  "account": "Manhattan, Kansas - November 29, 2025: Kansas State Wildcats wide receiver Larry Porter IV, a redshirt freshman, is preparing for the upcoming season. Standing at 6-1 and weighing 195 pounds, Porter has the potential to make a significant impact on the team. He is a business administration major and chose Kansas State over other offers, including those from Kansas, Northern Iowa, Tennessee-Martin, Western Illinois, and Cincinnati. Porter's primary recruiter was former position coach Matthew Middleton, who praised his dedication and progress since the summer. Despite not playing in 2025 due to the new classification scheme, Porter remains on scholarship and has four years of eligibility left.",
