LAWRENCE, Kan. – Kansas men’s basketball coach Bill Self officially announced Monday that freshman guard Milton Doyle has decided not to return to KU following the summer.

“We spoke to Milt at length Sunday on what we thought his role would be within our program,” Self said. “We discussed his options and the first option was welcoming him back for the fall. His leaving is entirely his own choice, one that he felt was best for his future.”

“We expected him to be here but he thought it was better for him to go to a place where he had a better opportunity to impact a program early in his career,” Self said. “We wish nothing but the best for him. He is a great kid.”
