Kansas Basketball: Who will the be point guard this season?
The sheer thought of a “starting point guard” is a bit of a sore subject for the Kansas Jayhawks right now.

Opinion: Mizzou hire makes Bill Self look even better
The recent hire of Kim Anderson by the University of Missouri has proven once again that KU fans are extremely fortunate to have Bill Self as the head of their program.

That meant that even if the Jayhawks lost their remaining three games, the Jayhawks would still be Big 12 champs (and no sharing this year...

KU's Self doesn't want to tone down the Wiggins hype
KANSAS CITY, Mo. Kansas basketball coach Bill Self said he is handling the out-of-control Andrew Wiggins hype just fine.
"The (other) guys are, too," Self said. "Wiggins has brought a lot of excitement to our program but like I told him, he hasn't done anything yet. He hasn't made a basket.
