Season 5 Episode 36 Published 5 years, 8 months ago
Description

You could almost feel the virtual fist pumps from Kansas fans when news broke last week that basketball coach Bill Self has threatened a lawsuit against the NCAA. KU and the NCAA haven’t held anything back in their dueling public statements involving the NCAA’s investigation into the basketball program.

But on today’s SportsBeat KC, KU beat writer Jesse Newell provides a deeper explanation into the lawsuit threat, and why KU might hope it doesn’t come to that. Later, football is the topic and Kansas got some good news on the COVID-19 health front when it came to athletes returning to campus. But fingers are crossed.
