07/18/22 - RB *Deuce Vaughn, Jr/2023, Kansas State

It no longer bothers Deuce Vaughn that most of the colleges in his home state of Texas ignored him as a high school recruit, but he still considers himself an underdog because of his size. Turns out, it's hard to forget about someone telling you rather bluntly that "you're too small to play college football." "That happened numerous times," Vaughn said this week at Big 12 Media Days. "I don't want to name any schools, but I had several Power 5 coaches tell me I wasn't a fit for their program, because they were looking for a different demographic as far as a running back. They wanted someone bigger. I still use that as a chip on my shoulder, because I know some people will always have doubts about me." That may, indeed, be the case. But it's getting harder and harder to find a college football expert who doesn't believe in Vaughn.

So what if he is only 5-foot-6 and 172 pounds? He led the Wildcats to eight wins last season as a sophomore by rushing for 1,404 yards and catching 49 passes for 468 yards. So versatile is Vaughn that he has already earned consensus All-American honors as an all-purpose player. When he first arrived at K-State, coaches talked about trying to limit his touches or using him as a scat back because they weren't sure if his body was ready to handle a traditional workhorse role. But those fears are long gone. He has proven himself too talented to take off the field and too durable for a pitch count. "No, there is not a limit," K-State coach Chris Klieman said. "We are going to keep doing what we did with him last year. We're going to use him as the featured back and he can be an every down back." - The Kansas City Star
