Bill Self visits granddaughter in Texas, prepares for KU game against Arizona State

Head basketball coach Bill Self took advantage of Kansas’ off day Thursday to travel to Richardson, Texas, to meet his newly-born granddaughter, Ella Jane Browning.

“I bet you if I was there in the house for 10 hours, I bet you I held her eight — the whole time,” said Self, 54, after practice Friday at Allen Fieldhouse. “It was pretty cool. It was really cool as a matter of fact.”

Baby Ella is here and we love her so much! Lauren and I are so thankful for this little 7 pound 11 ounce blessing from the Lord.
