Just out of curiosity, I decided to look up KU's average seed since Bill Self took over. It's 2.2.
It's an astounding 1.5 in the last 6 years.
Let's look at other traditional powers just to compare (last 9 years, a.k.a. The Bill Self Era):
Duke: 1.9
North Carolina: 2.0 (missed the tournament in 2010, however, so let's just imagine they made it as an 18 seed that year and the average drops to
3.8).
Syracuse: 3.1 (missed the tournament twice in that time period, so the new average using the above logic is
6.4).
Kentucky: 4.5 (missed the tournament in 2009, so again, let's imagine they made it as an 18 seed and the new average is
6.0).
UCLA: 4.8 (missed the tournament a whopping 3 times making their new average a dismal
9.2).
