Buzz: How Kansas State football and basketball are navigating the portal

Our Kansas State buzz comes via a message board post at KSO and digs into all sorts of relevant topics in Wildcat land. Both the basketball and football team are covered in the recent edition, including who we expect to leave for the portal.
Two football players recently announced they’re leaving K-State and we examine that.

We know, especially since head coach Chris Klieman was not bashful about it, that the Kansas State roster is also being tampered with and contacted by other programs. And the Wildcats are also looking inward at their own roster and deciding who still needs to leave.
