08:24 AM ET 08.02 | For Bill Self, there will come a time to stress defense to his freshmen-laden squad. For now, however, during the dog days of summer -- and 10 bonus practices allowed by the NCAA in advance of next week's European tour -- it's offense that's getting all of the reps. "I will say this ... we're not going to work on defense one possession," Self said. "We're not going to talk about it because if our defense is good that means we'll never score, and I have to somehow get these guys some confidence scoring the ball. I haven't said one word about defense yet," he added. "I am pretty confident we can teach them how to guard and that kind of stuff. That's never been an issue."
