Kansas is about to have their team back in Lawrence soon for the start of the school year and, with that, preparation for the upcoming season. However, late in the offseason, the Jayhawks have lost a member of their staff.

On Friday, Bill Self revealed that Chase Buford is no longer on staff at Kansas, leaving them to take an assistant job with the Denver Nuggets in the NBA. That leaves KU with an open seat on its bench that Self does intend to fill with a new coach.

“Bill Self said at his back to school news conference Chase Buford had taken an assistant coaching job with the Denver Nuggets,” Self said today, per Gary Bedore at ‘The Kansas City Star’. “He’s in no hurry to fill the position but will indeed replace Buford who was an assistant at KU this past season.”
