The big news yesterday, sliding in not long after JT posted the Slate, is that Kansas State will be participating in the Hall of Fame Classic November 22 and 23 at the T-Mobile Center in Kansas City. Bruce Weber’s charges will be part of a field which will include the Cincinnati Bearcats, Arkansas Razorbacks, and. umm. the Illinois Fighting Illini.
That means that Weber might face the school that fired him, and K-State might face an old pal: Illinois coach Brad Underwood. That’s not the only narrative that can come into play; as we’ve noted on numerous occasions, K-State and Cincinnati used to be one of the greatest rivalries in college basketball for a time back in the day, and any time we get to face off against those folks who don’t know how to pronounce Arkansas properly is always a good time too.
