I hope this isn't just a belated April Fools.
Calling it a work in progress, Kansas State athletics director Bob Krause confirmed to The Manhattan Mercury today that contract extension talks are on-going with Wildcat football coach Ron Prince.
"This is something that started last fall," Krause said. "We had over 200 recruits and family members in this past weekend (for the spring game), and obviously we want to send the right message to recruits that we're very committed to this program and the staff. There's a plan in place and the plan is being worked."
Krause said that Prince was given a five-year contract when hired in December of 2006, which included an automatic additional year after the first season. That leaves Prince with a current K-State contract that would extend through the 2011 season. Krause declined to give any particulars to the current contract discussions in terms of length or salary, but hoped that an agreement would be made before the start of summer camp.
