Bill Self Healthy, Rejoining Team For NCAA Tournament.
-
Wondering which game will see his return? Don’t know for certain what he had done, but the pressure of NCAA basketball is heavy. Should he skip the tournament?

Not sure , do know that he did not travel to Des Moines with the team. They flew - -Coach by Car. - Interesting ,Coaching contests like the pressure of tourney game pretty stressful so not sure. He might sit out the Howard game - -But then you got either Illinois/Arkansas - -either one of these not good. Just don’t know if it’s a good idea in the long run. Might be he is there BUT he is not there , meaning might give input before game and such but not actually Coach- I dunno , broader scheme of things Health much more important then a game
-
We will find out for sure today in a couple hours.

Very true my friend , and I hope he does Coach for us - - just be careful
-
@Jethro that’s insane glad you are still with us! You would forsure know more than I.
-
@jayballer67 I would say high percentage chance he coaches Saturday. How much more higher stress is it to be there coaching or in the hotel yelling at the TV?

@Jethro Now a days they are doing these procedures through the wrist which is less painful.
Glad I know that second hand…

He drove because he just had surgery. Flying can sometimes cause bloodclots, so it’s never recommended soon after. the big question is…will he have to drive to Vegas?
-
Bill isn’t doing the press conference today. Would imagine Norm is coaching tomorrow.

I hear ya I’ve had Heart Cath’s before but no stints - -just my pace maker - Hope he can recover soon
-
@BShark Makes sense to me. Give him two more days off.
He may have to rock the Huggy Bear stool.
-
Bill probably just wanted to skip the presser because nobody likes doing media
-
@BShark id say he ain’t coaching tomorrow then and that’s okay. If we can’t win that one without him we weren’t going far anyway
-
JUST gonna be interesting , was listening to local sports media and like they said bigger picture here, ya we can get by Howard then just have to see what happens , a we know how Coach is during a game when things are not going good -he get’s pretty worked up pretty excited -the Bigger picture they say is were talking about a guys life in this situation - -it’s more about Jimmy’s and Joe’s then X’s and O’s
If it comes down to it and can’t Coach this weekend then it is what it is – bigger picture then Basketball

He should have me assist him on the bench. I guarantee I can rip players’ and refs’ arses at least as good as he can! I’ll do his screaming… my face will turn red and purple… I’ll have these guys begging for Self to do it next time.
Norm is too mellow!
-
I heard he was completely released, it was on coach. When this happens, any kind of heart incident, it scares the crud out of you. My dad thought every lil thing was another heart thing. It took awhile before he could chill and enjoy his life.
-
Might be good for coach to ease in on this first game than jump in on the tougher game. Get his feet wet!
-
Maybe someone is cleaning the Madden Cruiser for Las Vegas.

Yea, i’m scared for him!
-
The only reason Bill didn’t do the press conference today is he did not want to upstage his players, his team, and the game by taking 30 questions about his health. Hall of Fame guy - thinking about his team, not himself. He will absolutely coach tomorrow.
-
I can imagine that.
Plus… I don’t think he gets his jollies doing pressers. Now he has a good excuse to pass it on to Norm. Plus… I think he likes giving Norm some attention, too.
-
I think he gets tired of Gary Bedore! He gets right in there.

-
Norm doing media session again today. - - saying it’s a day to day , I think it’s 50/50 at best
