KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- Just as the video celebrating his first 600 wins was wrapping up, Kansas coach Bill Self turned to his left and saw Frank Mason III, extending a ball to him to commemorate the milestone.It was fitting: Nobody did more to deliver Selfs most recent victory.The sparkplug point guard poured in 30 points to match his career high, Devonte Graham and Josh Jackson also had starring roles, and the third-ranked Jayhawks cruised to a 105-62 victory over Missouri-Kansas City on Tuesday night to give their coach a win 24 years in the making.Its really cool to see all the guys who have been a part of this before and been before me, said Jackson, who had 19 points, 12 rebounds and five assists. To be part now feels good.Indeed, more than a dozen of Selfs former players appeared on the video, ranging from Cole Aldrich and Mario Chalmers to Tony Heard, one of the coachs early stars at Tulsa.We tried to get him to cry, Jackson said, but he was like, `Nah, not happening.Self is the ninth-fastest coach to reach 600 wins, just behind Phog Allen, whose name adorns Kansas building. The former Oral Roberts, Tulsa and Illinois coach is 394-84 with the Jayhawks, and Selfs mark of 212-9 at Allen Fieldhouse is downright absurd considering the Jayhawks typically rugged schedule.The video was really good. I had no idea, Self said. Seeing some of those men, those guys were just kids when we had them, and some of them are over 40 years old now. Seeing some of those guys up there, that was very meaningful. That was very cool.Graham was 6 of 8 from beyond the arc and finished with 18 points for the Jayhawks (8-1), while Svi Mykhailiuk added 10 points and seven rebounds off the bench.LaVell Boyd had 17 points for the Roos, who have never beaten Kansas in seven tries.Of course, this game against UMKC (6-4) was essentially over the moment the contract was signed.Kansas opened a 10-point lead before the 4-minute mark, extended the advantage to 51-35 by the break, then reeled off the first 10 points of the second half to put it away.Thats not to say Self enjoyed every minute of his milestone win.There was the pass that Jackson threw to the second row of seats late in the first half. There were the missed block-outs by Landen Lucas that gave the Roos extra opportunities. And there was a turnover that prompted Self to let rip a PG-13 tirade that could be heard almost everywhere in an otherwise quiet gym.What are you guys doing? he asked. What are you frickin doing?Hardly missing a shot. The Jayhawks were 15 of 27 from beyond the arc, shot 57 percent for the game and rolled to their nation-leading 45th consecutive victory at Allen Fieldhouse.Not to mention a memorable win for their coach.I cant even fathom that, Roos coach Kareem Richardson said of Selfs 600th victory, but thats an awesome feat. And hell have a heck of a lot more wins to go with that.NO CRYING IN BASKETBALLThere were plenty of hugs for Self in the locker room, and Jackson said some of the players tried to get their coach to cry. Success? Nah, they werent going to do that, Self said. All Ive got to do is think about how we shoot free throws -- I cry when Im that mad.UMKCS MAIN GOALThe Roos hardly planned to roll over, but they also kept things in perspective. I mean, at the end of the day, we still want to get better as a team as well. Thats all we wanted to do tonight is get better, Boyd said. Asked whether that happened, he replied: Not really.BIG PICTUREUMKC could sorely use senior guard Martez Harrison, the teams second-leading scorer. He missed his fourth consecutive game while serving an indefinite suspension due to a violation of school policy.Kansas has not been tested through the first four games of a six-game homestand. The closest anybody has come to the Jayhawks was Stanford, which lost 89-74 last weekend. That was also the only time Kansas has been held under 90 points during those four games.UP NEXTUMKC plays Division II school William Jewell on Saturday.Kansas plays former Big 12 rival Nebraska on Saturday.

Philadelphia was handed a 6-3 loss by the visiting Tampa Bay Lightning on Saturday afternoon before dropping a 4-1 decision to the Rangers the following night in New York City. From the outside, it may look like the Indiana Hoosiers are rebuilding again.Three of last seasons top five scorers, including record-breaking point guard Kevin Yogi Ferrell, are gone and the only senior on the roster, forward Collin Hartman, is out indefinitely after knee surgery in September.Inside the newly renovated and renamed Simon Skjdot Assembly Hall, coaches and players see things differently. They believe theres enough talent still around to give the defending Big Ten champions a shot at a second straight conference crown.Everybodys eager to learn, eager to get things right. We want to get things right and compete at a high level, sophomore center Thomas Bryant said. The athleticism has gotten better as well with this team, and everybody is just eager to get out there and play.Certainly, there is work to do.But coach Tom Crean has dealt with far worse. And this time, Crean begins with a stronger foundation.When the 6-foot-10 Bryant bypassed the NBA draft, the Hoosiers were given a talented and energetic inside presence. Sharp-shooting guard James Blackmon Jr. also returns after missing the second half of last season because of knee surgery. Versatile guard Robert Johnson appears ready to fill the leadership void left by Ferrells departure and sophomore forwards OG Anunoby and Juwan Morgan are expected to progress after showing so much promise last season.Plus, the Hoosiers are deep. Guard Josh Newkirk is ready after transferring from Pittsburgh, junior college transfer Freddie McSwain Jr. could be an immediate contributor and the incoming freshmen are lead forwards DeRon Davis and Curtis Jones.Indiana believes that should be enough to finish the job. All they have to do now is prove it.Older teams have a hard time understanding how important it is to communicate with each other. Young teams really have no idea, Crean said. Even though we have some experienced guys, they are now going to have to be those expperienced guys in the realm of taking real control of the team.ddddddddddddHere are some other things to watch this season:FIND THE POINTIts never easy to replace someone like Ferrell, a four-year starter who played on two Sweet 16 teams and is the Hoosiers career assists leader. And it may take more than one player to do it. Johnson and Newkirk are likely to get the bulk of the early work, but they are different kinds of floor leaders from Ferrell. Expect Crean to do some mixing and matching early in the season to see what he has at that position.INJURIESIn addition to Hartman , Morgan (shoulder surgery) and McSwain (knee surgery) were not cleared to practice when fall workouts began. Johnsons offseason ankle surgery limited his early workouts. Blackmon, meanwhile, insists hes healthy.I dont just feel like Im back, I feel like Im better than I was, he said. And I feel like Ill be able to show that this season.SCHEDULING TOUGHAt Big Ten media day, Crean joked that this seasons non-conference slate was the result of poor scheduling. Kidding aside, the Hoosiers do have a remarkably difficult November and December. They open the season Nov. 11 against Kansas, host North Carolina on Nov. 30 and play Butler (Dec. 17) and Louisville (Dec. 31) in Indianapolis. The good news: Indiana should know how good it really is when league play begins.THE REASSMEBLY LINEAlmost 20 months after construction began on the Hoosiers home court, they will christen the renovated arena Nov. 16 against UMass-Lowell. What can fans expect? A new three-story entryway with a grand staircase, which doubles as a kind of Indiana museum full of iconic mementoes, new seats, repainted floors, more easily accessible concession stands and, of course, the new name.---AP college basketball website: http://collegebasketball.ap.org/ ' ' '
