Jeremy Case Promoted to Associate Head Coach for Kansas Men’s Hoops – University of Kansas
A former guard for the Jayhawks, Case joined the staff in August 2016 and was promoted to a full-time assistant coach in April 2021. With Case on staff, which includes 2009 when he was a graduate student, Kansas has won one NCAA National Championship, five Big 12 regular-season championships and one Big 12 Tournament title. Additionally, KU has advanced to three NCAA Tournament Sweet 16s, an NCAA Elite Eight, and one Final Four during Case’s time on the staff.
“Jeremy has done a tremendous job as an assistant coach since 2021,” Self said. “He has played a big role both on the court and in the new world of college basketball recruiting.
“Jeremy and I discussed this promotion last spring but delayed announcing it with the staff changes we had going into the summer. I’m very excited for Jeremy and his family. He’s a rising star in the profession.”
Player development has been key with Case on staff as Kansas has produced nine Consensus All-America selections. Additionally, there have been more than 50 Big 12 postseason awards won by Jayhawks during Case’s stint on staff.
With Case on the KU staff, 11 Jayhawks have been selected in the NBA Draft, and more than 25 players have played professionally either in the NBA, the NBA G-League or overseas.
“I am incredibly grateful for this opportunity to continue my development at a place that is so special to me,” Case said. “Having the chance each day to work for a Hall of Fame coach is such an honor. I’m thankful to Coach Self for the belief he has in me as a coach and am very excited to continue to work with a great staff.”
Case came to KU after four seasons as an assistant coach at Houston Baptist University. Prior to HBU, Case spent three seasons as an assistant coach at Southeast Missouri State.
Case was a member of Kansas’ 2008 NCAA National Championship team and after graduation was on the KU staff while taking graduate courses at KU for the 2008-09 season.
A native of McAlester, Oklahoma, who was a redshirt in 2004-05, Case played in 94 games while at Kansas and won four Big 12 regular-season and three Big 12 Tournament championships. Including the 2008 title, Case was part of three NCAA Elite Eight teams while playing at KU.
A redshirt in 2004-05, Case earned his bachelor’s degree in communications in 2007 and was a two-time Academic All-Big 12 First Team honoree in 2006 and 2008.
The Minnesota Twins were defeated 3-1 by the Kansas City Royals, who used home runs by Kyle Isbel and Isaac Collins, two hitters not known for their power, on an unseasonably warm day in front of a sellout crowd of 39,320 in Kansas City’s home opener.
The temperature at first pitch on Monday was 85 degrees.
In the first game at Kauffman Stadium since the Royals moved in the fences 8 to 10 feet, all four runs scored on home runs. However, all three home runs also would have been out with the old dimensions.
Kris Bubic (1-0) picked up the win for Kansas City. He allowed one run on two hits in six innings. John Schreiber pitched the ninth for his first save.
Simeon Woods Richardson (0-1) took the loss for the Twins.
Both Woods Richardson and Bubic were effective, though neither was brilliant. Woods Richardson allowed just two runs but on five hits. Bubic walked three. Both starters allowed baserunners in all but one inning.
Bubic was the third straight Royals starter to pitch at least six innings with one or fewer runs allowed after Michael Wacha allowed no runs in 6 innings Saturday and Seth Lugo allowed no runs in 6 1/3 innings on Sunday.
Matt Wallner opened the scoring in the second inning for the Twins with a 424-foot home run that nearly reached the fountains in right-center.
The Royals answered with two runs in the bottom of the inning when Isbel’s homer landed in the Royals bullpen in right field. Isbel managed only four home runs in all of 2025.
Collins then extended the lead to 3-1 with a 400-foot blast into the Twins bullpen in the seventh. It was Collins’ first hit this season, having started the season 0-for-8.
