Bruce Weber lands first K-State recruit

[tornado]

it's one of the guys Lowery was after and reportedly close to landing at SIU - so the kid climbs the laddrer a bit going from SIU to K-State
...so fallout for SIU

well I dont think this is fallout for siu. If lowery isnt fired bobo and their other recruit dont leave so siu doesnt have a scholly to give. Besides he had intrest/offers from alabama and memphis he was never going to siu

Bruce Weber seems intent on turning K-State into SIU-Manhattan, KS ..as he is not only going after SIU/Chris Lowery recruits, but he's hiring dang near the entire fired basketball coaching staff from SIU-Carbondale..
Now he's added Brad Korn to his K-State staff...

What this tends to reinforce - is that all MVC coaches like Jank, Lowery, Korn...can do better going somewhere else...

Bruce Weber completes his staff..
it was down to either fired ISU assistant Anthony Beane who would have helped bring his own son plus maybe Nic Moore to K-State, or ex-Illini player Chester Frazier..and Weber chose Frazier

That would be Doctor Frazier.

Wasn't Michael Orris his first recruit?

Orris did not commit to Kansas State until late on May 3th. Darrell Johnson committed on April 27th. So Johnson was in fact the first recruit to commit to K-State under Bruce Weber.

Orris was actually Weber's 3rd recruit at Kansas State, because Coastal Carolina transfer Sam McLaurin committed earlier in the day on May 3rd, before Orris.

Now I'm really confused. I thought Sam McLaurin was the kid who just signed with Illinois.

You are right, I got that wrong. Forget the part about McLaurin, he's at Illinois.
