MANHATTAN
Expectations are a hot topic before the start of every basketball season, but Wesley Iwundu wants no part of the discussion.
The Kansas State junior wing watched in horror last year as many of his teammates proclaimed the Wildcats to be Big 12 championship contenders with Final Four talent before playing in a single game together. That roster could not back up its talk and limped to a 15-17 record, its worst season in a decade.
This time around Iwundu, one of five returning scholarship players, is expected to lead a young roster into uncharted waters.
