Overview

  • Late in July, Self underwent a heart catheterization at Lawrence Memorial Hospital that placed two stents to address blocked arteries.
  • Doctors have granted him a clean bill of health and confirmed he has no coaching restrictions.
  • Self is back in his office daily and has resumed playing light golf as part of his recovery.
  • On the Field of 68 podcast, he dismissed any suggestion that his recent health scare signals the end of his coaching career.
  • He is now fully focused on preparing the Jayhawks for the upcoming season as players report in mid-August.
