They must've tossed some serious coin at him.

And I'm sure they promised him a lot of years. That's what he said he wanted. And he deserves it.

Is anybody getting the presser?

It's being played live on EVERY channel.

I think everyone is sighing a big sigh of relief.

HE'S STAYING!!

I think he was getting warmed up. He's not stammering now. Probably all the 0's got his tongue tied.

OK so everyone is happy he's staying
2 first round exits
couple more early exits
1 lousy national championship.
How is that a 'good' record
1 for 5 thats crappy even in baseball.

Maybe he can hire that dag gummed Roy Williams as an assistant.


Way to go Rock Chalk Jayhawk.

No thanks, Roy is 1 for 20, plus you never know if he would be on the bench wearing a MU sticker under his jacket.

I saw his two pregame speeches during the FF, and there was absolutely no stuttering... and I doubt it was any more scripted than something like this. He must think too much when in front of a microphone.

Eh... he's been completely honest throughout, so I believed him when he said he would tell OSU to look elsewhere.

You know Lew Perkins really needs to get his damn nose fixed. How he can look in the mirror without saying "WOW!!" is beyond me. I'd have gotten that taken care of at some point :)

You know even as a Wildcat I really love Bill Self. It was nice hearing a college coach say that there is "no way he was leaving after giving the six guys he has coming in his word that he was going to be their coach." Pretty rare in todays age. I just had to deal with our former coach breaking his word to everybody so "he could go home." It's nice to see a guys word mean something even if they have a chance to "go home." I'm so sick of people using that as an excuse to break your word. Congrats to the Hawks for having a stand up guy.

Basically, OSU is nice, but this is Kansas!

How much money did he get?

He averages 28 wins per year, has been here 5 years and went to 3 Elite Eights and has won 1 National Championship. To put that into perspective, MU has been to 4 Elite Eights in their entire history.

No details yet, Lew said in the next few weeks we will find out.

Why is the media in the Kansas City area such a joke?

No wonder KC is looked at like a bunch of deliverance hicks, or media is a pathetic joke...

Self is totally pwning them right now... Can you say egg on face.
