K-Nation (4/7/24) - Coach Nick, basketball commits, KU top plays and more

NORTHEAST KANSAS (KSNT) – This week's episode of K-Nation brought the sights, sounds and decisions of spring across several sports.

The show starts with a breakdown of a chaotic week surrounding Coach Tang as K-State's head men's basketball coach saw his name at the top of the charts of other job searches. K-Nation then goes through the rest of commitment updates: including two Jayhawks returning to Lawrence, but in different ways.

Despite falling on the wrong end of a weekend sweep, Kansas baseball held a game with a lot of importance. K-Nation showcases the Jayhawks' "Autism Awareness" game with a breakdown from Coach Fitzgerald.

The show also gives an update on both football programs as spring ball gets underway.

K-State soccer is gearing up for Year 8 of the program. Head coach Mike Dibbini has brought in a new coaching staff as the Wildcats look to finish with an above .500 record for the first time ever.

K-Nation goes through the top ten plays from Kansas men's and women's basketball teams from the 2023-24 campaign. Tune in for the biggest slams, 3-pointers and passes from the wrapped up season.
