Celtics have maybe gone overboard in embracing modern basketball.

As President of Basketball Operations, he has plenty of roster building experience. Works with high paid athletes which is different for coaches now.

Also, has college experience already.

Again, not realistic at all I’m sure.
Intriguing. I doubt he would leave that cushy position, but KU is one of the jobs in basketball that would make anyone stop and think about it.

With NIL and the Portal, coaches are pretty much the equivalent of a “front office” anymore.

Get a guy who can do both. Coach and be an Executive.

He’s my guy and we know he’s embraced modern style.

You know, I'm sure Tyler Self became alot better than me by the time he left college but we would have been a reasonable match in high school. He just has the size over me.

I think I could have averaged 2.9 ppg on a bad Free State team when I was that age.

Every KU fan that I've seen in print or heard sound bites of says they dont understand why Flory sits on the bench and KJ plays and the lack of effort by the team in way too many games. That's coaching.

In this NIL era and portal does Self's system and coaching style clash with these new high school graduates? The portal candidates? Did we assume we weren't getting the best players due to the NCAA investigation hanging over the program or does Self's style of coaching clash with the young whippersnappers coming out of high school?

I realize that Roy nostalgia is still a thing, but valuing a title game appearance (and choke) over two national championships is a little strange.

They looked bad in the last game, but dropping from 3ish territory to 7 after two road losses is a little much.

12-30 from the free throw line in a 3 point loss. Disgusting.

And that’s 3 titles. We count 2020.

Man, I love Bill Self but I am beginning to question if he's cut out for the modern NCAA basketball with NIL.
Not to mention he's getting close to retirement anyway.
I might regret saying this but I would not be opposed to something new.

I’m getting there.

I said it a few times. I don’t see how a coach could be great in the old era and the new era. The game is just too different.

I don't really value the NCAA Tournament at all to be honest.

I value #1 seeds and Big 12 titles.

That is the most true barometer of sustained excellence.

2 seed at worst in that 1% scenario. They'd easily have the best resume in the sport with all those wins over top teams (they'd add like five top 10ish wins).

I'm more worried about beating OSU myself.

KC_Connection 02-22-2025 03:09 PM
3 turnovers for KU in the first minute, coming out strong

5th in defensive rating in the country currently actually: https://kenpom.com/

KU's problem is that their offense is an absolute disaster (primarily because teams don't guard one of their starters and their starting PG can't shoot at all).

Too bad we have to play on a "neutral" court. And this may be the last win, except maybe a Conference playoff win. Maybe.
