13 straight

Post by PhDhawk »

13 straight regular season wins against Top 10 opponents and 15-3 against the AP Top 10 since the 2015-16 season.

Unbe-fucking-lievable.

Bill Snyder is 5-36 against Top 10 teams.

Bill Self doesn’t have a stadium let alone a statue in his honor. We’re going to lose him to UNC if Kansas doesn’t start treating him better.

I don’t think Self thinks he is being mistreated here. He’s not going to leave because we didn’t build him a statue in time.

Stay 15 more years, win 2 more national titles and be near the top of the all time win list and they should name the court after him. Naismith already has the street outside AFH named after him. I wouldn't be offended if that change was made.

Don't think that'll happen. Hard to change it away from Naismith imo.

Bill will get plenty of love. Not sure it'll be the court though.

At the very least, you would have to think one of the streets would get changed to Self Dr.

I agree, Allen Fieldhouse is basically impossible to change. Even harder to change the name of the floor. When it comes to honoring Self, someone will propose those other 2 don't need the names of the building and floor, as well as a street outside the building.

Unless they want to revisit the brilliant idea of building a new arena on the county line or whatever that whole rumor was about a few years back.

I'm good with a street, a statue, a building, anything really other than the court or AFH. Those are untouchable. Self has been amazing, but James Naismith court is historic and shouldn't be changed for Bill Self. Truthfully, I don't think Self would want it changed.

When they build the new KC Phogushers arena in Leawood they can name it Russell Stover's Self Arena™.

One of the Naismith names will go away. Whether it be Naismith Court, or Naismith Drive. One of those items will become Self something.

Easier to get the court renamed. Changing Missouri Street to Fambrough Drive for a couple of blocks is not a big deal when it's a bunch of small houses.

Lots of university buildings on Naismith Drive, most notably the B-School.

Of course, none of this really matters.

just as long as nobody changes the name of the street between Naismith and Iowa, I'm cool with it.
