It may take some time for him to learn to be a good coach though.
But yea, not ready for something as big as KU.

Re: Jayhawks in the NBA
Self was 6-21 his first season at Oral Roberts. Is that bad at best?
Yes, I know Oral Roberts wasn't good the season before Self got there and I know Free State was very good the season before Sherron took over.
Good, bad, mediocre, whatever, I say seriously - good for Sherron. Maybe not the career path he intended but the guy has a college degree and he's making an honest salary and taking care of his family. That's a lot more than can be said for other people he grew up with/around.

even IF he’s a mediocre (or even shitty) coach, if that’s what he wants to do and can hold a job doing it, then good on him
Have we fallen into a mesmerized state that makes us accept as inevitable that which is inferior or detrimental, as though having lost the will or the vision to demand that which is good?

Re: Jayhawks in the NBA
Nice to hear the commentator describe Christian Braun as ...instant energy off the bench...a member of the National Champion Kansas Jayhawks... during the Denver v Phoenix game last night.
Watching the Nuggets, you can see why Braun, as good as he is, doesn't get much PT. I didn't see him come into the game, and when I first looked up and saw him my instant impression before I knew it was Braun, was who is that little White guy?
His teammate Murray was on fire las night.
He doesn't always look fantastic in this summary, but...

Re: Jayhawks in the NBA
They love Christian braun in Denver. Have all year long. Perfect team first role player and he fits their system. His defense rebounding and hustle is pretty elite already for a rookie wing
When he rotated in during game 1, he was assigned to guard Kevin Durant at times. And actually did a pretty good job in spot minutes guarding him

I was really surprised to see Braun guarding KD, too.

Kid has confidence. He refuses to believe he can't do anything. Just a winner.
Re: Jayhawks in the NBA
Under/over career starts for Braun set at 299.5 and career PPG set at 8.5.

one of my favorite KU basketball t-shirts is the Super K one that came out during his tenure…double meaning and all that

I attended probably 35+ KU games with Keith Langford at AFH.
