Title: Kansas BB Coach Bill Self & the NBA

This reminds me of the reaction when Saban was supposedly being wooed by Texas, the NFL, Notre Dame, Ohio State, fill-in-the-blank.

Let’s make one thing clear about all this chatter of Kansas basketball coach Bill Self’s aspirations for the NBA: All Self said was that, if the NBA comes knocking, he’d answer the door.

Isn’t there something refreshingly honest about a coach admitting he’d consider a different job if it came his way, instead of pledging loyalty to his current school when we all know no job is forever? As much as Jayhawk fans would like to think Self’s already bought himself a burial plot next to Allen Fieldhouse, the truth is any coaching job — even the best coaching jobs, like Kansas — is a business relationship, not a promise of lifetime fidelity.
