FINAL RECORD
21-12, 10-6, third in Big 12.

WHAT WENT RIGHT
Not a game passed when F Michael Beasley didn't do something as a freshman to leave fans in awe. The gifted phenom set numerous Big 12 and Kansas State records, and finished with 28 double-doubles, an NCAA freshman record. He teamed with F Bill Walker to give Kansas State its most productive tandem in history, and the two carried the Wildcats to their first NCAA Tournament appearance in 12 years as well as their highest finish in the Big 12.

WHAT WENT WRONG
Although Beasley was consistently solid and Walker was steady until a late-season swoon, the remainder of the Wildcats was wildly inconsistent. Usually, when production was lacking from other members of the squad, Kansas State lost despite whatever numbers Beasley generated. One problem was first-year coach Frank Martin had difficulty trimming his rotation and giving other players enough minutes to grow comfortable with their roles.

QUOTE TO NOTE
"I have had no time at all to think about my decision [whether to turn pro]. And I'm not going to start thinking or contemplating on what I'm going to do for another couple of weeks." -- Kansas State F Michael Beasley.

 Before he committed from memphis he was down to three schools, Memphis, K-state and Washington. He told reporters that if Calipari left memphis that he would not attend memphis. Now that he is back open to recruiting i wonder if we are number one on his list, and if he does commit to us this would be a huge signee.

K-State got screwed hard with this seeding in the NIT tournament.  Why is it that the # 9 team in the Big 12 (Baylor) gets a 3 seed, while the #4 team gets a 4 seed?  I personally don't think that KSU was good enough to be in the NCAA tourney this year, but come on 5-11 Baylor a higher seed than 9-7 K-State.

Does the NIT have a LOSER'S bracket? We lost on Wednesday to Illinois St. I thought we were done. Apparently we played another game last night against San Diego St and LOST..... I am VERY confused.

 The end to that game was crazy!! I just wish it could have been on TV, oh well.  Sandiego State crushed Weber State, but honestly i don't know how good Weber State really is.  Either Way here we come! If we have any CaliCats represent for the visitors team.

As announced a little while ago, KSU was selected to the postseason NIT for the 2nd time in 3 years. They are the #4 seed in a VERY tough bracket which includes Davidson, St Mary's, South Carolina, and our first round opponent, Illinois St.

Our first game is March 18 at 8pm EST at Bramlage..... GO CATS!!!
