Almost 11 months after senior Markus Howard’s record-breaking 45-point performance against Kansas State, Wildcats’ head coach Bruce Weber vividly remembers Howard picking apart his defense.
“We really didn’t have any answers for him. He got going. He got on some runs. He made some tough shots,” Weber, Kansas State University head coach, said. “Obviously, there were a lot of fouls called in that game and he got a lot of free throws (19 of 21), but that’s to his credit.”
Howard’s decision to stay at Marquette for his senior year gives coaches like Weber one more year of game-planning against the robust player.
