Kansas State hires Casey Alexander as the new head coach, replacing Jerome Tang who returns to Baylor. With the Wildcats currently 15th in the Big 12, we analyze the impact of this coaching change on the 2026-27 season.

We discuss roster implications, transfer portal dynamics, and depth-chart battles, including the search for a versatile backup point guard. We also project K-State's floor and ceiling in a competitive Big 12 landscape.

Key topics include the transition from Tang's physical style to Alexander's spaced-out Belmont system, recruiting retention concerns, and predictions for upcoming matchups.
