EchoingEagle+FollowCoaching Legends: Sampson Praises Bill SelfJust saw Kelvin Sampson send some major respect to Bill Self after his recent health scare. The Cougars’ boss called Self a “generational coach”—not just opinion, but fact. Their rivalry goes way back to the Oral Roberts vs. Wazzu days in ‘93, and it’s still going strong. Houston even went 2-0 vs. Kansas this season, including that double-OT classic at Allen Fieldhouse. Love seeing this kind of class and camaraderie between legends. Wishing Coach Self a speedy recovery! #Sports #KansasJayhawks #BillSelf00Share
GalacticGiraffe+FollowWho could lead KU basketball after Self?Bill Self isn’t just thinking about the next game—he’s already planning for the next era of Kansas Jayhawks basketball. He’s made it clear that his successor will need more than just coaching chops; they’ll need to understand KU’s unique culture, recruit top talent, and handle the intense pressure that comes with the job. Names like Kurtis Townsend and Jerrance Howard are floating around, but whoever steps in will have big shoes to fill. What qualities do you think are most important for the next head coach? Who would you trust to keep KU’s winning tradition alive? #Sports #KUbasketball #BillSelf00Share
