Baylor basketball has hired former Kansas State assistant coach Alvin Brooks III to the same position, the program announced on Friday. Brooks replaces Grant McCasland, who left Scott Drew's staff to become head coach at Arkansas State last month.

Brooks has been at Kansas State since Bruce Weber arrived in 2012, including as part of a Big 12 title-winning team in 2013.
