Bill Self could charm his way into or out of anything. Do you know how he got his first coaching job? He had just graduated from Oklahoma State, where he was a pretty good player. He played like he coaches — tough, in your face, bold beyond his talents.

A reporter asked McKillop to elaborate on what the world could use.
“Well, parents today abdicate their responsibilities by not disciplining their children and thinking that’s love,” McKillop explained. “Love is a balance of that and discipline in a political world, in the world of the church, in the world of corporations. You could pick your field. There’s a complete lack of balance between love and discipline.”
Oh, McKillop didn’t stop there. I just want you to catch your breath. Some of you Kansas fans struggling to raise kids might want to quit reading now, because if you continue to read you might root for Davidson today just so you can hear more of his thoughts on raising kids.
