Alexander Era Begins for K-State | Big 12 Basketball News

Kansas State basketball is poised for a dramatic reset under new head coach Casey Alexander, who brings a winning pedigree from Belmont to revitalize the program after years of struggle.

Alexander’s fresh start is bolstered by familiar faces in transfers Brandon Rechsteiner and Jaren Schutt, both former Virginia Tech teammates, adding chemistry and local ties to the rebuild. Can this young, untested squad and new coaching staff ignite a winning culture in Manhattan? Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
