Kansas State and Kansas players, coaches and athletic officials took the stage for this week’s Big 12 Football Media Days event at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Tex., and they had plenty to say.

You’re going to hear some of it on today’s episode of SportsBeat KC, The Star’s sports podcast.

Wildcats football coach Chris Klieman shared thoughts about incoming transfer quarterback Adrian Martinez. And KSU athletic director Gene Taylor addressed realignment.

So did Kansas athletic director Travis Goff. Each athletics boss describes his respective school’s strengths during the current round of realignment. You’ll also hear from KU quarterback Jalon Daniels, who spoke about the boost of last year’s victory over Texas and to his own professional aspirations.
