Kansas Jayhawks men’s basketball assistant coach Norm Roberts is retiring after 37 years of coaching the sport, he announced on Monday. Roberts is a member of the Assistant Coaches Hall of Fame. He coached 14 seasons at KU and was part of head coach Bill Self’s original staff for the 2003-04 season. “I want to thank everybody at the University of Kansas and from everywhere I’ve been lucky enough to coach,” Roberts, 59, said in a news release.

All eyes will be on Texas Tech transfer Darrion Williams for the next couple of weeks. Kansas is interested in Williams, but he is currently going through the pre-NBA Draft process. Landing Williams would be huge for the Jayhawks, as he would be the first true wing on coach Bill Self's roster for the 2025-26 season. Williams averaged 15.1 points and 5.5 rebounds for the Red Raiders last season. He shot 34% from 3-point range in 2024-25 (he's 37.9% from deep for his career).

The Kansas Jayhawks football program had two players selected in the 2025 NFL Draft. Running back Devin Neal was picked in the sixth round by the New Orleans Saints and offensive lineman Bryce Cabeldue was selected in the sixth round by the Seattle Seahawks. Since 2018, eight KU players have been drafted. And with two draft picks for the second straight season, the Jayhawks have now had multiple picks in back-to-back drafts for the first time since 1996-97.

Kansas coach Bill Self already has a special connection with UTEP transfer guard Ahamad Bynum. Self recruited Bynum's uncle, Will Bynum, when Self had just started coaching at Kansas in 2003. Bynum chose to transfer to Georgia Tech, but Self remembers the recruitment vividly, according to his newest transfer target. Now, in a full circle moment, Self is recruiting Will's nephew, Ahamad. It's something the younger Bynum never saw coming. "It was surprising to me, man," Bynum told The Star.
