Although McCollum does seem like a winner, and is young enough for some staying power, I wonder how much his slow pace and stout defensive style will play in Lawrence?
I tend to assume KU can get whomever they want usually and have been curious if Dusty May would consider coming to Lawrence?
-
@wissox83 Was just listening to the field of 68 after dark podcast-- May's name came up for the possible job at N Carolina , they were saying they don't think he will leave Michigan as right there Football rules and not the pressure.- ---he won't leave or wouldn't leave Michigan for KU he is right where he wants to be
-
Bill Self haters catching some heat from former players and other fans. Scott Pollard was quoted saying KU fans are just spoiled, others are saying some KU fans better be careful for what they ask for; - - -some UNC fans said making the NCAA tourney is a hell of a lot better then the NIT
Other UNC fans AND Duke fans saying that KU has never had 20 loss Seasons like they have had , some saying hell there was some UNC fans were wanting Roy Williams run out of Carolina and look what they ended up with, I have to agree with Scott and others KU fans well some anyways are just spoiled they have un realistic takes - -winning NCAA championships just aren't given to you on a silver platter. there is a lot that goes into that.- -Like who is playing their best ball , the health of the team , a team's draw . bad shooting nights , ya da , ya da , ya da

Agree w/scot!
-
It look like that it will be the end
-
Following Self is daunting.
Next coach will look at the Self's winning percentage, B12 titles, Tournament Titles and wonder: "If that wasn't good enough, how will I keep this job?"
Whoever it is will probably need to do what Jon Scheyer has done in his first four seasons-- 3 ACC tournament titles, multiple sweet 16 appearances and a National Title game appearance.
Yikes.

Gonna break down when it starts to sink in. The man responsible for so much glory.

@rcjhdraft 100%
Really tough for it to end. Even tougher for it to end this way.
His impact on the program is undeniable.
There will have to be some historic commemoration at some point.
-
What makes y’all think he’s retiring? News I’m missing?
-
@rockchalkjayhawk Because there's a lot of rumors that's pointing to it happening
-
@bskeet unfortunate that he tailed off at the end but I'm just thankful. Thank god he got that second title
-
@bskeet Or he might look at the last four years and think "shoot, anybody can do that. Sign me up."

Wait… connecting the dots here… werent Selfs last words at presser “I don’t give a shit about North Carolina?”
-
https://x.com/MattNorlander/status/2036803655425208685/ May be self trying to put the fires out so he can get the announcement out himself. Not sure
-
Looks like there will be no announcement this week Even though bill put out a statement saying that information that's coming out is bad information and there's no time frame of a decision so that doesn't mean that he's not thinking about it

@focojayhawk said in Bill Self:

Well, that would certainly make most of the fan base wonder what we did to piss off the basketball gods.
