@180_NoScope @HowiesTakeLULZ It’s not always black and white but sometimes it’s about finding the right fit in the portal era, like Council. Dickinson was a fine player but bad for the team. Just didn’t have the guard play.

@bhallier @HowiesTakeLULZ It is but we also lost McCullar at the end of that season. And then we chased away Ejiofor then Philon through absolute trash transfers yet everyone who transfers seems to thrive elsewhere. Thoughts?

I don’t mean this lightly, but for anyone who wants Bill Self to retire? Fuck off.

My biggest takeway from this year is that we need to lighten up our non-con schedule quite a bit. It really does us no good to play such a tough non-con schedule when the Big XII is as good as it is. The benefits no longer outweigh the negatives of a tough non-con. #KUbball

@Vtakes4 I’d say it’s more management than coaching but yeah the lack of shooters has been puzzling.

@bhallier A lot of that is on bill though. Surrounded dp with no shooters. Tiller was forced into a huge role in his frosh year because we had no 4. And as you said Mbiya and Kohl were good today. But they literally didn’t play all season - that’s coaching.

Too many people blaming Self, who does deserve some blame. Bottom line is too many players were awful today. White and Tiller were useless, Melvin had effort but 5 turnovers, Elmarko was Elmarko. Peterson, Rosario and Mbiya were the good ones today.

@ajsteventon @mattpercy15 16 coaches have won multiple natties. Since John Wooden, it’s 10 - Coach K, Roy Williams, Jim Calhoun, Bobby Knight, Denny Crum, Billy Donovan, Dan Hurley, Dean Smith and Jay Wright. Of those, only K, Roy, Calhoun, Knight, Dean and Self won titles past a 6 year window

@mattpercy15 @bhallier Bill isn’t the only coach who has won two nattys. He’s not even the most recent coach to do it

@kutweetsandnews Golden? Absolutely not. The other four are fine. Might need to see another year from Hoiberg but I like him.

@Big_Tamale This may not be a take others agree with but I’d also soften the noncon schedule a tad.

@bhallier I would almost give 23 an asterisk. But the problems since 23 have been the same. No guard, no depth, terrible basketball to end the season, and blowout losses. He needs to learn to play a Duke, Houston, and ISU schedule and develop depth and chemistry.

@HowiesTakeLULZ Agree it’s fair. And the questioning is valid. 2023 though, wasn’t that Bill’s first heart trouble? So he can’t be held for that loss. Sorry can’t remember the year.

@mattpercy15 @ajsteventon I get the frustration. I really do. But to think KU or anyone can get a coach as good or better than Bill Self is odd. It’s like Chiefs fans wanting to run off Andy Reid.

@bhallier @ajsteventon Better 😂😂 that’s barely possible. How do these people not understand the greatness we have experienced the last 23 years.

@Big_Tamale Fair assessment (although the first crashout was when Self had his heart troubles). I think he's getting closer to figuring it out, and I do think next year's recruiting class is so good he wants to coach them. Either way, if this isn't it for Bill, next year will be.

@bhallier True, but for 4 straight years the team has been playing their worst basketball ending February into the Tournament. I no longer believe he knows how to construct a roster year after year with 4-5 new starters. The days of developing a player for 3-4 are long gone.

@JamesKman13 He hasn't gotten the right pieces for sure. What would have been interesting is if Peterson had been healthy all year.

@bhallier I’m split on it. I can acknowledge that Self might be the best coach KU has ever had. At the same time, I can argue that he’s underachieved and done some bad coaching jobs (in season and game decisions).

@Jedwards_radio So it could work or it may not. 🤷 The good news is I guess KU will have a new coach in 1-13 months.

@bhallier Mind telling me how it’s working out for Duke? How about Michigan? How’d UCONN do after firing their national title winning coach? I bet Iowa is an absolute mess after moving on from Fran McCaffery. I bet Arizona regretted firing Sean Miller?

@bhallier You think KU can’t get a better coach to replace him for the next 20 years?

@CJR16255 No to Golden and Oats. The other three would be fine, maybe add Fred Hoiberg in there too.

If he does retire, KU can have anyone they want. My list, in no particular order: Tommy Lloyd Ben McCollum Todd Golden Dusty May Nate Oats Anyone that says Vaughn is drunk. That would be horrible. This is KU. They can get anyone. No need for dumb nostalgia hires.
Michael Swain@MSwain247

Self said he hasn’t decided if he will coach next year. Said he will go home and discuss it with family. “I love what I do, I want to feel good doing it.”

@bhallier It’s either that or turn into an irrelevant program like Syracuse or Indiana. At this point, Bill Self is nothing more than an underachieving heart patient.
