<p>Kansas men's basketball coach Bill Self was transported to Lawrence Memorial Hospital on Thursday after he "experienced some concerning symptoms," according to a statement from Kansas Athletics.</p>
<p>Self had two stents inserted during a heart procedure that "went very well," and he is expected to make a full recovery.</p>
<p>"He is in good spirits and expects to be released from the hospital soon."</p>
