Their in-state rivals might have the firepower to take the top spot in the Big 12 though. If you don’t think basketball is back at Kansas State, then you clearly didn’t watch a game from the “Octagon” last season or witness the freakish power of the “Fear the Beard” campaign in honor of Jacob Pullen’s facial hair. Frank Martin’s passion, intensity and borderline insane fire has revitalized the Wildcats program and made them one of the more intimidating match-ups in college basketball. Losing Denis Clemente will hurt at first while Martin and his staff adjusts to not having the one-man fastbreak to spark the rest of the team, but the Wildcats return star guard Jacob Pullen (beard or no beard). If Curtis Kelly becomes an elite Big 12 player, Kansas State should be considered a Final Four contender.
