Kansas State lands Charlotte WR Arrion Concepcion

Kansas State has struck twice after a busy weekend on the recruiting trail. After adding junior college defensive tackle Patrick Tackie just an hour and a half before, high school wideout Arrion Concepcion has also committed to K-State.

Like Tackie and a few others before him, the recruitment of the wide receiver was a major sprint. The senior wide receiver de-committed from NC State November 17. Kansas State offered him November 18 and worked quickly to schedule an official visit.

The Charlotte natives official visit was this weekend. He was joined by Tackie and two other high school receivers Quinten Gibson and Larry Porter. Could another commitment be on the way? It is possible as we rapidly approach the Early Signing Period. A major tip of the hat goes to K-State wide receivers coach Matthew Middleton and the Wildcats recruiting staff for making Concepcion feel at home in a short period of time to commit to Kansas State.

In total, the senior held offers from Charlotte, Coastal Carolina, East Carolina, Georgia Southern, Indiana, Liberty, Louisville, Marshall, Memphis, Miami, NC State, Temple, Troy and Virginia Tech. Over the summer he took official visits to NC State and Virginia Tech.

If the last name sounds familiar, his older brother KC Concepcion is a wide receiver at NC State and played against K-State in the Pop-Tarts Bowl. Last season the older Concepcion was voted ACC Rookie of the Year after totaling 839 yards and 10 touchdowns. This season he has 59 catches for 479 yards and five touchdowns for the Wolfpack.

In total Arrion Concepcion is commitment No. 22 for Kansas State in the 2025 recruiting class. He joins illon Duff, Weston Polk, Will Kemna, Martel Jackson, Adonis Moise, Dalton Knapp, Sawyer Schilke, JoJo Scott, Maguire Richman, Dominic Mitchell, Brock Heath, Linkon Cure,  RJ Collins, Monterrio Elston, Ashton Moore, Noah King, Logan Bartley, Brad Stanyer and Darien Whitaker and Tackie.
