100% true. Read it in an article in TCU's alumni magazine just a few years back. Might have had something to do with the prior post about nap time. But that's what I read in print anyway.
So LT and Walter Payton were both ours to be had?
As crazy as it sounds, yes that is correct. Not many know the Walter Payton story, but it's true. The dang Jacksonville train station screwed us.

You know you're snake-bit when even a damned railroad station is messing with you.

We just beat Cincy and Georgetown for a PG
DaJaun Gordon - Rivals #105 - Beat out offers from Ole Miss, Nebraska, Xavier, SMU, Colorado State, DePaul, New Mexico and Tulsa
Montavious Murphy - Rivals #139 - Beat out offers from Texas A&M, Houston, SMU, VCU, FGC
David Sloan - Beat out offers form Cincinnati and Georgetown.

Out of HS, Sloan also had offers Louisville, Iowa State, Memphis, Missouri, Eastern Kentucky, Western Kentucky, Wright State. So he wasn't a nobody that went to a JUCO. However, his rating dropped upon attending JUCO. Although JUCO ratings are suspect, and they may change now that he is showing up on recruiting sites. He would have been consider a pretty good get out of HS in 2017 comparing to what K-State has had up until this year.

For reference recruits in the last few years 247sports rating: If possible I included their HS and JUCO rankings

94.33 - Malek Harris (2014)
93.55 - DaJuan Gordon (2019)
91.00 - Stephen Hurt (2014 JUCO rating)
90.33 - Xavier Sneed (2016)
90.08 - Montavious Murphy (2019)
90.01 - Jevon Thomas (2013)
89.82 - Makol Mawien (2015 HS rating)
88.68 - Dean Wade (2015)
88.62 - Shaun Neal Williams (2018)
87.39 - Marcus Foster (2013)
86.57 - Wesley Iwundu (2013)
86.28 - Goodnews Kpegeol (2019)
86.16 - David Sloan (2017 HS rating)
85.49 - Cartier Diarra (2016)
85.48 - Barry Brown (2015)
85.30 - Nigel Shadd (2017)
84.96 - Levi Stockard (2017)
83.84 - Kamau Stokes (2015)
83.60 - Neville Fincher (2013)
83.49 - Dante Hales-Williams (2015)
83.33 - Isaiah Maurice (2015)
83.00 - Ron Freeman (2015)
82.78 - Austin Trice (2018 JUCO rating)
82.78 - Antonio Gordon (2019)
82.61 - James Love (2016)
81.37 - Mike McGuirl (2017)
80.00 - David Sloan (2019 JUCO rating)
NR - Brian Patrick
NR - Stephen Hurt (2011 HS rating)
NR - Austin Trice (2016 HS rating)
NR - Tre Harris (2014)
NR - Nigel Johnson (2013)
NR - Makol Mawien (2017 JUCO rating)

You can also see how wide a range recruiting rankings are. There are players rated higher, that never did anything, and those rated lower, that were good finds.
