Well, this certainly isn’t the update we want to hear with the season starting in a couple weeks. This isn’t the update we want at all.

The last thing we need right now is players getting sick with games getting underway in the very near future.

Having said that, the fact that Kansas State is still practicing is a great sign that the season is still going to happen.

Nothing can stop us at this point. Kansas State needs to quarantine the sick players, let them heal up and keep them far away from the rest of the squad.
