Sports Radio 810 did just confirm on air that Bill Self is dealing with a health issue and will not coach today. They cannot confirm anything else at this time. #KUbball
Apparently this rando account was the first one to post that he was in the hospital. People are speculating that maybe he knows someone at the hospital that told him. Weird when a rando breaks the news like this.
Per Source: KU Head mens basketball coach Bill Self at Hospital being treated for what I’m being told is an apparent Heart Attack. @espn@KUHoops

Damn, that sucks. Hope he recovers as well as possible from this. Basketball is obviously going to be secondary for a while for him. And I hate to say it, but it may even accelerate his retirement. [Reply]
If this was going to happen, it’s best that it’s at the end of the season. If it isn’t too serious, then you have to think Self will find a way to be ready for the big tourney.
Then he has all offseason to make whatever life changes he needs to make.
He’s an Andy Reid type imo. I don’t see him wanting to hang it up and take it easy. [Reply]
I’m being told Bill Self suffered a vascular event last night and that is why he is hospitalized. I don’t know at this time if it was a heart attack or a stroke. Scary situation for Self, his family, and the KU community. Glad to hear he’s recovering at KU Med.
