Episode Details

Kansas State has some momentum on the football recruiting trail. Last weeks, Coach Chris Klieman’s program picked up a commitment from standout running back Dylan Edwards from Derby and soon hope to be the landing spot from another Wichita-area product, quarterback Avery Johnson from Maize.

On today’s SportsBeat KC, Kansas State beat writer Kellis Robinett talks all things Wildcats, including how the men’s basketball roster under new coach Jerome Tang is shaping up.

Also, the BIg 12 has a new commissioner. Brett Yormark, CEO of Jay Z’s Roc Nation, an entertainment agency, will succeed Bob Bowlsby. What is the advantage of departing from the traditional college adminstrator route?
