The Bill Self quote genuinely surprised me — something that doesn’t happen often with the coach now in his 15th year with Kansas.
While talking to Spectrum Sports during its Late Night in the Phog broadcast two weeks ago, Self was asked about his team’s rotation this season with only three true post players.
“We are limited with bigs,” Self said. “So we’ll play ‘big’ (with two big men) 70 percent of the time, I would think because those will be our best players, our best lineup.”
That seemed … optimistic.
