College basketball ended much too soon because of the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic, but the business of roster shaping continues.

It’s transfer season, and our part of the country has had its share of player movement. On this edition of The Star’s daily SportsBeat KC podcast, we talk with beat writers Kellis Robinett, Taylor Eldridge and Souichi Terada to get the latest on early departures at Kansas State, Wichita State and Missouri.

The Shockers have been especially hard-bit by the transfer bug, with six players leaving coach Gregg Marshall’s program.
