When he agreed to return to Kansas State as a graduate assistant last month, Shane Southwell didn’t expect many fans to make a fuss about his new role on Bruce Weber’s coaching staff.
So you can imagine his reaction when his Twitter account exploded with positive messages for an entire week.
“I was very surprised,” Southwell said. “I honestly didn’t think anybody cared, especially with me only being a grad assistant. I guess that just shows the appreciation K-State fans have for what we accomplished during my four years here with the likes of Will Spradling, Martavious Irving, Rodney McGruder and Jordan Henriquez.
