A lot of KU fans wanted Coach fired.

Mar 22, 2025 06:33 PM #5

Might be good for Self and Texas but who do we get?

Mar 22, 2025 06:38 PM #6

I would be beyond shocked if this happened. I'd bet money on Sean Miller or Tommy Lloyd getting that job.

Idiots! And thankfully it won't happen...

@BShark we have a lot of them!

Apparently this is where it came from,

The cofounder of Rivals, 247 and On3…Bobby Burton started another site called On Texas Football. It was posted on there by former national recruiting expert for 247 & On3 Gerry Hamilton who now works at OTF.

Yeah I've seen the posts from Gerry and basically all he said is Texas contacted Self's agent. He has also mentioned other candidates etc

Are we hearing anything from the portal side of things? Do we have anyone who is dipping their toe into the pool?

Mar 22, 2025 08:04 PM #12

I’ll take shit that won’t ever happen for $500 Alex

I want him fired if we lose first round again next season that would mean 1 trip outside of the first weekend in an 8 year span. Dook, UK, UNC and UConn would all fire coaches for such.

Mar 22, 2025 08:12 PM #14

Self isn't going to fricken Texas. ONE if he didn't leave to go to Oklahoma St when it was open and his Alma Mater and I guy that basically offered a blank check to Self-- he the sure as hell isn't going to Texas.

I'm still going with Coach comes back for one more year , rolls through upcoming year with Patterson and then hangs it up , retiring from KU. - -He has mentioned multiple times how he doesn't want to Coach a lot longer , wants to be able to spend time with the wife and enjoy the Grand kids

Mar 22, 2025 08:26 PM #15

2020 tournament cancelled, presumptive national champs. 2022 national champions. 2023, coach sidelined by heart ailment for tournament, but go ahead and spread the narrative that he's made 1 trip out of the 1st weekend. Nice arbitrary last 8 years, because if you make it 10 then you've got another FF, an elite 8, a sweet 16. But go ahead and make up crap of why Bill Self should be fired.

Mar 22, 2025 09:35 PM #16

Self to Texas would be like trading a Lamborghini for a Yugo. Texas is a football school. Nobody in the State of Texas gives a crap about basketball.

Mar 22, 2025 10:11 PM #17

@nuleafjhawk agree and I’d be worried we’d be trading a Lamborghini for Yugo, or maybe an Audi, as well

Mar 22, 2025 11:07 PM #18

@wissox Thank you couldn't been said better, but they just want to focus on the negative, Must be a sad life to live like that

Mar 22, 2025 11:48 PM #19

Bill is here at Haskell watching Darryn Peterson

Mar 22, 2025 11:53 PM #20

Hope we show out for him! Keep us posted, please

It's a great crowd considering it's spring break

Mar 23, 2025 12:23 AM #22

Thx!

Mar 23, 2025 01:36 AM #23

Prolific did win, DP was really good overall. You can tell he has such a great feel for the game.

Mar 23, 2025 01:43 AM #24

@BShark wish he'd bring some shooters!

Mar 23, 2025 03:20 AM #25

Saw a pic of some KU players there, flory, cross, Shelby and Elmarko. Somebody said zeke was there. Saw a post game interview, their young coach had so many positive things to say about DP! One reporter asked him who was he excited to play with and he said Flory. Was very impressed!

Yeah Zeke was there, away from the other players. Some former players showed up too, pretty sure I saw Tyshawn.

Bill got a great round of applause, not many kuballin10s in the crowd I imagine.

Mar 23, 2025 12:47 PM #27

@Crimsonorblue22 I forgot Shelby was a 4 star recruit. Any chance he is part of the rotation?

Mar 23, 2025 01:08 PM #28

@approxinfinity no

Or we are in deep shit, but I'd imagine no.

Mar 23, 2025 01:15 PM #29

@BShark lol

Mar 23, 2025 01:33 PM #30

@BShark LMAO - well dang it wonder what happened

Mar 23, 2025 02:23 PM #31

@BShark Noah Shelby should never play a meaningful minute for Kansas judging by his career so far. KU needs practices players too.

