	I am a huge O-State fan and I want to wish coach Self the best. I went to basketball camp years ago at OSU and coach Self was there. He is a good man and I don't blame him for staying. The way the program is going now he would not have received the opportunity to build his team. Sean did not get the opportunity what would make him think he would. I hope OSU can find a good coach, but we will see. Again good luck coach Self and I wish you the best.

	As a huge KU fan I'm pretty glad he's staying too..... but I wouldn't have blamed him a bit if he'd left. I really believe Self is a good guy who makes his decisions based on what would be best for him and his family, and coaching at your alma mater is a hard thing to turn down (not to mention all that money). I hope OSU can find a fantastic coach who can get the team built back up where it should be. Maybe the OSU boosters will keep that money on the table to try to get somebody like Tim Floyd or Chris Lowery.

	I'm also a huge OSU fan and I also hope that Coach Self does great things for KU. I met Coach Self last August and he and Scott Sutton are the two nicest coaches and smartest coaches I've ever met. I know how enticing it sounded to him to come home and coach where his mentor, Eddie Sutton coached, and make it the program Coach Sutton wanted it to be, but he's smart not to leave Kansas, which is the best coaching job in the country.
