Kansas coach Bill Self had a heart-to-heart talk with Thomas Robinson prior to Wednesday’s 84-62 rout of Oklahoma.

“Coach told me that I’m not playing like the player I’m capable of being,” Robinson said.

Robinson had scored 13 points with just seven boards in Saturday’s loss at Iowa State and looked a bit lethargic in three consecutive games.

“He’s been stressed all week complaining to me why I’m not being aggressive anymore,” Robinson said. “I just wanted to be aggressive from the jump tonight.”

Robinson responded with 20 points and 17 rebounds against Oklahoma.

“Thomas hadn’t been himself for the last three games,” Self said. “But he was tonight ... so positive and into it. In Ames and against (Texas) A&M and Texas ... he had so much going on with the anniversary (of his mom’s death). He was worried about missing shots. He didn’t get an offensive rebound against Iowa State. (If) the best rebounder in the country can’t get an offensive rebound, he is not being who he is. He did a better job going after the ball tonight, obviously. He got 17 rebounds.”
