A longtime assistant coach on Bill Self's staff is calling it a career.

 

Norm Roberts is retiring after 37 years as a coach, in which he served as a KU assistant since 2012, and also coached with Self at Oral Roberts, Tulsa, and Illinois.

 

Roberts is a member of the Assistant Coaches Hall of Fame, and served six seasons as the head coach at St. John's University from 2004-10, where he went 109-185. He says he will forever be a part of the Kansas family.

 

The Jayhawks will conduct a nationwide search for a new assistant coach.
