He may have been an Okie, but I think Self will pull a Dean Smith....and stay at the school who gave him his "big" chance at leaving his mark on the history of the game--not the one he happened to "play" at.
In the position Self is in, as the coach of one of the top five programs in the country....it's gonna take more than money to lure him from Lawrence, IMO. I could be wrong....but there will have to be other, significant, reasons for him to leave (falling out with AD, KU lowballing him on his new contract, family/friends that he would be closer to in Stillwater, a deep love of something in Stillwater that he doesn't have in Lawrence....etc.---in other words, the sort of intangible things that lured Roy back to NC. I don't see them....at least at the moment.)
