What we’re hearing on Kansas State (in terms of inside intel) is relegated to our message board at KSO but still spills out the best information on the Wildcats in the market, both from a team and K-State recruiting standpoint.

It is also brought to you by Aer Lingus – which have the travel packages for you if you want to see Kansas State take on Iowa State in Ireland in 2025. Make sure to visit Cats2Ireland.com today and check out the opportunities.

Do we have a verdict on big man Tyreek Smith? If not, when? We dish everything we know regarding his appeal for another year of eligibility. He joined K-State last year in hopes of being able to play during the 2025-2026 season. Will he get that chance?

As of now neither Andrej Kostic or Elias Rapieque has made it to campus. Is there reason for concern? Or do the Wildcats anticipate their arrival in the near future? We received some information regarding their status.

We have documenting and reporting on it all along but K-State isn’t finished adding to the roster for this upcoming season. We have a completed non-conference basketball schedule but not a complete team. Welcome to college athletics in 2025.

The Wildcats have been in search of another big. A handful of targets have surfaced, such as Brice Dessert who opted to go the professional route rather than pick Kansas State or Kansas. What’s the most recent information regarding the chase?
