Kansas coach Bill Self shared the latest updates on his health Saturday following the news that he would miss the team’s round of 32 game against Arkansas – his fifth straight absence since being hospitalized on March 8.
Self, who has not coached since the regular-season finale on March 4, has been recovering from a health issue that, per Kansas, caused “chest tightness and balance concerns.” The school announced on March 12 that the 60-year-old coach underwent a “standard heart catheterization” and was treated for blocked arteries, but is expected to make a full recovery.
With a timeline for his return to the sidelines still undetermined, Self said Saturday he has continued to make strides in his recovery but will take his time before re-joining the team.
