Our Kansas State buzz comes via a message board post at KSO and digs into all sorts of relevant topics in Wildcat land. The K-State basketball team is not yet complete. Actually neither is the basketball staff at this moment despite the hires of Bill Peterson and Chase Driscoll.

Jerome Tang and company have work left to do in Manhattan and are busy at it. The recruiting trail once again led to some developments in the last week. The Wildcats hosted a visitor that they are now trending for at this point.

In addition to that, K-State would still have two spots remaining should they land the visitor, land German wing Elias Rapieque and hold onto Tyreek Smith. Will they be successful in doing so? I don’t know. Smith’s status is currently up in the air.

But don’t be surprised to hear them connected with a point guard from Germany, too.
