Bill Self to Okie St ??

No I don't think it would happen but after watching KU tear apart UNC. How bad do you think Boone Pickens wants Self in Stillwater? I would not be surprised if he made a very serious offer to Self.

I sure Self(ish) will use this to leverage a big fat (Mangino-esque?) deal from KU

Re: Bill Self to Okie St ??

its not going to happen. Self is too smart, too good a guy to do it. It has as much chance as Tim Floyd leaving USC for ISU.

Re: Bill Self to Okie St ??

What has Bill Self done to be considered "Selfish"? He's a good coach, who has won every where he has been.

Re: Bill Self to Okie St ??

Self has said repeatedly there is no way it happens. And the way he has said it has almost been insulting to OSU. I'd be absolutely shocked if it happened.

Re: Bill Self to Okie St ??

Self will listen (at least his agent will) and you would be kidding yourself to think any differently.

Re: Bill Self to Okie St ??

Nothing about Self in particular, but I think that college coaches as a lot are quite selfish. They are always quite eager to get their contract renegotiated after a good season... And, by the same token, I have never seen one offer to take a lower salary, or give up something after a bad season.

Can you blame them? John Brady went to a Final Four 2 years ago and now he's fired. As college coaches they have to get what they can when they can.

Which is precisely why Self will listen to OSU.

I don't think he'll go simply because he won't have to absorb a few crappy seasons. When he went to Illinois, everything was already laid in place for him. When he went to Kansas, everything was already laid in place for him. If he goes to Oklahoma State, he's got a LOT of building to do. I think he may be an opposite of JP. He's a maintainer, not a builder.
