season, but lack of winning in a bowl game. Sure, there's been a few games, but you look at teams like Oregon, Ohio State and Alabama last year and it's super frustrating. To be elite, you need to beat the elite. It's high time we get there under Klieman!!
Afraid that Avery will follow Colin to TAMU..he’s got a bright future. All he has to do is make the offense go and with the Ag defense he’s going to be a star ⭐️!
Avery Johnson to Wesley watson Is the future
It the possibility of having a north and south division sometime soon in the future being considered? With all those new teams having joined and Utah also coming, would that not make a lot of sense? With so many teams right now, it will be impossible for top teams to play each other every year. Things could have turned out differently this year had KSU played against OU and OSU against Texas.
The North could have eight teams and the South as well with the winner of the North playing against the winner of the South. And you could resume the oldest rivalry of all: KSU playing Iowa State every year. Wow!
5:11 Seeing Tyler Lockett with hair scares me
Bro Kansas state has been a problem and it’s bc of bill Snyder lol
That is just dumb
@@JH-rk9gd clearly don’t know fcb
How many teams can you make a video about there impossible rise until you realize it’s completely possible
So darn close to knocking off Texas this year. Sucks that it didn’t work out. Totally sucks for K-State players and fans.
We don’t have to talk about Ron Prince
Once Oklahoma and Texas leave K-State Should Be one of the Perennial power house teams in the Big 12.
We can beat ou but Texas has been hell
👇🏽 people who got here in less than a second
K state, Iowa, and Utah are all the same
This my team 😤🫡
Kansas st and Kansas have become respectable. Both are set with great quarterbacks and I would guess many other players.
Butchered king Felixs last name pronunciation lol
Its really not impossible kstate is a football school now they dont have the massive market but its most definitely produced some special players and sent many to the NFL honestly i think baylor turned around 2010 to modern day is more impressive
Now if they just stop wearing alternate jerseys and helmets. Every time a picture came up with a different helmet I knew that we lost. 😅😢😢
Sinnot is so much like Gronk and Giddens is much much btr than Vaughn...... ya i said it. Vaughn is going to fail in the NFL mark my words
The only reason he would fail is under utilization. He was a terrible fit for Mike Mcarthy. If you put him in a system like Reids or Sean McVay, good luck.
@@EngineeringUSA idc where he goes hes not that good and hes certainly NOT Darren Sproles.... not even a comparison. sry, but have to agree to disagree here with you. He was overhyped
And now the fall
MIZ!
Late video because we all know that it’s going to be one of the two Oklahoma schools that will make the trip to Dallas on December 2nd
I’m glad Snyder is out the building. Holding the team back
Without Bill Snyder K State football ⚽ literally wouldn't exist right now bro, when they hired him if he didn't work he was the last hire, they were going to be shut the program down.
That’s just dumb
@@justinwhittaker7471 he was holding him back his final years though. Bill just got old. I will never discredit what he did for the program which was one the greatest turnaround in sports but he was terrible
@@JH-rk9gd really apparently you don't your history on K State Football, the program was so bad people weren't showing up and if you don't have so many people in the stands the NCAA will shut the program down, K State football was at that point
I think the rise of Kansas would be more interesting
.460 all-time winning percentage, and 10 ten win seasons since 1989. We have very different ideas of what a consistent and underrated program is.
What a joke. This is obviously a Homer! Its KANSAS that has made impossible rise
I am a mizzou fan lol. If Kansas wins this weekend they will get their video next week. KU failed me last weekend
Both have imo. Ku is just more recent
Must be a millennial
They are 15-20 under Lance
@@RexBell303 I’m think Lance will move on within 2 to 3 years!
Utah is joining the Big 12... so I'm sorry to say, K-State won't be taking the top spot in the conference. That'll belong to the Utes and Whittingham 👍
How bout y’all win a conference game first
@chasefrench1864 Utah will smash you. You're a basketball school. No room to talk on the football front. You beat a proven overrated Oklahoma team... congrats 👏 🤣
I can see a kstate Utah championship game every year
We will see. Utah is in for a rude awakening. The Big 12 will be competitive top to bottom. You better bring your A game in football because we all know your basketball program will be in the bottom part of the conference.
@crane9224 I'm not a Utah fan BTW. But people also severely under-rate the PAC this year. 29-5 non-con this year says a lot. I can see K-State and Utah being huge rivals in the year to come though. So I agree with you there. Utah had a down year, missing starting QB, RB, TE and a bunch of top defensive players. Hopefully for them that's not a yearly trend
