Bruce Weber has made it clear he wants to add “rebounding physicality” to Kansas State’s basketball roster next season.
That makes this weekend an important recruiting opportunity for the Wildcats, as they are set to host one of the nation’s top junior-college rebounders on an official visit.
His name is Austin Trice. He is a 6-foot-7, 230-pound sophomore forward, and he is coming off a season in which he averaged 12.6 points and 12.1 rebounds for Wabash Valley College in Mount Carmel, Ill. That type of production makes him a priority recruiting target for K-State.
