Kansas University Coach Bill Self doesn’t mind his players celebrating after a win, and that goes for supporters of the program, too.

But he’s no fan of taking matters too far.

“Jayhawk fans are truly the greatest, and there is no place better to play basketball than Allen Fieldhouse – although San Antonio on Saturday will be close!” Self told students, faculty and staff in an e-mail message. “We wish you all could be with us Saturday, but we know you will be there in spirit. No matter where you are, please look out for each other, know your own limits and be safe.

“Show the world that Jayhawks are class acts on and off the court! Celebrate safely.”

Ads, posters and fliers also are being distributed, adding another message from Kansas University’s basketball boss: “The nation is watching; let’s show some class. Jayhawks celebrate safely.”

Self also recorded a video message, addressing anticipated fan behavior as the Final Four games approach.

The Jayhawks play North Carolina in the second of two national semifinal games Saturday night. The KU game is expected to tip off at 7:47 p.m.
