Kansas head coach Bill Self said he's not sweating the legal uncertainty regarding three key members of his roster.
"I welcome the uncertainty, to be honest with you," Self told reporters Tuesday, including ESPN's Myron Medcalf. "I think it'd be nice if all the court cases were set on the same date, so if guys were going to be eligible or not be eligible, they all go to school at the same time.
"That's not the way it works. You've got people fighting for their cause starting back in early June, and it's been different states or different courts that have been stretched out over time. I'm going to coach it. I'm going to coach it the same, whether we have him or not."
The Jayhawks recently announced the addition of ex-Purdue big man Trey Kaufman-Renn, who was granted a preliminary injunction earlier in October against the NCAA.
The Minnesota Timberwolves selected Kaufman-Renn 59th overall in this year's draft. The 6-foot-9 forward played in five Summer League games but never signed a contract with the NBA franchise.
Melvin Council Jr. and Tre White are also in legal battles against the NCAA for their eligibility.
Council received a preliminary injunction to suit up this season as well. The 6-foot-4 guard played two seasons at junior college before stops at Wagner, St. Bonaventure, and Kansas. He ranked fourth on the Jayhawks in scoring (12.7 points per game) last season.
Meanwhile, an Indiana court granted White an injunction to restore his eligibility for a fifth season. The NCAA was unsuccessful in its bid to reverse that decision.
White was Kansas' second-leading scorer last season, averaging 13.5 points and shooting 40.3% from deep.
