The sides are on track for 16 hearings, the most since teams won 10 of 16 decisions in 1994.

MANHATTAN, Kan. (AP) — Heisman Trophy finalist Collin Klein is returning to Kansas State as an assistant coach. The former star quarterback will coach the same position with the Wildcats after spending last season as the quarterbacks coach at Northern Iowa. Klein was director of recruiting operations, a quality control coach and offensive graduate assistant at Kansas State after his playing days.

Klein’s spot on coach Bill Snyder’s coaching staff became available when Del Miller announced his retirement earlier this week after 45 years in coaching and 20 years at Kansas State. Klein guided the Wildcats to the Big 12 title during the 2012 season, when he was a finalist for the Heisman Trophy. He also won the Johnny Unitas Award while going 21-5 in his career.

IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — Iowa has hired North Dakota State offensive coordinator Tim Polasek as its line coach and Kelton Copeland as its wide receivers coach. Hawkeyes coach Kirk Ferentz announced the additions to his staff on Tuesday.

Polasek had spent the past three seasons at North Dakota State, an FCS powerhouse that beat Iowa in Iowa City in 2016. Copeland had been with Northern Illinois the past four years, coaching the wide receivers. He spent the previous two seasons at South Dakota.

Polasek replaces Brian Ferentz, who was promoted to offensive coordinator last month. Copeland will take over for Bobby Kennedy, who left the program after the receiving corps struggled mightily last season.

JUPITER, Fla. (AP) – St. Louis Cardinals pitcher Alex Reyes has a sore right elbow and will have an MRI. The 22-year-old right-hander his major league debut last Aug. 9 and was 4-1 with a 1.57 ERA in five starts and seven relief appearances. His fastball averaged more than 97 mph.

Reyes, a candidate for the final spot in the starting rotation, had been feeling soreness in the days leading up to camp, St. Louis general manager John Mozeliak said Tuesday. Reyes’ participation on the Dominican Republic’s World Baseball Classic team is uncertain.

Adam Wainwright, Carlos Martinez and Lance Lynn are projected as the first three St. Louis starters, and Michael Wacha and Mike Leake also are candidates. Reyes could start the season in the bullpen in an effort to limit his workload.
