**Kansas State Wildcats Add Blue Valley Linebacker to 2025 Recruiting Class**
The Kansas State football team has added a local player to its 2025 recruiting class. On Wednesday, Maguire Richman, a 6-foot-2, 200-pound linebacker from Blue Valley, announced on social media that he will be joining the Wildcats.
A three-star recruit, Richman chose Kansas State over Iowa, where his older brother Mason plays as a starting offensive lineman. He also had scholarship offers from Memphis, North Dakota State, Toledo, Tulsa, and Wyoming.
Kansas State secured Richman’s commitment after his official recruiting visit to Manhattan. This marks another recruiting success for the Wildcats, who have been rapidly adding new prospects this month. With Richman, the Wildcats’ 2025 class now includes nine recruits.
He is the second in-state recruit, alongside Derby defensive back Martel Jackson. The current class also features offensive lineman Will Kemna (Jefferson City), linebacker Weston Polk (Coppell, Texas), quarterback Dillon Duff (St. Louis), wide receiver Adonis Moise (Ellenton, Florida), defensive end Sawyer Schilke (Kearney, Nebraska), defensive end Dalton Knapp (Grapevine, Texas), and defensive back JoJo Scott (Lakeland, Florida).
