Kansas Forward Julian Wright

I thought that, too. About the only thing I can imagine is Self telling Wright he could talk about at a later time, but not hours after he got benched for the half after that mishap. If anything, you would think he would probably have a good laugh with reporters about it.

That, and he could spew all the usual "I've learned my lesson" quotes.

 

Exactly. Self made it more of an issue, and gave it longer shelf life, by not allowing Wright to speak to the media.

You'd think a coach who's been in the game that long would have known better. But nothing surprises me with college hoops coaches anymore.
