Kansas State

MILWAUKEE -- This weekend marks a homecoming of sorts for Bruce Weber.

The Kansas State head coach was born and raised in Milwaukee where he grew up watching legendary coach Al McGuire lead Marquette University to a pair of Final Fours and the 1977 NCAA Championship.

Now, he'll get to see Marquette up close and personal when his No. 12 Wildcats visit his hometown for a nonconference matchup against the Golden Eagles Saturday afternoon.

"I had to tell a lot of people, 'Go find your own tickets,'" Weber joked of his return earlier this week during a media session in advance of the game.
