Kansas Jayhawks head coach Bill Self was reportedly hospitalized on Monday and did not travel with the team to Colorado "out of an abundance of caution," according to ESPN .
Per ESPN, the school said Self was feeling "under the weather" and was later taken to LMH Health, where he was reportedly given IV fluids. According to a statement released by the school , Self is "feeling better but did not accompany the team to Boulder."

Self had another health scare last summer, when he was hospitalized in July after experiencing "some concerning symptoms," wrote Bozello. He was released two days after undergoing a medical procedure in which two stents were placed . He also underwent a similar procedure in 2023 and missed that year's Big 12 and NCAA tournaments due to chest tightness and balance concerns.
Self has been one of the most decorated coaches in college basketball history since taking the helm at Kansas in 2003, leading the Jayhawks to 14 consecutive Big 12 championships from 2004-2018. He's coached Kansas to four final four appearances and national titles in 2008 and 2022 — making him the only coach in school history to win multiple national championships. He was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 2017. On Nov. 12, 2024, Self passed Allen Phog as the winningest coach in Kansas history.
