John B. Price IV (born July 20, 2002) is a talented young running back from Blue Valley High School who will likely be ineligible and not play in the 2024 season amidst a strong backfield.

Price played at the same high school as current K-State wide receivers Andre Davis and Sterling Lockett and walk-on linebacker Beau Palmer.

He prepared under head coach Allen Terrell at Blue Valley, where he was considered the 11th best all-purpose running back in the class of 2024 by Rivals, while ESPN ranked him as the fourth best overall prospect in the state of Kansas.

Price earned honorable mention at the state level from The Wichita Eagle, Sports in Kansas and KSHSAA Covered as a senior. Learn more about him in this GoPowercat podcast.

As a junior for the Eagles, he was an honorable mention All-State selection. In his final two seasons, he rushed for 1,979 yards and 20 touchdowns, and caught 35 balls for 253 yards and four scores. Price also competed in track and field for the Tigers.

Price selected K-State regional offers from Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Nebraska and Oklahoma State, as well as interest from Iowa State and Oklahoma. His primary recruiter was his new position coach Brian Anderson, assisted by recruiting director Taylor Braet.
