Bruce Weber bullish on future as K-State recruits gain national respect

Even though Bruce Weber is focused on the here and now of basketball season, the Kansas State coach couldn’t help but look ahead when a pair of incoming players rocketed up the national recruiting rankings this week.

“It brings positive attention to your program,” Weber said. “People want to know that we’ve got a good player, that we have got a good future ahead of us.”

K-State’s basketball future suddenly seems brighter than it did a few weeks ago. That’s because Rivals now lists two high school seniors who signed with the Wildcats last November among their top 150 players for 2019.
