Kansas coach Bill Self released from hospital after undergoing heart procedure
Kansas men's basketball coach Bill Self was released from the hospital Saturday following a procedure to insert two stents, the school announced. Self had checked into Lawrence Memorial Hospital on Thursday after experiencing 'concerning symptoms' and feeling unwell. 'I want to thank all the amazing doctors and nurses at LMH Health for the excellent care I received during my stay,' Self said in a statement. 'I feel strong and am excited to be home. Our team has had a productive summer, and I'm looking forward to recharging and preparing for the upcoming season.' Advertisement This marks the second heart-related procedure for the 62-year-old coach in just over two years. In March 2023, Self underwent a heart catheterization and had two stents placed to treat blocked arteries, causing him to miss the Big 12 and NCAA Tournaments. Kansas, a No. 1 seed that year, was eliminated in the second round by No. 8 Arkansas. At the time, Self had reported chest tightness and balance issues, prompting immediate medical attention. Self has typically been a steady presence on the Kansas sideline since taking over in 2003, missing only a handful of games. Despite the health setbacks, Self remains one of the most accomplished coaches in the sport. He signed a $53 million deal in 2023, making him the highest-paid coach in college basketball. In 2017, he was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame and is entering his 33rd season as a head coach. Self holds an 831-261 career record with four Final Four appearances and two national championships on his resume. The Jayhawks open the season Nov. 3 against Wisconsin-Green Bay.
