Back to EpisodesSportsBeat KC: How the Kansas Jayhawks spent their first week as NCAA champions
Description
A week ago today, Kansas defeated North Carolina to win the NCAA men’s basketball championship. What’s happened since then for the Jayhawks? Plenty of celebration, like Sunday’s parade in Lawrence, the announcement of a barnstorming tour and continued speculation about next season, including a timeline for learning of potential NCAA penalties.
All of those topics and more are discussed on today’s episode of The Star’s SportsBeat KC podcast with beat writers Gary Bedore and Jesse Newell. After the Jayhawks’ first week as national champions, it’s time to look ahead to who might be returning for Bill Self’s 2022-23 roster. With new rules allowing players to profit from their name, image and likeness, would it make sense for some of this year’s roster — guys with pro basketball dreams — to play another year in college?
