Kansas State will make NIT case at Big 12 Tournament

MANHATTAN

Dean Wade isn’t hiding his thoughts. He hopes Kansas State plays in the NIT.

“That would be very positive,” said Wade, a freshman forward. “That would let us send the seniors out on a high note, and it would be good for the whole program to have some postseason play.”

Wesley Iwundu, a junior wing, agrees. Though he played in the NCAA Tournament as a freshman and hopes the Wildcats can return there this season with an unlikely championship run at the Big 12 Tournament, he doesn’t look down on the NIT.

“It would mean a lot, because we have a lot of young dudes,” Iwundu said.
