08:24 AM ET 01.31 | In its recent loss at Iowa State, Kansas' reserves combined for five points on 2-for-12 shooting to go along with two rebounds, an assist and five fouls in just under 30 minutes. Depth is an issue obviously for the Jayhawks, and it could become even more telling during the course of the newly expanded 18-game conference schedule. "It will feel a little bit different moving forward," Self said Monday when asked about the league grind during the Big 12 coaches teleconference. "We're a team that plays five guys basically 30-plus minutes. That's one of my concerns. How do we keep our guys fresh, not only physically but mentally through a grind?" Halfway through the Big 12 schedule is too early to get a true assessment of wear and tear.

Self just needs 7-8 ballers who will do what Danny Manning & the miracles did to win KU's national trophy.
