Admit it, you thought the Wichita State Shockers would crash and burn after the departures of guards Fred VanVleet (Toronto Raptors) and Ron Baker (New York Knicks) to the play-for-pay ranks. It didn't happen. Gregg Marshall's "Play Angry" bunch went 30-4 (its fourth 30-win season in the past five years) and is in the field of 68 for a sixth straight season. Marshall's deep squad features two first-team All-Missouri Valley players in 6-foot-4 redshirt freshman Landry Shamet and 6-8 sophomore Markis McDuffie and has no seniors. Can Wichita State do some damage in the Big Dance?
