SELF ‘HOPEFUL’ FOR DE SOUSA NEWS ‘RELATIVELY SOON’ —
Self said the status of withheld sophomore forward Silvio De Sousa remains unchanged, though he expressed hope the season-long situation will soon find a resolution one way or another.
“I do think we’ll know more relatively soon, but that’s not coming from anybody in the know telling me that,” Self said. “I’ve just gotta believe that something’s at least going to happen from (the NCAA) educating us on what happens next, but we don’t have anything for sure to tell you on that.”
KU has voluntarily withheld De Sousa as the NCAA looks into allegations of illicit payments received by his guardian during De Sousa’s recruiting process, claims stated during a recently completed trial of three individuals involved in the federal government’s probe into corruption in college basketball.
