If you're feeling down about the dismal end to Kansas State's basketball season, like I am, we've got the perfect podcast to cheer you up. Standout defensive lineman and all-around great guy Ryan Mueller joined me just one day after he posted some eye-popping numbers on his Pro Day in Manhattan, making the NFL look foolish for excluding him from its draft combine. Of course, being overlooked is nothing new for the former walk-on, who talked about how he got where he is and his plans for making it at the next level, no matter what position he has to play.
Naturally, we also took a look back at his Kansas State career, including the legendary strip sack of Baylor quarterback Bryce Petty in 2013. But Mueller's impact as a Wildcat went well beyond his 20.5 career sacks and 33.5 tackles for loss that made him the most feared player on one of the Big 12's best defenses last season. He talked about the lasting impression he left on teammates and fans, especially young Kaiden Schroeder.
Don't be surprised if you're watching Ryan play on Sundays in the near future, and you can follow him on Twitter at @R_Mueller44.
