MANHATTAN, Kan. – First-year head coach Casey Alexander added yet another piece to his 2026-27 men's basketball roster on Wednesday with the addition of transfer Brock Vice (Memphis, Tenn./Houston/Creighton/North Texas/Murray State) on Wednesday (April 22).
A 6-foot-10, 238-pound forward originally from Memphis, Vice arrives at K-State with three years of Division I experience, having played in 35 games in his time at Creighton (2023-24), North Texas (2024-25) and Murray State (2025-26). In those 35 games, he has averaged 1.9 points on 57.1 percent (24-of-42) shooting with 1.7 rebounds in just 5.0 minutes per game.
Vice saw his most significant action this past season at Murray State, where he played in 30 of 33 games for a Racer squad that won 20 games and advanced to the NIT under first-year head coach Ryan Miller. He averaged 2.0 points on 61.1 percent (22-of-36) shooting with 1.8 rebounds in 5.3 minutes per game. He scored in 17 of 30 games, including a season-high 12 points at Drake on Jan. 21, while he grabbed 3 or more rebounds in nine games with a season-high 7 twice.
Vice transferred to North Texas for the 2024-25 season, playing in 5 games for a Mean Green squad that won 27 games before falling to UC Irvine in the NIT semifinals under current West Virginia head coach Ross Hodge. He saw his first college action vs. Wayland Baptist on Nov. 7, 2024, posting 4 points and 2 rebounds in nearly 9 minutes.
Vice signed with Creighton out of high school, spending a redshirt season (2023-24) with a Bluejay squad that won 25 games and advanced to the Sweet 16 under Greg McDermott.
Vice was a highly-regarded multi-sport athlete at Houston High School in Germantown, Tenn., where he was rated as the No. 3 ranked prep prospect in the state and the No. 32-rated center in the country by 247Sports in 2023. Coached by 17-year NBA guard Mike Miller, he helped Houston capture the 2021 Class 3A State Championship over future NBA Draft Lottery pick Brandon Miller. He averaged 17.5 points and 14.0 rebounds as a senior and was one of three finalists for 2023 Tennessee Mr. Basketball by the Tennessee Secondary School Athletic Association (TSSAA).
Vice was also a standout football player at Houston High School, where he led the team in both receptions (29) and touchdowns (575) to go with nine touchdowns as a senior in 2022.
Vice's dad, Vance, is a longtime offensive line/tight ends coach with stints at Clemson (1996-98), Murray State (1999), Illinois State (2000-04), Utah State (2005-08), ULM (2009-11), Memphis (2012-15), Virginia Tech (2016-21), UNLV (2023-24) and Purdue (2024-25).
Vice is the fifth player to join the Wildcats this spring, joining 7-foot-1, 255-pound center JT Rock (Sioux Falls, S.D./Lincoln/Iowa State/New Mexico), 6-foot-7, 205-pound forward Isaiah Abraham (Gainesville, Va./Paul VI/UConn/Georgetown), 6-foot-5, 200-pound guard Jaden Schutt (Yorkville, Ill./Yorkville Christian/Duke/Virginia Tech) and 6-foot-2, 185-pound high school point guard Jaylen Alexander (Oxford, Ala./ Oxford).
