Five-star tight end Linkon Cure is set to announce his college decision July 1 during the 247Sports Football Recruiting Show, which begins at 5 p.m. ET. You can watch Cure’s commitment live in the video player below.
Kansas State is considered to be the favorite for the in-state product out of Goodland High School as the Wildcats own all five of the 247Sports Crystal Ball predictions. Cure ranks as the No. 2 tight end and No. 26 overall prospect in the Class of 2025 Top247 rankings.
Cure’s other finalists include Oregon, Texas A&M and Kansas. Cure visited each of them from Memorial Day to now, with Kansas State getting the final official visit on June 21.
Chris Klieman’s Wildcats have won battles for in-state kids lately with Avery Johnson being one of the more notable, but even he was not ranked as highly as Cure, who would in fact go down as the highest-rated player to ever commit/sign with Kansas State, edging Class of 2000 lineman Chris Boggas. Recognizable names on that top-10 list includes quarterbacks Josh Freeman (No. 6) and the aforementioned Johnson (No. 7), who projects to make a leap into superstardom this fall in the Little Apple.
Wherever he chooses, Cure projects to be an immediate impact player come 2025. He is a star across multiple sports for Goodland. To wit.
