CBS segments if they ever made "The Dance" would be amazing.

Why in Gods name would Massa Self move down like three steps to take over OU? If anything, tthis season in cbb has proven that being in a power conference means little in terms of success and seed.
Do not underestimate the power of country music. Toby Keith is a real american with real American Dollars.  Self respects that more the Morningstar dirty money.

Also Garth Brooks is an OSU fan for those throwing his name out there.  Think he got his start at bars in Stillwater.

Also, Norman has a Raising Cane's Chicken Fingers.  Lawrence doesn't.  Seems pretty cut and dry to me.  <--- imo

I am just hoping we can land a SLTH.  I don't think KU can afford to take a "chance" on a "flier" coach.

Your new AD is pretty tight with Jankovich, so you should be all right.

The OU channel has to be appealing.   

Plus, notice how uptight and sweaty Seff gets if things don't go well, being the "the guy" always having to carry the entire athletic department wears on a coach.

At OU there's not nearly the same pressure, and they can pay just as well if not better than ku.

Only thing is that he will never be their fav.  He will always be #2 to FB.  

Big Game Bob will always have the better office.

Can Self handle this?  I mean, the guy is practically the AD, marketing dept, and BB coach and KU.

Good Points CNS.

But lets be honest.  No other sport at ku does crap, so it's always on men's basketball to carry the load and keep the bandwagon fanbase happy and holding their head high.    Bill Self may relish in this, just like Roy did, but it can also wear on a guy.

No way Bill will last at KU with a squeaky clean AD. He knows this, and he knows that he has to get out before he's exposed.

This.  Bill's thugs were getting nailed when Lew was there.  Biscuits will not happily cover up the payola and benefits to players the way Lew happily did.

Wow.  We may be getting mumped in the ass by one of our own on this one.

Word is that Cheyenne Zulu is NOT open to a salary adjustment for Self next year.  It would be really ironic if Self ends up leaving, thus screwing KSU in the conference realignment mess, all because his KSU-alum AD won't pony up.

ku losing a winning coach makes them completely unwanted (more than they already are) in realignment.

ku's athletic dept. is the worse in the conference minus men's basketball.  Ruin that and KSU may not get invited to a new conf. because they are tied to ku who will be worthless.