I’m curious how the roster will be filled out. The starting 5 doesn’t appear to be signed yet.

Yes I agree. No issue keeping him around for that reason.

Mar 23, 2025 06:29 PM #33

@BShark applause for back to back 6-7 big 12 seeds and rd 64 upset loss and rd 32 blowout

The applause is for his past definitely not his present coaching performance

Mar 23, 2025 07:29 PM #34

Sean Miller will be the tejas coach

Mar 23, 2025 07:29 PM #35

Mar 23, 2025 10:45 PM #37

Rylan is at the game today. Had a convo with Self at half time.

Mar 23, 2025 10:50 PM #38

I thought he was leaving for sure. Quoted straight from the horses mouth on here!

I’m not sure I want him back, if we could get him or Storr to buy into the program and work hard all offseason I’d think we’d be better for it.

Mar 23, 2025 11:28 PM #40

I would take rylan and or storr back, both are capable of a higher tempo game and it felt like the lights were coming on for AJ.

Mar 23, 2025 11:39 PM #41

@Crimsonorblue22 His camp contacted Bama that is 100% factual and they did it mid year……

Mar 23, 2025 11:45 PM #42

After rylan’s 4 3 game I never saw any aggression from him. Bama can have him. He had all zeros 1st half last game. I would have started storr 2nd half.

Mar 23, 2025 11:45 PM #43

@kuballin10 I wasn’t lying

Mar 23, 2025 11:48 PM #44

@Crimsonorblue22 Another in game roster mistake by dolla bill!

I mean Hurley says it’s easy go with the hot hand

Bill sees the hot hand and wets himself sticking with Rylen

Heck Juan goes out and we make a run first half and after tv timeout Bill’s interviewed and says Juan’s going back in

247 board has nailed it and the results show Bill is wrong. He’s misjudged his multiyear talent and he messed up the number 1 NIL roster this year. He let the ball be constantly in Juan’s hands with kj as the pnr guy

Just atrocious internal scouting/self evaluation

Mar 23, 2025 11:53 PM #45

We heard u a million times! Bow out!

Mar 23, 2025 11:55 PM #46

I hope Bill’s heart turns black with Juan and KJs departure and he never loves again.

Mar 24, 2025 12:32 AM #47

@Crimsonorblue22 Him bow out ?-- - shoot he could never do that- ---- Typical troll , he for sure is no KU fan. Typical classic Troll, for sure no KU fan . You neve hear a peep out of him when we are doing well-- -yet just drools all over himself at the first sight of trouble.- -He has been given multiple chances to get the hell out vut he has no where to go

Mar 24, 2025 01:50 AM #48

@SlimShaddy54 You must have been absent from the board the night we put the ball in AJ’s hands to start the game and Flory played the final 10 minutes because kid Hunt’s standard turd antics —- against Duke

@approxinfinity can attest I was positive and jacked about the season that night. Guys played loose - Bill in an interview said “we got guards” and then he tightened the reigns, installed his “system” and it all went to hell

But hey just remember the negatives like the news!

Bill was a disaster these past 2 years and it needs to be addressed. When we aren’t a title contender next year he for the betterment of the program needs to bow out (he’s said no coach is ever bigger than KU - which is respect of the program I appreciate)

Broken record, not worth engaging

@kuballin10 the only thing absent on this board is your opinion

Everyone accuses everyone about being too negative :)

I think we are all ready to see positive change.

Been a long time since I have said this. But like the horn of Boromir I’m gonna blast this one out at this pivotal, most critical juncture…..

GO, BILL, GO!

Feel free to interpret that how you will. Haha. I am ready for Bill to be the hero we need. And I am ready for him to step aside. What will be, will be.

But I am 100% not ready to sit on our thumbs.

Mar 24, 2025 03:07 PM #52

@approxinfinity Never have enjoyed sitting on my thumb lol
