It is very interesting reading the OK State free scout boards. They seem to think they will get Self, Coach Calipari, or Bruce Pearl.
Sounds like what Hawk fans were saying after Alford jumped ship for the desert.
Bill Self to Okie St ??

And that is guarenteed even if he gets another coaching job!! To be spread over 10 years(must be to reduce his tax bracket)!!
It may be insane...but every DI coach in America is hoping he gets it because it will, effectively, raise the pay scale for all coaches.
I was unaware of Mac's new nickname! It sounds so old-timey!
Nobody likes losing, but I think 20 wins next year (while possible) is maybe a little out of our reach. Our guard play should be much improved, but we don't have a lot in the way of bigs.
Please Angie when you get old ...well..like...FLAUNT IT!!!!
Cause there ain't nuthing in front of you besides the nursing home and the cemetery!!!! SYIH.....LOL
I have no idea why self would leave a sure thing at KU to try and rebuild a down OSU program. On the other hand, if I was a big time coach and ISU came calling me with a truck load of money I would listen.
Boys boys boys...In my next life ...REMIND ME TO BE A BASKETBALL COACH!!!!
rite now i'm working on being a powerball winner...like every week
Money, Money, Money. And it wasn't too many years ago OSU was in the finals as well.
OSU has a great arena and great fans. Throw in Self is from Oklahoma and went to school at OSU and I'm not sure why he woudn't go. What more does he have to prove? He's got a national championship.
At Kansas he's going to lose a lot of guys. He'll probably have Chalmers and Aldrich to build a team around. Knowing KU fans, now that he won a NC they will expect it all the time now. If he doesn't make the elite 8 or final 4 in the next couple of years you think they will be patient? Get out now, go home and be the most popular coach at OSU with reasonalbe expectations.
They expected it before this tournament, much like Hawk fans expect Big Ten and National Championships.

The real question is will Pickens move on after the first "no" or will he make another run? I have not seen the Self statements or press conference so I'm not sure how definitive he was about staying at KU but I know guys like Pickens usually don't quit after one no.
