K-State Q&A: How John Currie’s departure could impact Bruce Weber’s future

The odds of Bruce Weber returning as Kansas State’s basketball coach hit an all-time low last weekend when Oklahoma blasted the Wildcats 81-51.

Then athletic director John Currie surprisingly left for Tennessee. Then K-State surprisingly beat TCU 75-74. Now Weber’s future is once again up for debate, much like his team’s NCAA Tournament hopes.

Suddenly, things seem more complicated than ever.

If K-State beats Texas Tech on Saturday, the Wildcats (18-12, 7-10) will finish sixth in the nation’s top-rated conference and be in contention for a spot on the bracket (even if it’s only Dayton). Win again in Kansas City and the Wildcats are probably going dancing for the third time in five seasons under Weber.
