Bruce Weber’s basketball team far exceeded his expectations in last Friday’s 80-42 win over Emporia State.
“Oh, it was way better than I ever dreamed,” Weber said. “I told (Athletic Director John) Currie, if we lose, don’t be surprised. I mean, I had no idea. We had struggled in the scrimmages against our inner-squad between ourselves. They probably played better than we anticipated and maybe Emporia wasn’t as good as we thought … We’re just so unknown.”
The Wildcats will welcome another Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletic Association opponent in Fort Hays State for their second and final exhibition game of the season.
