Kansas State quarterback Avery Johnson was slated to headline the team’s media day ahead of their spring showcase—but when the cameras started rolling, he was nowhere to be found. What followed was pure chaos. Coaches offered vague “he’s unavailable” responses. Teammates diverted questions. Then came the leaks. Anonymous sources within the athletic department hinted at a growing divide between Johnson and the offensive coordinator, who reportedly clashed over system changes and playbook control. Johnson, known for his fire and on-field leadership, had grown increasingly distant from staff during recent workouts, one insider claimed. Fans pieced together footage showing Johnson walking out of a team meeting just days prior. Social media lit up with #FreeAvery and #WhereIsAvery trends. Rumors spread of a potential transfer or even a suspension. But K-State officials shut down all questions, claiming “internal matters.” The silence was deafening, and fans began showing up at practice gates holding posters with Johnson’s name. No public statement has been made. Johnson’s social media has gone dark. Something big is happening in Manhattan—and everyone’s watching to see who speaks first.
