Kansas head coach Bill Self was hospitalized Thursday after experiencing "some concerning symptoms," the school announced in a statement obtained by CBS Sports' Jon Rothstein.

Self underwent a heart procedure to insert two stents and is expected to make a full recovery.

The 62-year-old is in "good spirits" and expects to be released from the hospital soon.

Self missed the 2023 Big 12 and NCAA Tournament due to a heart condition.

The Hall of Famer has spent the last 22 years with the Jayhawks, posting a 624-156 record and guiding the program to a pair of national championships.

Kansas inked Self to a lifetime contract extension in 2021.
