Under Investigation, Kansas Stakes Claim as Nation's Top Team

WACO, Texas — Bill Self ignored the halftime heckler. He was sitting in the front row of the Ferrell Center, near the tunnel where Self’s Kansas Jayhawks had just exited the playing floor with a six-point lead over the Baylor Bears. The guy waited for Self to finish his interview with ESPN’s Holly Rowe, then let him have it.

“FBI!” He shouted. “FBI, Bill! FBI!”

Afterward, when Kansas had won the Game of the Year to date in college basketball, 64-61, the heckler was a bit less sassy. He gave one more half-hearted “FBI” shout at Self and then turned to leave.
