KU coach Bill Self calls late Brannen Greene dunk against K-State ‘classless’ (+video)

Kansas basketball coach Bill Self was unhappy about the way his team’s 77-59 victory against Kansas State ended on Wednesday at Allen Fieldhouse.

The game appeared as though it would end 75-59. The Jayhawks possessed the ball, the shot clock was off and they had no reason to attempt a shot. But Brannen Greene drove to the basket and dunked with one second remaining.

“That was probably the biggest (expletive) move I’ve ever had a player do during a game,” Self said during his postgame radio interview. “To dunk the ball like that when the other team -- even their players are going, ‘How disrespectful to the game.’ It certainly showed unbelievable poor sportsmanship.”

Self also opened his postgame news conference by apologizing to K-State, calling the incident “totally classless.”

Greene was suspended by Self for five games earlier this season, and Self referenced that punishment Wednesday night.

“We’ve put up with him doing some stuff in the past,” Self said. “... I guarantee that will never happen again or he will never be in the game at the end.”

K-State coach Bruce Weber had little to say about the dunk, saying it was a Kansas deal.

KU and K-State will meet later this season on Feb. 20 at Bramlage Coliseum.
