Will Kansas State guard PJ Haggerty play vs. Kansas?
PJ Haggerty will be a game-time decision for the matchup against Kansas, Kansas State’s interim coach Matt Driscoll told CBS Sports’ Jon Rothstein earlier on Saturday.
Rothstein also reported that Haggerty was able to practice with the Wildcats on Friday. This is a good sign for Kansas State, as the team will also monitor his status ahead of the contest.
