Kansas, Oklahoma State: Winning NCAA Championship Pays Off




Winning NCAA Championship Pays Off: Coach Bill Self led the Kansas Jayhawks to a school record 37 victories in a season and an impressive victory over Memphis to win the NCAA championship, and three days later, he was given an extension to ensure he stays put. Self turned down his alma mater Oklahoma State and decided to take a lucrative deal that would make him one of college basketball’s highest paid coaches and seal the likelihood that he will finish his career in Kansas. Self has led the Jayhawks to 142 victories and four Big 12 titles in addition to this year’s championship and plans to continue his success there regardless of the potential loss of premium players to this year’s NBA Draft.
