I bet Self simply believed Carlton's side of the story.

maybe. He also has to back his players or he loses the locker room. And worse that would kill him in recruiting. I'm assuming these top Players he gets and other top programs are not choir boys spending their free time at church. But, I think Self runs a clean program so it's good he didn't go all PC and protect his program and throw Bragg under bus.

This.
I think that Self knows his players fairly well after one year. Traveling to Korea with most of these kids probably gives him an even better idea of who they are. So, when CB said "coach, I know I was dumb for putting myself in that position to begin with, but it didn't happen like she says..." he probably had a good feeling he was telling the truth. And if it had been Greene or Giddens that said the same thing, he would have had a pretty good idea they weren't being truthful. I believe that Self is, overall, a really good judge of character, and that's why he isn't afraid to help players "decide" to transfer after only a year or two. Sent from my LG-H918 using Tapatalk |

Hahhha. Bill is way too smart to just believe teenage kids when they explain a problem or an arrest, GMAFB.

I think it's more that Self takes a wait and see approach. He probably believe in the innocent until proven guilty that we should all follow. Many times when one of these stories comes out, the initial reports are not entirely factual. Society and the media tend to judge before facts come out and that is wrong, IMO.

Maybe by the end of the year it will be different, but with the way KU's bigs have been getting fouls, it would hurt to lose even a mediocre big.

BTW, what are they chanting every time on defense? Can we get a petition or something to tell them to knock that shit off?

"De-fense" "Crimson-blue-go-k-u" "Let's-go-jay-hawks" "Ohhhhhhhhhhh" (in any place outside of AFH, this is just unnecessary) Those are some of them. Standing courtside means those chants get embedded in my brain. |
