It still seems somewhat farfetched, but there is increasing chatter about Kansas Jayhawks' coach Bill Self leaving Lawrence and heading Austin to take over the Texas basketball program.

Indeed, most of the recent rumors about the longtime KU coach is that he's considering retirement. But Chip Brown of Horns247 says Self has had a long-standing interest in the Texas job.

Coming off of his worst year at KU, Self has been more vocal lately about changes needed at Kansas for the Jayhawks to be more competitive. Especially in regards to the transfer portal and NIL funds.
