Provo, Utah — Kansas’ two-game road swing through Utah began with optimism, as head coach Bill Self believed the trip could bring the Jayhawks together like a November multi-team event — something this year’s team didn’t get — usually does. It ended with the Jayhawks two losses worse, with another unsuccessful starting lineup in the rearview mirror, poised to drop out of the AP Top 25 for the first ...
Provo, Utah — Ahead of Tuesday night’s matchup with BYU, the Kansas men’s basketball team found itself in an unfamiliar position: the No. 5 seed line. ESPN’s bracketology expert Joe Lunardi dropped the Jayhawks to No. 19 overall, in the aftermath of their 74-67 loss at unranked Utah on Saturday.

The Jayhawks don’t have to worry about that this year. KU pulled off a four-game road sweep of Texas A&M-Corpus Christi in its first action of 2025, escaping with an extra-innings victory in the opener Friday and then breezing past the Islanders in three ...
Salt Lake City — One of the principal storylines throughout Kansas’ nonconference schedule was the Jayhawks’ ongoing search for a team identity. “Because who are we?” KU coach Bill Self wondered aloud on Dec. 8, after the Jayhawks had lost back-to-back road games at Creighton and Missouri. “Are we a skilled team?
