K-State Hires Trey Scott as General Manager
Dec 11, 2025 | Football
MANHATTAN, Kan. – Trey Scott, who worked 11 years in player personnel with NFL clubs and the last three years as a coaches and executives agent, has been hired as the football program's General Manager, head coach Collin Klein announced Thursday.
Scott brings a unique, well-rounded prospective to Kansas State in the new era of college athletics as he has traveled throughout Division I football as a scout for two NFL clubs before handling contract negotiations over the last several years.
"I have had a long career in football, but this is different – this is Family, and this is home," Scott said. "I am excited to work with quality people and be aggressive in this era of opportunity. Thank you to Coach Klein for trusting me to help advance our program. I can't wait for my wife and kids to become a part of this special community."
In his role in Manhattan, Scott will manage the composition of the football roster and, in consultation with Klein and assistant coaches, determine strategies to retain current student-athletes and attract prospective student-athletes.
"Trey is a huge part of where we are going to take K-State in the future," said Klein. "With his NFL experience and roster management background – along with how he builds relationships – he is the perfect fit."
After concluding his playing days as a K-State quarterback in 2010, Scott began in professional football as a pro personnel assistant with the Washington Redskins in 2011. He received an opportunity to work for the Oakland Raiders in 2012 and moved to Las Vegas when the franchise was relocated in 2020. Starting as a Midwest scout of the Raiders, Scott earned multiple promotions, culminating with the title of assistant director of player personnel where he oversaw all aspects of the personnel department.
Scott left the Raiders in 2022 to lead the coaching and executives division of Rep 1 Sports before the company was acquired by Excel Sports Management in 2023. For Excel Sports, Scott represented some of the top college football and NFL coaches in addition to front office members with his primary focus of handling their contract negotiations. He also worked as a consultant for athletic departments around the country, helping schools navigate the new era of college athletics in revenue sharing, NIL and spending of revenue sharing dollars.
A native of Shawnee, Kansas, who played at Mill Valley High School, Scott earned dual bachelor's degrees in business management and supply chain management – in addition to a minor in economics – from Kansas State in December 2010. His family includes his wife, Lauren, daughter, Allie, and son, Jack.
