Any criticism about the team should be directed at me,” the Jayhawks coach said after guard Zeke Mayo was the target of vitriol on social media.

Kansas guard Zeke Mayo was the subject of threatening and racist messages on social media after the team's 78-73 home loss Saturday to No. 10 Texas Tech, prompting coach Bill Self to issue a late night statement requesting any criticism about the team be directed instead at him.

We didn’t guard the arc whatsoever,” the KU basketball coach said. “And of course, that was the difference in the game.”

Kansas coach Bill Self didn't directly address racist comments leveled at one of his players. Zeke Mayo got called racist names after a loss.
