  Chris Klieman makes it clear to his younger players as soon as they arrive at Kansas State that there are two traits - above even raw physical ability - that will get them on the field faster than anything. Running back Deuce Vaughn and quarterback Will Howard, plus three other true freshmen, got the call last Saturday in the Wildcats' season opener at Bill Snyder Family Stadium in large part because they showed in a short time that they fit the bill. "The main product of that, as we've seen, is Deuce. He had a great game, some explosive plays, and he has some things that you can't teach. For him to come in, game one, as a true freshman and do the things he did, it just shows how mature he is, and how much he's really bought in and how much film he watched during the week."

Vaughn said after the game that attention to detail definitely fast-tracked his climb up the depth chart to the No. 2 spot behind senior Harry Trotter. "Without a doubt, just diving into the playbook as soon as I got it," Vaughn said. "I signed my letter of intent around December and I ended up getting the playbook and my iPad and stuff in February, so just right then I took it day-by-day, chunk-by-chunk, just went through and looked at everything and didn't get ahead of myself. "I looked at all the installments they had in 2019 (preseason) camp, and I knew if I did that I would give myself a great opportunity to be able to play early." Vaughn's first career carry went for 12 yards, and he had a 24-yarder on the same drive, then finished it off with a 3-yard touchdown early in the second quarter to put K-State up 14-7. "It is honestly surreal," Vaughn said of the touchdown. "Last night I went to bed dreaming about scoring my first touchdown in Bill Snyder Family Stadium and playing for the Wildcats. - Topeka Capital Journal
