Bill Self is a future Hall of Famer. He’s also now 2-7 in Elite Eight games. Been a 1-seed 7 times. Only made 1 Final Four in those 7 years.

KU should not renew his contract and go after Pop, if he would ever leave the Spurs.

Assuming you're serous here, this has got to be the hottest Bill Self take on the internet.

I love bashing KU and I do not doubt your story on Self, however, Kansas is a VERY successful program even if they can't get beyond the elite 8 routinely. Also, I can't think of anything more foolish than releasing a coach of Self's caliber. That would be FAR worse than what NC State or Indiana did. KU is a storied and relevant program in a relevant conference and Self has won the conference championship for the umpteenth consecutive time. They will and should stick with him for many more years.

Hope so! I to think that the rug is not a good in game coach. Hell of a recruiter but that dumb smirk does not qualify as coaching.

Looking at their roster none of their starting 5 may be back for next season. Theres a good chance someone's regular season champs streak will end next year.

While I agree the Chickens should be down next year, I don't see how you think their entire starting 5 might not return. Graham and Mykhailiuk will almost certainly be back. KU's starting lineup should look like this: Graham, Vick, Mykhailiuk, Bragg, Azubuike with Colby off the bench. While that lineup certainly isn't anything great, I long ago gave up on the Big 12 not pissing its pants. Also, I'm sure Billy Boy is going to call every potential grad transfer and try to get them to go play for the flagship. I wonder if all these chokejobs hurt KU in recruiting? If you're a 1 and doner, do you really want to almost certainly not make the Final 4?

how can a team that wins it's conference so consistently also underperform so consistently as well? Hmmmmm what does it all mean?

They also have a top 10 forward and top 50 guard in next year's class.

They get all butt hurt

I know, isn't it great? He gets them one national chamionship and wins a poorly coached league, then changes his basketball philosophy from Roy to Cal and can never duplicate the success and they all bow at his feet for eternity of "almost there" basketball.

[shock]

GUYS GUYS GUYS (and @Shocker Mama:) What ever you do, DONT POKE THE CHIKEN KOOP. THEY ARE ARMED WITH CHAMPIONSHIP TROPHIES AND SOUND LOGIC.

Actually, this is.

I'd put the local constabulary ahead of it though.

Haha... that is some funny shite right there.

[WuShock16]

I bet that same Jayhawks fan is also a Royals fan. If a Yankees fan went to him and said that Royals fans should bow to the Yankees fan because the Yankees have won 27 World Series, how quickly would that Yankees fan get laughed out of the room?

This is true. Graham and Svi aren't going anywhere. Graham to the NBA? Not with what I saw last night. Svi is basically a role player now. They will also have Malik Newman from Mississippi State, who was at one time thought to be a lottery pick. The one big question mark for them will be who is the true point guard? I can't say I see one that is currently on the roster or that has signed.

With all that being said, they will probably lose 10-11 games and be awarded a 2-seed with their first two games at IBA.

I just went over to phognet for some light reading and couldn't get access. A little help Jamar, what are they saying over there?
