When Vaughn was coming out of high school, the two colleges he primarily considered were Arkansas and K-State. He visited Arkansas first and liked the school. He was born in Fayetteville and his father was once an assistant coach with the Razorbacks. It was a good fit. He could see himself there.
But he thought he was a better match with the Wildcats and loved the plan their coaches had for him. Unlike other teams, they wanted to use him as a traditional running back despite his size. K-State won Vaughn over on his visit, and he committed the following week.
He told K-State coach Chris Klieman that meant he wasn’t going to take any more visits or consider switching allegiances, no matter what.
“Coaches we had never heard from before started calling at that point, but Deuce understood what his commitment meant,” his father said. “He was locked in. The best players always are. In my experience, players who commit and stay committed and never waver and stay at one school the whole time they are in college seem to be better than the ones that don’t.”
