It’s early, but new Kansas State head coach Collin Klein is getting high marks from athletics director Gene Taylor for how he’s handled a tricky transition period to start his tenure.
The Mercury sat down with Taylor earlier this month for a wide-ranging conversation which will feature in multiple articles in the near future.
Klein was officially introduced as the Wildcats new head coach on Dec. 5, just days following Chris Klieman’s retirement. In the time since, Klein has been boomeranging from Manhattan to College Station, Texas, starting the process of player retention and building a coaching staff at K-State, while also fulfilling his offensive coordinator duties at Texas A&M, helping the Aggies prepare for their opening-round College Football Playoff game versus Miami.
