Bill Self

[RedMyMind]

Is Bill Self a good coach?

I have a co-worker who really doesn't care for him and thinks KU Basketball can do better.

He really isn't impressed with the regular season conference title streak.

He measures how they do in the NCAA Tourney.

You serious Clark?

 

[Bugeater]

Winning NC’s in any sport is difficult, if it wasn’t, Coach K at Duke would win it all the time. I’d take Self at Nebraska in a second.

 

[RedMyMind]

You serious Clark?

Just reporting the news.

I think Bill Self is a funny duck

 

[RedMyMind]

It reminds me of the Tom Osborne talk of the 80s when he was said to not be able to win the big ones. Yes, I know Bill Self won a tile back in 2008

Remind your friend Roy Williams had to leave Kansas to win a NC. Now he has 3.

 

[blackshirt68701]

Roy is a far superior coach to Self and it isn't close. Hell, look what Roy Williams has done this year with a former walk on leading the team in scoring. Self underacheives nearly every year when it counts.

 

[PeliniTheCrutch]

Bill Self is a wonderful, maybe the best, regular season coach in America.

 

[TheNewNU]

They should hire Tim Miles look at what he's done here with no history. Imagine what he could do at KU.

 

[RedMyMind]

No, he was dead serious

Is asking for a co-worker the new "asking for a friend"?

Exactly what I was going to put as my 2nd sentence!

nope. I work in Topeka and we were talking about basketball as Nebraska was getting slaughtered

Well, whoever this side-piece of yours is, tell her that Bill Self sucks.

 

[Hugo_Stiglitz7]

I'd definitely take him over Brock Osweiler .

I'm not into dudes.

Well... i’m No KU fan but living in KC Bill Self is pretty much a god in the eyes of most KU fans. 15 years as HC with 14 regular season conference titles, 7 Big 12 tourney titles, 2 final four appearances, and a national title (something Roy Williams never did at KU). That’s impressive. To say otherwise is beyond asinine.

To put it another way (not an expectation, just what if). If in 15 years Coach Frost won 14 division title, 7 conference championships, 2 Playoff appearances, and 1 national title would you think he’s one of the best ever in Husker history???

Top 3 anyway

 

[schuele]

Self is awful. KU should totally fire him.

Then once he's newly unemployed, Self would be a good fallback candidate for the Nebraska job, should Dana Altman somehow turn it down.

Sure. He would be top 3. Haven't been too many coaches at Nebraska to stay that long.

Also, It seems that the Big 12 has been pretty blah in both football and basketball recently.

Was KU crap before Bill Self?

Bill Self currently reminds me of Paul Chryst.

Ok... Troll... Well done!

Why would I troll?

My bad. Eyes are getting old.

i see what you did there.

 

[JohnRossEwing]

I am sure there are some KU fans that get mad at Self during the dance BUT he is a great coach and recruiter. I wish the Illini still had him

 

[grayhairedfreak]

Tell your KU fan we'll trade Miles for Self straight up today and see how he feels about that.

 

[RedMyMind]

I agree but there are plenty of average/above averages coaches we would have traded for during our last 20 years of football.

No, he's not. In head to head games I believe Self has owned Roy.

This post is such an epic fail I don't even know where to start.

 

[swissticuffs]

Bill self is one of the top5 coaches in America. He just happens to under achieve in the tourney.

 

[HuskerHusaria]

I'm no BS fan, but his results are what they are. Can't argue with his successes. Any university would be lucky to have him.

 

[jeans15]

Roy is a better coach.

Bill Self coaches in the Big 12 not the ACC. They have 3 Kansas like teams.

Your conference is crap if the same team can win the conference title every year for 14 years.

But can't win a NC.

I will take Roy any day over Self.......Results matter....


Kansas is a perennial choker. That starts with the Head coach.


He is good coach however..

 

[tpmcg]

could you argue bill has done a better job than roy at ku?

roy's work at nc is tainted.

So...that means that Roy Williams was an even bigger choker at KU than Self. Never remotely came close to doing what Self has done at KU, and Self is 4-1 against Williams head-to-head. Give me Self over Roy all day long. Roy constantly choked at KU, and yes, worse than Self.

Well Kansas is much better under Self, so what does that make Roy?
