Wildcats in Waiting, 2020: Hadley Panzer, IOL, Kansas

Panzer was the 5th in state prospect for the 2020 cycle to sign with Kansas State already, doing so merely hours after receiving the offer.

Hadley Panzer was waiting for this offer. And, very quickly after he finally received it, he pounced on it, committing to Kansas State less than 48 hours after being offered by coach Chris Klieman.

This sort of in-state work, coupled with the work they're doing in Texas, has raised national attention already for the Wildcats and the #EMAW2020 sweeping Wildcat Nation.
