Bruce Weber wanted to make a change, several of them actually.
As the Kansas State basketball coach watched and analyzed the way his team played at the conclusion of last season, he decided the Wildcats needed to strengthen their interior defense and improve their half-court offense. So he hit the road for ideas.
He traveled to San Antonio to study the Spurs. He flew to Atlanta to get an up-close look at the Hawks. He returned to Manhattan filled with NBA knowledge he hoped would help K-State this season.
The trips ended with Weber deciding to make some major schematic adjustments.
