Kansas State coach Bruce Weber is rounding out his coaching staff by hiring former Illinois standout Chester Frazier as an assistant coach.

Frazier will earn a base salary of $135,000. He joins former
Southern Illinois coach Chris Lowery and Alvin Brooks III as
assistant coaches, while Brad Korn will be director of basketball
operations and Jimmy Price the strength and conditioning coach.

Frazier has spent the past two years playing professionally in
Germany. He led S. Oliver Baskets Wuerzburg Basketball Club to the
semifinals of the Bundesliga playoffs this season.

After playing for Weber at Illinois, Frazier served as a
graduate assistant and video coordinator for the Fighting Illini
between stints playing in Germany.
