Nope:
Last season: 25-12, 10-8 in Big 12 (Elite Eight)
Bruce Weber and the Wildcats return all five starters from last year’s Elite Eight team. Dean Wade and Barry Brown are K-State’s top players, but the beauty of this team is they have different guys who can hurt you. Remember, Wade wasn’t healthy for the NCAA tourney run a year ago, but this team showed a togetherness and a toughness that made the Wildcats a tough out.
