Jayhawks see pros and cons of mastering art of comeback | Smithology | KUsports.com
“It's good. I mean, it's good that no matter what happens, you know, the guys haven't panicked,” Self said on the subject of KU winning after trailing by double figures. “It's bad that we’ve put ourselves in a position to be behind in some of those deficits, but when you're playing in a league that is as balanced as our league, I don't think that's totally unusual.”
Self wants Svi to play his way through current shooting slump | KUsports.com

Bill Self’s offensive shift still paying dividends for Jayhawks
The Jayhawks’ schedule-adjusted offensive efficiency is the top mark in Self’s 14 seasons in Lawrence. And while college offenses are better as a whole this year compared to seasons past, KU’s offense still ranks in the top five nationally — something that’s happened only four times in Self’s tenure.
If the Jayhawks indeed approach their 31st game of the season as they have their first 30, it likely means senior guard Frank Mason will remain on pace to break the team’s minutes per game record under Self. Mason is currently at 36.1 minutes per game, a full minute ahead of the mark set by Sherron Collins in 2008-09.
