Kansas State football coach shows great class toward opposing player

Bill Snyder is not Jace Amaro’s head coach.
Snyder runs the Kansas State football program, whereas Amaro is a tight end for Texas Tech.
In fact, when they faced off Nov. 9, Amaro tallied 67 yards on nine receptions against Snyder’s team. Kansas State won the game by a score of 49-26, but Amaro left an impression on the head coach.
Because a week later, after Amaro got injured in a Texas Tech loss to Baylor, Snyder sent a hand-written letter expressing support for the player.
And as you can see, Amaro very much appreciated the gesture.
THE upmost respect to Kansas State and Coach Snyder, great program and an even greater coach. Huge fan. pic.twitter.com/fjeflBLU47
